(This is another in an occasional series of introductory guides to UBC Archives’ collections and services)
Since the UBC Archives established its first Web presence in 1995, one of our on-going initiatives has been to highlight unique collections within our holdings, or to commemorate major events in the University’s history, through digital exhibitions or “virtual displays”.
These virtual displays use digital reproductions of photographic and other visual materials from the holdings of the University Archives to tell stories from UBC’s past:
- Remembering the Great Trek
- A Brief History of Theatre at UBC
- “Woven into the stuff of other men’s lives” – The UBC Faculty Book of Remembrance
- Building a Provincial University
- Royal Visits to the UBC Campus
- Harold King and “Hail U.B.C.”
- University Librarians and Annual Reports
- UBC Presidents and Annual Reports
- Remembering War Memorial Gymnasium on Remembrance Day
- UBC Campus Sculptures
- Leon and Thea Koerner University Centre – A Look Back
- Building the Main Library
- The Evolving Campus 1914-1973
