Digital library escape rooms: Are you up for the challenge?

Enjoy a puzzle? Want to learn more about the library? Need to entertain yourself in between classes? Try our library escape rooms! 

These digital challenges are designed to help you learn more about the library and our services in a fun and interactive way. You’ll have to look for clues, engage with the library website and solve puzzles to make it out. 

We’ve got one for the Burwood, Waurn Ponds and Waterfront campuses (Warrnambool is still under development!) and a general online version that’ll help you navigate our website and using the library in general. 

Find out more about each of our escape rooms below and choose your challenge!

It’s got jigsaw puzzles, information about finding and accessing items in the library collection, and an introduction to some useful digital tools and resources.

Take a virtual tour of the library’s three levels, meet a troublesome ghost, translate a binary code – all very normal experiences as you get started at uni.

Waurn Ponds

From our book staircase to our library cafe and the secret society of animals running a smuggling ring from our library, we’ve really got it all at Waurn Ponds.

Waterfront Library welcomes you to explore our comfy Reading Nook, take a look at our Verge display screens, and enjoy the view out across the water. Oh, and we’ve also got lots of resources and support to help you succeed in your studies! 

Try your hand and take some advice from Rick Astley – never give up on solving our escape rooms!
