May 14, 2014 Meeting of University Library Exhibitions Committee

Agenda not yet available.

Pat Miller, Cher Schneider, Jody Waitzman (Chair)

1. Jody: web calendar; budget mgmt. and ordering 

• Current Mueller fund balance is $6887.19 (more than we thought!)
• Printing costs for Marshall Gallery exhibit, May 2014: $128.80
• Jody will send out a LibNews message to recruit exhibitors; will wait until Cher has heard back from July & September exhibitors
  about extending their exhibits to cover August (see below). If neither of them can extend, will include August in recruitment email.

 

 2. Cher: contact with exhibitors for install/deinstall; preparation of materials for exhibit  

• Cher will ask the September NS Corridor exhibitors (Laila Hussein and Antonio Sotomayor) if they would be willing to put their exhibit up for August and September
• If they say no, Cher will ask RBML if they would leave their July exhibit up for August too
• Our May 2014 exhibitor for the Marshall Gallery fell through; Miriam put up a Preservation-themed exhibit in the Marshall in its place
• Cher suggested doing a survey about moving the cases. If they would like the 2nd floor and if 3 cases is more preferable than 6? Etc…

3. Kaylan

• Kaylan has graduated and will no longer be serving on the committee

4. Pat: Graduate student competition

• No updates here

 

5. Lucy: Publicity and recruitment of exhibitors

• Checked if ACES wanted to do a “welcome” exhibit in August, they said no
• Mentioned at April meeting that it’d be useful to get an example/template of emails we send to LibNews ; there is now a sample letter in the Exhibits folder on the G drive

6. Miriam: website; facilities
