Lincoln-Douglas Exhibit - Update

Several people have asked for more details on the space needed for the Lincoln-Douglas exhibit.  We put the exhibit together at LTLS headquarters.  The content of the exhibit is 20 feet long, however it is in a U-shape, so you don't need a full 20 feet of linear space.  The "footprint" of the exhibit is 14.5 feet wide x 7.5 feet deep. In addition, you should have several feet of free space at the opening of the "U" for access.

The instructions that come with the exhibit are very helpful.  You will need at least 2 people and should allow about an hour for assembly.

For more details on how to request the exhibit for your library, see the June 11 post.
