See the world, eat snacks from across the globe, and win prizes, all from the comfort of the Bentley Library!

Come play GeoGuessr—a fun online game that utilizes Google Earth to drop you in a random spot on the globe! Move around the map to try to determine your location, and earn points based on how close your guesses are. Will you end up in the fjords of Norway, or trekking through the Amazon? Get a top score and select a beautiful travel book as a prize!

Drop in for one round or stay for the entire time. All are eligible to win!

Are you curious about the “world” of resources that the Library offers? Visit the Library lobby all week during Culture Fest to see a pop-up display of books and movies from across the globe!

Do you already have a favorite book or movie from a diverse voice or place that’s not in our collection? Let us know by placing a title into our suggestion box, and we’ll consider adding it. You can also give us your suggestions on Twitter and Instagram using the hashtag #BentleyLibraryWishlist.

While you’re browsing, visit our giant world map and pinpoint the location where you or your ancestors came from. And of course it’s not a Library event without buttons! We’ll have CultureFest buttons, national flag buttons, and more for you to add to your collection.
