The University Library Exhibits
Collection contains slides of the University of Central Florida Library
Exhibits from 1970-1979. However, many of the materials contained within this
collection date back to as early as 1969. In many cases, local newspaper
articles advertising and critiquing the exhibits are included as well as
programs, pamphlets, and patron comment sheets. The library was the first
building to be built on the campus, thus making the library's entryway primary
space for all university departments to showcase various presentations or
projects where they otherwise could not. This collection highlights the many
varied campus exhibits, while showing how the library functioned as a multi-use
building in the university's early years.

Processing History
Rusted paper clips were removed and replaced with plastic clips. News
clippings were photocopied onto acid-free paper. All materials were rehoused in
acid-free folders and boxes. Duplicates were removed and social security
numbers were obliterated. Post-it notes were moved to the edge of documents to
prevent destruction of information. To facilitate research, files in the
alphabetical files that belonged more appropriately in other series were
moved.
Access
This collection is available for use.

Historical Note
The University of Central Florida library was the first building to be
erected on campus in 1968 and has since been the center from which the campus
has grown. All social and academic acclivities in the first years of the
university were conducted within the university library. Classroom space was
provided in the library as well as holding the offices of the university's
first president, Dr.
Charles N. Millican, and his staff. Even with the
quick growth of the campus, the university library has remained a hub for
cultural and intellectual activity, offering students and faculty an open forum
for discussion and reflection.
Collection Scope and Content
This collection is made of one complete series with two separate
sub-series. The first sub-series lists the primary library exhibits that were
displayed in the library between the years 1969-1979. The second sub-series
lists exhibits created by senior year art students who displayed their work at
the library between the years 1972 and 1975. For ease in research, the
collection is arranged first chronologically and then alphabetically.
Contents List
Series 1: Library Exhibits,
1969-1979.
2 Boxes.
The University Library Exhibits were a focal point of cultural
education for both the UCF campus and the greater Orlando community. Helmed
under the supervision of resident artist and UCF Librarian Dorothy Kannon, the
UCF Library housed exhibits ranging from the expensive to homemade. Exhibits
were created by professional artists, artistic groups, faculty, and students
who used the space as a forum for their work. This series is divided into two
separate sub-series to delineate between the primary exhibits featured through
the normal school year and the student exhibits featuring the work of senior
level art students who would be graduating. To aid the researcher in finding
materials, the collection has been organized chronologically and then
alphabetically in each sub-series.
