During this intense exam period, the library's Immersive Reading Activity returns right on schedule, offering you a warm harbor for stress relief. The session begins with soothing immersive reading—letting soft prose slow your breathing and calm your thoughts. Afterward, we’ll share study strategies and exam tips to help you build steady momentum for your final sprint.

Each moment of tranquil reading, each period of quiet reflection, builds up an invisible yet powerful boost for your finals. May every WKUer walk into the exam hall with this ease and conviction, transforming the belief of "It's just finals—I can handle this with ease!" into a natural flow from your pen. May you succeed in your exams, honoring all the dedication and hopes you have quietly nurtured.
