The CENL Books and Audiences Network Group invites you to the seminar “New Directions in Library Exhibitions” on May 8–9, 2025, at the National Library of Latvia, Riga. The call for papers is now open—join curators and experts to explore innovative approaches to book exhibitions!
Join the webinar “Technology and Innovation in Library Exhibitions – Benefit or Burden?” on 10 December 2024 at 14.00 CET, hosted by BANG! (Books and Audiences Network Group). The session will explore how digital technologies are being integrated into library exhibitions, balancing technology with physical collections, addressing challenges, and meeting visitor needs.
We encourage national libraries to join the network and contribute to the exchange of practices and approaches, helping to create a shared perspective on modern library exhibitions and the challenges faced by libraries today.
BANG! – the CENL Books and Audiences Network Group – has organised its fifth webinar for researchers, collection keepers, curators, designers, educators, and other professionals whose daily work is related to exhibitions and public engagement with documentary heritage, mainly various types of books.
The Books and Audiences Network Group is organising their annual webinar December 11th 2023. This year our webinar topic’s ‘Libraries: Unlocking Non-Visitor Potential’. We like to discuss about the people we don’t reach (yet) in our setting as book exhibitions. Who are they are and how we possibly can reach them? What approaches allow to broaden groups of visitors? Do you have any experience with this topic? A case study that turned out good or even bad? We like to hear more about it! Please send us your proposal and hopefully we’ll meet during our next webinar.
