Spotted in the stacks: this scavenger hunt in the pages of Wilson Library’s copy of The whole treati

Spotted in the stacks: this scavenger hunt in the pages of Wilson Library’s copy of The whole treatise of the cases of conscience, distingvished into three bookes (1632).  At first, these reader annotations (by former owner William Gasker) seemed like a normal treasure hunt until I realized: 

1) The hunt leads the reader in an infinite loop

2) The page numbers didn’t match up with the actual pages I turned through.  Turns out, this was because the pages were bound out of order! (Page order was actually 96, 101, 102, 103, 104, 97, 98, 99, 100, 109, 110, 111, 112, 105, 106, 107, 108, 113, 114, 115)

Not sure if this weird scavenger hunt is the annotator’s way of drawing attention to the misbound pages or if the scavenger hunt actually leads to a huge Da-Vinci Code-esque revelation if you use some sort of top secret cipher.  

Intrigued? Come visit Wilson Library and solve the mystery yourself!

Want to meet some of your community members? Join our second of six days of community fun and connection! Tomorrow, Day Two of “Peace, Love, & Trans Joy: A Virtual Home for the Holidays,” is our game day!

Join us for a day of games and prizes. At 1 pm EST, we have a scavenger hunt! At 4 pm EST, we’ll be playing bingo. And we’ll be doing trivia night starting at 7 pm EST. Register for just one or all three here: bit.ly/TEPgameday

We want to give our community a space to come together safely and frequently for the holidays. Despite the hurt we have individually and collectively felt this year, we can be your home this season.

interest check

ive been thinking about making an inaturalist project thats set up like a scavenger hunt, that anyone can join

im thinking i make it a traditional project so people just add their observations that fit the scavenger hunt list. id make a list every month of various stuff to find that should be univeral enough - for example, maybe a mushroom, a purple flower, an animal track, etc, but NOT specific organisms bc they might not be found globally so it would be unfair (like, finding an american giant millipede would be rude to everyone not in the eastern half of north america)

depending on how it goes i might make themed lists but thats a discussion for a later time. also, expect the lists have a mix of difficulty levels because if its all easy or all hard its no fun

would anyone be interested in joining something like this? anyone have ideas and input?

This was something I wanted to do with the tumblr inat project but I’m too busy to coordinate. Would you be interested in being a co-moderator of the tumblr inat group and running the scavenger hunts through there?

Scavenger Hunt winners under the cut!

@the-bub-sawyer

everyone else who takes a crack at it and submits their entry (without copying their answers!) will still get a prize but not an art prize because I work close to full time. 

Thanks so much for playing!
