Share what you’re watching and reading through Padlet

Our librarians created something fun through Padlet where you can share what you are reading and watching during this time! Maybe these ideas from the Salve Regina community can help you out, too.

Here’s just a few other fun things we’re enjoying right now! We hope you will find them delightful, too.

The McKillop Library staff hopes each one of you have a wonderful weekend and an opportunity to relax. Stay strong and healthy, and keep learning!
