Miun Research Exhibition

Experience research in a new way

Mid Sweden University Library offers opportunities to take part in Mid Sweden University's research through an experience-oriented exhibition activity under the heading Miun Research Exhibition. Here, the library wants to take communication about research to a whole new level.

The library's exhibition activities also offer rooms for travelling exhibitions and students the opportunity to exhibit their projects and work. All exhibitions are open to the public, Mid Sweden University's students and staff.

Utställningsprojektet Miun Research Exhibition

Between 2020 and 2023, a project was underway at Mid Sweden University Library with the aim of developing appropriate and long-term sustainable methods and working methods for producing research-communicating exhibitions and programs in the University Library's physical and digital spaces. The idea was that current research from different subject fields would be dressed in a more experiential form by portraying selected parts of it.

During the project period, two related exhibitions were produced with the overarching theme of forests and sustainable development. One for the physical space and one web-based exhibition.
