Library Exhibitions Review is published annually by the ARLIS/NA Exhibitions Special Interest Group. Our inaugural issue was published in Spring 2023. We are in the process of putting together our fourth issue!
Recognizing that exhibitions and displays are integral to library services, and building on the publication of its ARLIS/NA Best Practices for Library Exhibitions in 2021, ARLIS/NA launched the Library Exhibitions Review (LER) to promote these best practices and enhance the visibility of library exhibitions.
What We Are Looking For
We are looking for recommendations of library or archive exhibitions held between 2025-2026 to be reviewed by our reviewers. Exhibitions can be physical or virtual format, but must be open to the public.
- Full title of the exhibition
- Exhibition location (online or physical location)
- A brief description about the exhibition
- URL (if applicable)Example exhibitions can include a display case or a gallery installation, a loan/traveling exhibit, a digital exhibit featuring library-owned content, or a digital exhibit hosted by the library. There is no restriction on types of libraries or archives that may participate.
Please submit exhibition recommendations by October 31 2025 through our Exhibition Suggestion Form
