We have a very good library with very helpful staff and the library is probably the single best location to do your reading and studying. Since you will be using the library for later assignments in this course, and it will certainly be an essential resource throughout your time at UNI, I thought I’d try to make sure you have found some of the library services you are most likely to use ( I couldn't include everything).  While you are there I also encourage you to find a quiet corner where you can do your studying all semester, away from the distractions of roommates, TV, internet, games and your bed!

Fill in the blanks:  (you can do this with classmates since nowadays the library is a social place, with only the 4th floor reserved as as QUIET area.) You will find all sorts of group seating configurations on floors 1-3  to allow you to meet and work with others or just socialize.

Please begin the scavenger hunt at the main library entrance that is across from Maucker Union.

It is probably no surprise that you check out books at the counter closest to this library entrance. This spot is known as the (see the overhead sign) : ______________________________ . You can also check out media, calculators, laptops, chargers, headphones and "Reserve Readings" for your courses and get keys to the library's study rooms (if there's one available). Here you can also call for an Escort if you are walking home late at night.  If you continue down that check-out counter towards its very end you will find _________________________ for you to use when needed.

If, when you entered the library, you turned Right instead of Left, you would find restrooms and further on, the library's classroom.

Walking straight back from the library entrance you’ll find large circular area known as the ________________________, manned by some of the library's best question answerers! Most often there will be more than 1 person there to help you – in fact there are chairs/stations for ________ librarians or assistants at that desk.  If you also look BEHIND this long desk you'll find the area known as the ________________
___________      ____________with all sorts of equipment and resources to spark your creativity.

Continue walking past the Information Desk to the smaller desk just beyond it. What kind of help do they offer here? __________________
Now continue even further back until you come to the large overhead clock, then turn right. You will be facing a number of shelves of books. The left-hand most of those shelves (closest to the booth seating area) is the library's Career Collection, a great set of career and job-hunting resources that you should begin to explore early in your time at UNI. Check the BF section on the Career Collection shelves and count about how many books there are related to careers (or majoring in) in Psychology _________. Whatever your career interests, you should explore this career collection long before your senior year!

The remaining shelves in this area hold books that are part of the non-circulating  _____________________. Find the books that have call numbers beginning with RC 300-RC 1000. What kinds/topics of books are these? ______________________________________________   (That is because Psychology overlaps with the field of Medicine so some Psych books are located in the Medical region of the stacks.)

Look for RM666   What is this about? _____________________________

Return back towards the clock and notice that if you completed your walk of the length of the library, you would come to the second library entrance that faces (outside) the __________________. Next to that entrance is the snack bar known as the  ___________________.
If you walk past the snack bar to the opposite wall of the library, you will find shelves that hold books from the Cedar Falls Public Library that you can check out, as well as recent DVDs, recent newspapers and some games you can play with your friends. To show that you have found these shelves, name one of the games that are available here:   ________________________.  

To the left of the Cedar Falls Public Library books are the main elevators, which - in the future  - you might take up to the 3rd or 4th floor.
Each of these floors holds part of the circulating book collection (those with a call number beginning with A-K are on 3 and those beginning with L-Z are on 4). On the 3rd floor you'd also fine the "Special Collection and University Archives" as well as the "Youth Collection" useful to those pursuing teacher education. On the 4th floor you'd also find the "Fine and Performing Arts (Music) Collection" and, beyond that, more DVDs and videos.

Now head down to the basement level using the main staircase near the front entrance (Note: the basement is Floor 1, the floor that you just explored in Floor 2). The first thing you’ll see as you come down the stairs is the ___________________________.
