Fun art show... It might be interesting to turn the library into breeding grounds for future exhibits. What I mean is, library patrons could generate site-specific artpieces to express a quality of the space, a reflection of its resources, or a reaction to its users (and their research). The art might solicit increased traffic toward new informational tools of the ASL. Examples below include collaborative faculty/student design exhibitions, books as a sculptural medium, and local/campus design issues.
