Title: Frederick A. Cook: A Digital Exhibition

URL: https://library.osu.edu/projects/frederick-cook/

Description: This website contains the exhibit Frederick A. Cook: A Digital Exhibition, which highlighted the rich documentation, contained within the Frederick A. Cook Society Collection. A prolific photographer and writer, featured materials include images from Dr. Cook’s many polar expeditions, his extensive travels during the period of 1915-1916, as well as his writings. Also included are newspaper clippings and other documentation of his life. Dr. Cook’s unpublished autobiographical manuscript1 provides much of the context for this exhibition. Rather than a straight chronology of Cook’s life, the autobiography is interwoven with Cook’s philosophical thoughts on many subjects, including the workings of the human mind, what motivates people, spirituality, and other deeply complex ideas. NOTE: This archived site contains external links beyond the scope of this crawl. In addition, when you click on the “Documents” navigation tab and arrive at the “Documents” page, the rest of the navigational links do not work; you must use your brower’s “back-button” to get back to a webpage with active navigation.

Title: 50th Anniversary of the Friendship 7 flight - A Digital Exhibition

URL: https://library.osu.edu/projects/friendship-7/

Description: On February 20, 1962, John Glenn became the first American astronaut to orbit Earth. During a mission lasting just under five hours, his Friendship 7 spacecraft orbited three times and splashed down without incident near the Bahama Islands. To commemorate the 50th anniversary of John Glenn's achievement the Ohio State University Libraries hosted an exhibit about the historic spaceflight using manuscripts, photographs and artifacts from the John Glenn Archives. Displayed in the Thompson Library, the exhibit ran from February 1 to April 30, 2012. This online exhibit uses the same materials from the John Glenn Archives to replicate as closely as possible the original cases in the physical exhibit. This exhibit was migrated to a new platform in 2017.
