Winner of TLA’s LIRT Project of the Year, 2025: Library instruction plays a crucial role in equipping students with tools to navigate resources, develop research skills, and succeed in environments like Southwestern University. Traditional instruction, while informative, often fails to fully engage students or make learning stick. As libraries strive to create effective learning experiences, it’s vital to incorporate interactive methods that resonate with students. Our customized online escape game stands as a prime example of a creative and impactful library instruction project.
