Finding the Finals Fairy: Outreach and stress release during finals
Abstract
Salisbury University (SU) Libraries has a visitor who comes at the end of every semester, staying for approximately one week. Her name is familiar to the students, and her arrival is heralded on social media and via posters around campus. She is the Finals Fairy. She serves many purposes, but her primary function is to provide stress relief to students in the midst of their finals. Susan Brazer first came up with the idea in the fall 2011, and SU Libraries has continued with her every fall and spring semester since.
