Support Our Programs

Programs at the Penn Libraries — including lecture series, symposia, and public events — further our ongoing commitment to meaningful engagement with individuals, institutions, and communities. By bringing distinguished scholars to campus to engage with our distinctive collections, these programs and foster conversation, scholarship, and discovery.
