South Gallery Series Concludes with 'Eclipse'
The final show in the University Libraries South Gallery Series is “Eclipse.” An exhibit concentrating on astronomy, specifically looking at the phenomenon of eclipses, with photography sourced from the NASA Image and Video Library.
The photos on display were taken from the Solar Dynamics Observatory spacecraft, Goddard Space Flight Center, the International Space Station, a European Space Agency satellite, and various locations across the United States. The photos sourced for this exhibit are from the 2015, 2017 and 2021 solar eclipses.
The University Libraries South Gallery Series is six shows from local Toledo artists and University of Toledo faculty, staff, and students will rotate through the space from August through April.
Stay tuned for an announcement about next year’s expanded University Libraries Gallery Series in the near future.

National Library Week 2024
The theme for National Library Week 2024, “Ready, Set, Library!,” promotes the idea that in our always-online world, libraries give us a green light to something truly special: a place to connect with others, learn new skills, and focus on what matters most.
Sticking with the racing theme, the University Libraries is partnering with the University of Toledo Formula SAE Racing team for a unique display in the atrium of the Carlson Library.
Additionally the University Libraries will be debuting the newest editions to our annual READ posters, featuring UToledo students, staff, and faculty.
The Heart of Any University:
50 Years of the William S. Carlson Library
The exhibition is divided into five chapters:
- An overview of the history of the University of Toledo Libraries;
- A look at the tenth university president, William S. Carlson, for whom the library was named;
- The path to development of what was the largest and most expensive building on main campus at the time;
- Commemoration of the men and women who have stepped in to lead the library since its inception in 1917; and
- An exploration of the work of the Friends of the Library group, which was to benefit
the library in any manner possible.
In addition, several cases will display selections of rare books, many of which were acquired through the help of the Friends.
We are proud to be an
