About Northwestern University Library Exhibits:
Northwestern University Library Exhibits promote the educational mission of the University Library, reflecting the intellectual quality of its collections and the Library's role as a center for learning.
Exhibits at Northwestern University Library promote the educational and research mission of the University by:
- drawing attention to Northwestern University Library collections and services in creative, attractive, and thought-provoking ways
- making connections between Northwestern University Library resources in all formats and the University's research and teaching agendas
- highlighting specific Northwestern University Library resources relevant to notable historical topics, anniversaries, and current events
- promoting interdisciplinary approaches to research and teaching
- encouraging cooperation between library units, departments, and specific collections--and between the library and departments and schools on campus
- provoking thought and stimulating intellectual curiosity
From time to time, the Library hosts exhibits created by organizations outside the Library or Northwestern. In all such instances, however, the connection with Northwestern University Library resources must be implicitly clear--or made explicit. The Library does not host exhibits with the sole or principal purpose of promoting agendas of organizations outside the Library, or to advocate for specific political, philosophical, or religious viewpoints.
