As part of the Citizen Science project under the LibOCS initiative, the University of Tartu Library, in collaboration with partner libraries, has developed an open-access course for librarians. This course introduces citizen science and the role of libraries in contributing to its development.

On the third floor of the library, you can view the bookbinding exhibition "Artur Alliksaar - the King of Bohemians" by the Estonian Leatherwork Artists' Union until October 21st. The exhibition is inspired by the collection "Koirohukorjaja," compiled from Artur Alliksaar's poetry by Maarja Undusk and Külli Grünbach-Sein. Bookbinders were given these poems to create covers for them. This resulted in an exhibition of 34 leather artists' works, which is a tribute to the Bohemian King Artur Alliksaar on his 100th birthday.

UT library invites both first-year students and other new readers to get acquainted with the library. Over the next two weeks, the service department's employees are organizing tours to introduce the building and various services.

In front of the open stacks and on the exhibition area of the 2nd floor, photographer and video operator Jaak Kadarik will open his sales-exhibition "Viewpoint" on Friday, August 11th, at 2 p.m. The exhibition will showcase a variety of Kadarik's works, including analog photography, digital photo editing, experimental photography (deviations from classical chemical processing of analog photography, photograms, brush development, painting on photos), as well as gouache, oil, and acrylic paintings. Art pieces will be available for purchase.

On the third floor of the library, during the summer months, you can view the traditional Konrad Mägi Atelier artists' spring exhibition. According to Maire Aarsalu, one of the leaders of the Konrad Mägi Atelier and an artist, the main objective is to maintain the continuity with the historical Pallas Art School, where color is the primary means of expression for the painter. "As Heldur Viires used to say, painting is simple - it's about the right color in the right place," she added.
