The annual Doors Open Minneapolis event offers libraries an excellent opportunity to raise their profile in the eyes of the public. Minitex had a very positive experience participating in 2024, as we featured the Minnesota Library Access Center (MLAC). We are unable to participate this year due to large-scale collection management work in MLAC that would conflict with the event.
Minitex and the University of Minnesota Libraries are partnering to participate in Doors Open Minneapolis on Saturday and Sunday, May 18-19. From 10:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. each day, we'll invite the public into the Minnesota Library Access Center (MLAC) and the Maxine Houghton Wallin Special Collections Research Center.
On May 18-19, Doors Open Minneapolis will offer participants a free behind-the-scenes look into fascinating spaces across Minneapolis that are normally closed to the public. Volunteers get a free t-shirt and are invited to a post-event appreciation party that includes food and beverage.
