UCF COM Health Sciences Library

We kicked off our annual Summer Social program for staff and faculty at the college with a fun Speed Puzzling event last Thursday! Attendees could work individually or in teams in a race to see who could finish constructing their puzzle first.

If puzzle competitions aren’t your thing, you can always come by the library and visit our regular puzzle table throughout the year for a more low stakes puzzling experience ☺️🧩

Why yes, we are still around this summer, and would love to see you! Keep an eye out for notifications of fun library events, and let us know if we can be of any help to your research or studying.

The vibes were perfect at the college’s Spring Soirée this afternoon - we brought our button machine along to spread a little extra joy 🌸✨

The stage is all set - it’s time for some dreams to come true for our Class of 2026 MD grads ✨

Happy National Library Week! This week we invite you to discover and celebrate your library joy - what sparks joy for you when you visit our library? Is it the candy bowl? Library Llama?
