Get Involved: NLM Traveling Exhibitions

NLM Traveling Exhibitions

Libraries and cultural institutions present inspiring stories about history, society, and medicine to their communities through NLM Traveling Exhibitions. Curated from NLM collections, these exhibitions explore current themes in public health and connect visitors to trusted NLM health information resources such as MedlinePlus and PubMed.

NLM Traveling Exhibitions bring institutions publicity through programming, encourage community partnerships, and foster health literacy in your community. Please visit each traveling exhibition web page listed below and look for examples of how to connect audiences to NLM’s trusted health resources under “Programming with NLM Health Information Resources.”

Important Update: Suspension of the Traveling Exhibition Service

Effective immediately, the Traveling Exhibition Service is paused until further notice. As a result, the booking process is on hold, and there will be no Calls for Requests or opportunities to reserve exhibitions for the foreseeable future.

Exhibitions currently on tour will continue as planned, and we remain committed to supporting host venues during this transition.

We recognize the important role this service has played in communities and institutions over the years. We sincerely thank NNLM member organizations and host venues for your ongoing support and collaboration. Your enthusiasm has been essential to the program’s success, and we are grateful.

We will share updates as they become available.
