On May 21, 2025, the Curriculum and Learning Support Department of Boromarajonani College of Nursing, Nakhon Phanom, Nakhon Phanom University, organized a “Little Librarians at Work” activity in conjunction with the “Living Library” under the theme “Post-it Heal Your Heart.” This initiative transformed the quiet library into a space for sharing and positive energy, inviting everyone to unleash positive vibes through Post-it notes. Participants also received recommendations for good books to help them through tiring days and had the chance to win cute prizes.

Many students participated in the event, as the library opened beyond regular hours. Members of the academic club acted as assistant librarians, providing services. This allowed students from the Bachelor of Nursing Science program, who are currently attending summer classes, to borrow and return books, and to develop research and innovation projects. This effort aims to enhance learning resources and ensure the library is not just a place to read, but a space for growth, encouragement, and sharing, benefiting students’ learning and serving as an excellent example of user-responsive service.
