Living Library Webinar Held Successfully
On 18th May, the 31st Living Library with the theme “From One to Infinity” was successfully held online. This time, XJTLU Library invited three “living books”, namely Yangyang DING, Yunfan CHEN, and Wenlan XIONG, to share their personal stories with XJTLUers. Their topics are Meditations on the Epidemic, Youth Leadership in the VUCA World, and Jump into the Serendipity of University Life.
The webinar lasted for one and a half hours and the participants were very enthusiastic. Although the COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically changed our lives, it gives us more time to read and think, try something different, and discover our true self. We believe that those looking for new opportunities will find ripe opportunities in the future.
