Welcome students!
When you have had enough studying and need a break, bust a little of your exam-related stress with these suggested activities. This guide collects many online versions of the stress busters you are used to in the library. We understand you may be missing the library reading room as a place to unwind, socialize, and really get some studying done in the coming weeks. We hope these resources will help bring what you love about the law library's physical space to your screen, wherever you are.
