Farms, Fields, and Florida: Lois Lenski Illustrating the South
The members of Dr. Teri Abstein's spring 2013 Museum Object class have been working with Florida State University Special Collections to design the exhibit entitled Farms, Fields, and Florida: Lois Lenski Illustrating the South. Through materials that have not been on display since Lenski presented them herself, the exhibition highlights the children's author's connection with the rural south, focusing on the state of Florida.

Integration at The Florida State University
In honor of the 50th Anniversary of Integration at FSU, the Florida State University Libraries have combed Special Collections and Archives to bring you headlines, stories, and images from the era. Within the online exhibit, you'll find photographs, newspaper clippings, yearbook selections and other documents which tell the story of Integration at FSU and the broader Civil Rights movement in Tallahassee. Our goal is to present original material from the time as a tool for research, exploration, and discussion.

Book of Kings, King of Books: Early Printed Bibles from the Carothers Collection
This exhibit is a selection of 27 treasures from the collection of early printed Bibles bequeathed to the library in 1982 by Milton Stover Carothers, Director of FSU’s Presbyterian Center, in memory of his parents Julia Stover and Milton Washington Carothers.
Book of Kings, King of Books offers a new example of the multi-faceted collaborative effort between the Strozier Library and the History of Text Technologies (HoTT) program as its direct origin is the graduate seminar “The Bible as a Book (13th-18th c.)” that François Dupuigrenet Desroussilles, professor in the Religion Department and HoTT faculty, has been teaching every year in Special Collections since 2009.
