Comments
This project was originally intended to be a permanent physical wall-exhibit throughout the various floors of Memorial Library. The selection and descriptions were created prior to the Pandemic by a team of librarians. This original plan to implement the physical exhibit was put on pause during COVID-19. In 2021, Jeremy Pekarek, repurposed the curated photographs and descriptions, into a virtual platform.
Exhibit co-creators include Jeremy Pekarek (archivist & instructional services librarian, SUNY Cortland), Janet Ochs (coordinator of the computer applications program, SUNY Cortland), Jennifer Moore (instructional services librarian, SUNY Cortland), and Hilary Wong (instructional services librarian, SUNY Cortland).
