Library Exhibitions Review is the newest initiative by the ARLIS/NA Exhibitions Special Interest Group. 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 is launching the Library Exhibitions Review (LER) to promote these best practices and enhance the visibility of library exhibitions. The first issue will be published in Spring 2023.

What We Are Looking For
We consider suggestions of exhibitions in both physical or virtual format, and open to the public. There is no restriction of types of libraries and archives. The scope of 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.

For priority consideration for the inaugural issue, submit your suggestion that includes the following by September 30, 2022 to [log in to unmask]. Suggestions will be collected on a rolling basis afterward.

• Full title of the exhibition
• Exhibition location (online or physical location)
• A brief description about the exhibition
• URL (if applicable)
