Silva Lu, an access service librarian at Zimmerman Library, decided to help UNM students deal with stress during finals.
Lu was inspired by a National Public Radio story about a Yale librarian who brought his dog to campus during finals so students could take their minds off of finals and relax. Lu contacted the Southwest Canine Corps of Volunteers, who bring dogs to those in need all over the Southwest. From schools to hospitals, the canines are appreciated wherever they go.
