Millikin University > Staley Library > University Archives > Online Exhibits

In the spring of 2001 the University Archives began creating displays in Staley Library of photographs and other items included in its various collections. A virtual counterpart has been created below for each of these exhibits. In addition, some "web-only" exhibits appear here as well. Select a link below to enjoy a virtual view of the history of Millikin University.

Exhibits

Below you will find the web-companion pages to many of our exhibits that have appeared in Staley Library over the past few years. A few of these were created exclusively as web exhibits and did not have a physical version within the library.
