Displays vs. Exhibits

Exhibits: Any member of the campus community can apply to make an exhibit in the Library. Exhibits are required to follow guidelines, go through the Library Exhibit Selection Committee for approval or disqualification, and are responsible for all set-up and take-down. The Library does not claim any responsibility for lost or stolen items from an exhibit. 

Displays:  Displays may change often and include new books, holiday themes, and instructional themes. The Library will manage and coordinate the displays, but displays will not go through the Exhibit Selection Committee for approval. The committee is only responsible for tracking Displays for future documentation (see here).
