Situation:
The library’s new book scanner isn’t just high-tech… it’s time-travel tech! A group of students accidentally set it off... and now the entire library is stuck flipping between time periods! To escape and bring the library back to the present, students must collect Time Tokens from different time periods by finding clues hidden in the library.
Directions:
Look at the clues to the left of the Google Form. To find the hidden Time Tokens, you will need to locate the correct books in the library (using the call numbers provided) and find the hidden clues within the books. Type your answers into the Google Form. Answers should be lowercase letters with no spaces. Be sure to return all materials exactly where you found them-- refer to the arrows taped on the shelves. When you are finished, tell us the final code word at the circulation desk in order to get your prize.
Finish early? Look for library books, while you wait for the rest of your class to finish up!
Be sure to match the question number on the left with the correct number on the Google Form on the right when you are typing in your answers.
