Best of both worlds
Our exhibitions, much like our collections, are accessible physically and virtually. A print catalogue and a virtual gallery are available.
Monash University Library presents an interesting program of exhibitions showcasing the breadth and quality of its collections. Fragile and valuable materials from the Rare Books Collection are most often featured. Through the accompanying virtual exhibitions you can view highlights of the items online, even those from past exhibitions.
The exhibitions are held at Level 1, ISB wing, Sir Louis Matheson Library on the Clayton campus.
