Foster Auditorium was designed foremost as a library instruction facility for large classes, and for other Library needs that exceed the space in Library conference and seminar rooms or the Mann Assembly Room.
Requests by academic events that are not co-sponsored by the Libraries, as well as those from non-academic university units, such as student organizations and non-university organizations, should be referred to the Penn Stater, Nittany Lion Inn, or the HUB as more appropriate sites.
