The University Library will host Welcome Week for students Oct. 3-7.

University Library plans to welcome students back to campus with a Pokémon GO-themed scavenger hunt, games with the chance to win prizes and an opportunity to meet the librarians.

The annual event, in its fifth year, will run Oct. 3 to Oct. 7.
