The goal of the library exhibition program is to provide a space for student work and campus research to be shared with the community and that our exhibition program provides an opportunity to present stories, voices, and work that otherwise may not be able to be shared.

Indigenous Womxn’s Collective

Level 1

This exhibition is a platform to highlight the work led by the Indigenous Womxn’s Collective fellows. Each fellow identified a topic or issue important to them and facilitated an event in partnership with campus and community partners.

The mission of the Indigenous Womxn’s Collective (IWC) is to empower future leaders by leveraging Indigenous womxn’s shared stories, lived experiences, and intersectionality through intergenerational exchange and collaboration. Program initiatives guide and develop leaders through service-oriented projects while creating a collective of womxn supporting womxn.

Exhibition is by the American Indian Resource Center at the University of Utah.

Al Quran Al Kareem

Special Collections Reading Room Level 4

In the month of Ramadan, the Quran was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, observed by Muslims worldwide as a month of sawm, or fasting, prayer, reflection, and community. A commemoration of the first revelation, the annual observance of Ramadan is regarded as one of the Five Pillars of Islam and lasts twenty-nine to thirty days, from one sighting of the crescent moon to the next.
This year, the Rare Books Department, in partnership with the Al Mustafa Foundation of Utah, invite you to celebrate Utah’s Muslim Community with a showing of our unique and exquisite Qurans from around the world.
