Academic libraries are finding new ways to attract students by thinking outside the box and making changes to become more relevant spaces on campus. Some strategies that have worked for libraries include adding Wii gaming systems, board games, relaxing spaces, snacks from vending machines, and displays focused on popular fiction. Successful libraries also hold special fundraising events and ensure that staff are happy and busy helping students. The goal is for the library to be seen as the place to be on campus.
