University Libraries invites you to experience AIDS, Posters & Stories of Public Health: A People’s History of a Pandemic, a traveling exhibition from the National Library of Medicine.
On view across two campus locations:

June 1–20: Carlson Library North Gallery

This powerful exhibit traces the history of HIV/AIDS through public health posters created by artists, activists, and communities. Presented during Pride Month, it offers an important opportunity to reflect on the ongoing impact of HIV/AIDS—particularly within LGBTQIA+ communities.
In addition to the traveling exhibit, explore materials from the UToledo community, including historical articles, letters, images, books, and film.
💬 Free and open to the public — all are welcome to attend and learn.
The National Library of Medicine produced this exhibition and companion website. For more information about the traveling exhibition, visit the National Library of Medicine’s exhibit page at:
