Special Collections exhibits

About us

The goals of the exhibits program are to

• enhance the visibility and accessibility of Special Collections and University Archives materials by providing viewers with a scholarly, visually dynamic, and interpretive context in which to consider objects on display.
• inform the university community of recent acquisitions and reveal resources for teaching and research in Special Collections and the Libraries as a whole.
• encourage working collaborations between the libraries and academic departments, faculty, students, and the broader Stanford community.
• promote collection development through publicity and outreach.
