Leisure Reading for the Summer of 2026 & University Libraries

The phrase “Reading Is Fundamental,” is a common refrain when it comes to involvement within the educational experience and with support from the University Libraries this becomes an ongoing exercise in mutual learning and intellectual support.

With the Spring semester over and the observance of “Get Caught Reading Month” which is celebrated in May, the opportunities for finding a book(s) to read for pleasure becomes easier and a satisfying way to build on your own growing levels of knowledge.

The University Libraries offers several titles that are designated as volumes for borrow within our “Leisure Collection” which offers the students the opportunity to read non-academic focused works alone. This is a growing collection and the pleasure reading segment can be found within the SHU Leisure Titles catalog.
