Including Exhibits

Including Exhibits on your Public Access site can provide a different way to access your collections. By creating exhibits of particular records, online visitors can virtually access your curated exhibits without having to perform searches. Accessible from the Exhibits navigation button,  Exhibit records will display any fields from the Exhibits database you have selected to share online.  There will also be a list of the catalog records on that exhibit if they are selected for your public site.


Select Exhibit Records

Including Exhibit records on your Public Access site is optional, and you may choose to include all or certain Exhibits on your public site. Similar to the catalog records, each Exhibit record has a Public Access check box that can be selected or deselected. By default, when you select an Exhibit record to be included in Public Access, all images associated with that record are also selected to display on the public site. It is possible to deselect individual images on the Image Management screen.
