Leisure Reading Opportunities
Reading for pleasure is a positive habit we support through our leisure reading collections and subscriptions to magazines and newspapers.
The main collection of leisure reading books is located next to Roesch Library’s first-floor lobby. You’ll see bestsellers, new releases, popular romance and graphic medicine.
In addition to print magazines and newspapers, University Libraries provides online access to publications such as The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, National Geographic, Vogue, Rolling Stone and more.
The Cameron Corner is a collection of books and a comfortable reading nook, located in the northeast corner of the fifth floor. The majority of the books belonged to the late Alex J. Cameron (1937–2003) an English professor at the University of Dayton and the official pronouncer of the Scripps National Spelling Bee from 1981 to 2002. The space was established to honor Cameron and his love of reading.
