Weaving the Libraries Future beyond Traditional Activities

This poster will share different ways to engage students and

faculty beyond the traditional activities of instruction and

collections. It will explain how one urban public research

university library has become the nexus for sharing culture,

language, and music by connecting students and faculty from

diverse backgrounds through karaoke, trivia, conversation, and

more. It will detail how libraries of all sizes, budgets, and

locations can celebrate the diversity of the campus community

through a variety of events online and/or in person. Learn how

to create a campus buzz about the library beyond study rooms

and laptops. Included in the poster session will be the tools

needed to plan, promote, execute, and evaluate different library

events.
