[hidetoc]Library Exhibit Space
The University Library lobby is available for exhibits. Faculty, staff, and student organizations are encouraged to use the exhibit area to promote projects, special events, and other campus activities.
Scheduling an Exhibit
To display your exhibit, contact the Administrative Office, Room 220, in the University Library (715-232-3788). You must contact the Library at least two full weeks before the desired exhibit date.
Information Needed Regarding Exhibit
- Describe the exhibit
- Give desired dates of the exhibit
- Discuss dates of setup and take down
- Designate display equipment needed
- Determine required floor space. Take into account that the walkways to Reference go through the exhibit area and cannot be blocked due to fire code regulations and need for clear aisles for persons with disabilities.
After the Administrative Office is contacted , a letter will be sent to confirm a reservation of the Exhibit Area. The "Art Exhibit Protection Memorandum" and "Art Inventory Forms" will also be attached. The insurance forms protect you in case something happens to your exhibit.
Please read, sign, date, and return the insurance forms to the Administrative Office five days before the beginning of the exhibit.
Then, contact Amy Miranda(x3788) one week before the scheduled exhibit to arrange a time to setup and take down the exhibit.
