Abstract
As a small library at a newly opened regional campus, the team at the Tampa Bay Regional Campus Library sought to build community and an inclusive culture. This desire, along with the aims to increase patron engagement, highlight library offerings, and provide an outlet for stress relief and mindfulness, led to the development of a monthly book display with physical, virtual, and social media components. Over time, the book display developed from a personal project to a larger effort involving most members of the library team. This project helped increase engagement and raise the library's profile on campus.
