I distinctly recall the first time I wandered into the Patee Mall to enter the Patte-Paterno Library; it felt like I was walking into this. While I did not stroll by to search for the Holy Grail, I wanted to take a look around one of the best university libraries in the country.

I quickly realized that I had no idea where I was. Since the structure itself is twice the size of my high school, it didn’t take long for me to get lost.

To not end up like me, the library is hosting their 11th annual Open House on September 12-13. An overly excited Nittany Lion on the event page tells us that there’s even a chance to win an iPad!

Anyways, there’s always lots of free stuff to be had, so it wouldn’t be a bad idea to stop by in case you need to use the library one day.
