The end of the semester can be a stressful time for students, faculty, and staff alike. Milner Library is pleased to share resources to help the Illinois State community wrap up the semester successfully.  

Finals Thrive Kits 

Stop by the Reference Desk beginning December 11 to pick up a free Finals Thrive Kit. Kits will include supplies to help you balance productivity and wellness, such as stationery kits, highlighters, tea, and more.  

Therapy lamps 

Did you know that Milner Library has therapy lamps available to borrow? You can request them at the Circulation Desk, just like any other loanable technology. Find the full technology catalog at Library.IllinoisState.edu, and thanks to Illinois State Health Promotion and Wellness for donating the lamps to help reduce stress campus-wide! 

PAWSitively Stress Free 

Join Health Promotion and Wellness and Milner Library on December 11 and 12 and get PAWSitively Stress Free! Take a study or work break to pet-certified therapy dogs, sign up for a five-minute chair massage, and enjoy other stress-relieving activities! Activities are held on the third floor of Milner Library from 1–3 p.m. 

Mental Health resources through Redbird Well 

Finals help you check in on your academic progress but don’t forget to check in on your emotional well-being in the rush to finish the semester. Redbird Well provides mental health screenings, support, training and awareness building, clinical resources, and more.
