Exhibits at MPAL serve an educational purpose and are intended to help disseminate knowledge while sharing unique materials in the Library’s collections. MPAL also accepts submissions from students to design exhibits that facilitate the sharing of their research and creative activity.
Student Exhibits
Are you a student that just completed a research or design project? Did you use several of MPAL’s resources to prepare for a recital or complete a thesis or dissertation? MPAL is interested in displaying student work and their creative/research process in the Library’s first floor exhibit area. Find more information here.
Instructors interested in having their students develop an exhibit as part of a class project should contact Kate Lambaria at lambari1@illinois.edu.
