Hi James, 

We use Goosechase for the library scavenger hunt. The orientation manager at my 
engineering school began using it for orientation events last fall. Since then, 
several professors and I have adapted it to create a question set for the 
library. Most students are already familiar with the app, so there are no 
barriers to using and installing software on their devices. A delightful aspect 
is having students take photos at points of interest, which allows us to create 
fantastic collages for internal marketing materials. 


Best,

Subject: [CODE4LIB] Software for Library Scavenger hunt

Hi All,

Is anyone using software for a Library Scavenger hunt? We've used paper 
printouts in the past and had students get oriented to the library by 
completing tasks and collecting clues.

I'm curious if anyone does an online scavenger hunt and if so, what software 
they use?

Thanks for reading,
James
