No exams or assessments. No assignments due.

Welcome to the spring semester Reading Day, the pause between the finish of classes and the start of finals. Whether you work ahead on papers or study for upcoming tests, everyone can agree it puts a nice bow on the in-class part of the semester.

In a typical semester, Falvey would welcome the community to an epic finals event. Think dessert bars and unlimited games!

This year, to help students de-stress, we are distributing fun finals kits today, 2-4 p.m.!

Shawn Proctor, Communications and Marketing Program Manager at Falvey Memorial Library, suggests Speakers’ Corner as a great study space for finals.

Happy Friday, Wildcats!

Looking for a quiet place to place to study? The Old Falvey patio (and library lawn) are perfect spots for reading. The library building is open 24/7! A wildcard is required to enter, and a mask must be worn while visiting. Information services are available at the service desk and online Monday-Friday, 9 a.m.-5 p.m.

Be sure to return library materials borrowed by Tuesday, May 11. Students will be billed for materials not returned by this date. Login to your library account and view your checked out materials. Questions? Email circ@villanova.edu. 

Good luck on finals, Nova Nation!
