Display Policy for Jackson Library

Scheduling

Only officially recognized student groups, UNCG departments, and organizations affiliated with UNCG may use the display cases in Jackson Library. Faculty and staff members, departments, groups, and organizations are welcome to request to have displays that are class, research, campus life, or curriculum related. Please note that all requests must be approved by Jackson Library’s Display Committee

Reservations are accepted on a first-come, first-serve basis. They can be made up to six months in advance. Displays are to be put up on the morning of the first day and must be completely removed by noon on the final day. If items are not installed by the second day, the Display Committee reserves the right to give the space to someone else. If items are not removed within that timeframe, the Display Committee reserves the right to dispose of them.

Spaces Available

Your display will be assigned to one of the following locations based on availability. You can note your first three choices in order of preference on the request form. The timeframe listed with the case (i.e. four to six weeks) indicates how long the display may remain in the case.

  • Entrance Hall case (9' wide x 4'6" high x 1'6" deep): four to six weeks
  • Lobby cases (4' wide x 3'6" high x 1' deep): two to four weeks

Display Content

Jackson Library is not responsible for any items placed in the cases. All cases remain locked for the duration of the display. Please note that items selected for the Portico cases should be able to withstand condensation and sunlight.

The Display Committee offers the following assistance for displays:

  • Keys and access to the display cases and the library supply room
  • Limited design guidance
