 The Daylight Lounge is the library's popular reading and watching collection. Essentially, it's filled with the things you want to read and watch, not the things you have to. Books and movies are recommended by Western students, faculty, and staff. You can make a recommendation anytime using a simple form on the Daylight Lounge website. Most materials are pretty new, no more than one and a half years old, unless something old came back into style, like a book that was recently made into a movie. The space also has new, comfy furniture and big windows that let in the rare Pacific Northwest Daylight, hence the name. This makes it a great place to study. One of the best things about the Daylight Lounge is that new items are added every quarter, so check back often to find a great new book or a newly released movie.
