We have art from the College’s permanent art collection on display throughout our library.  We also have a rotating exhibit of works from the permanent collection in our lobby area.  The rotating exhibit changes about once a year and features pieces in the College art collection that may not have been displayed before, or works that have not been displayed together as an exhibit. 

All of this is managed by our Art Committee: staff members in multiple areas who have agreed to serve on the committee to oversee the collection and make decisions about accessioning new works.

 

I’m happy to answer questions if you would like more information.

 

All the best,

Robin Rank

 

 

 

Dear colleagues,

 

Suddenly I am the Art Coordinator for the main library here at Clemson.

As I begin to pull that program and a team together, I would very much appreciate hearing from those of you who have art displayed in your main libraries: policy or procedure documents, most especially.

What are the art sources you tap? Who vets artworks? What security/insurance provisions did your organization think through (and reject J).

 

Many thanks,

Kathy
