  • UCF Libraries Virtual Exhibits: International Exposure

    Examples of Virtual Exhibits

    In addition to our on campus exhibits, our Special Collections and University Archives department also offers a variety of Virtual Exhibits that can be easily accessed via the internet.  This allows all of our friends around the world the opportunity to enjoy what we have to offer in the University of Central Florida Libraries.  These Virtual Exhibits cover topics such as adoption of children in the state of Florida during the twentieth century, a Floridian's nature art gallery, and a wonderful collection of West Indies artwork.

    A Brief History of the Children's Home Society of Florida

    The collection was processed in late 2006 by UCF graduate student April Anderson as part of her thesis project to complete her degree requirements for a Master of Art in Public History.

    Joy Postle, Florida Nature Artist

    The Joy Postle Virtual Exhibit was made possible through a gift by donor Denise Hall.  Joy Postle was an artist best known for her murals and paintings of Florida wildlife, especially birds. The gallery contains examples of her work in a variety of media.

    The Caribbean: Legacy of the Spirit

    The Caribbean: Legacy of the Spirit brings the Bryant West Indies Collection into the digital age. This virtual exhibit showcases the rich resources the collection holds for the study of the region.

    For more information concerning our Virtual Exhibits, please contact our Special Collections and University Archives department at 407-823-2576.
