Description: "The Animal Kingdom: Six Centuries of Zoological Illustration" is based on the superb collection of books in Special Collections containing scientific and artistic images of animals dating from the sixteenth to the twenty-first centuries. The exhibition includes images of animals from early printed herbals and travel books of the sixteenth century. These artists rarely work from actual specimens but from their imaginations or from the descriptions of others. The results were often fantastic creatures such as unicorns and mermaids. Books in the exhibit from this period include Petri Andreæ Matthioli senensis medici: commentarii in sex libros Pedacii Dioscoridis and Ortus sanitatis. This exhibition was on display in the Special Collection Gallery from February 13-June 12, 2007.

Description: The exhibition Personal Visions: Artists Books at the Millennium demonstrates that both traditional and avant-garde book arts remain dynamic. Both give voice to artistic creativity and both challenge the reader to become involved in the reading experience. By focusing on works published since 1995, the exhibition allows for clear comparisons among current works. Personal Visions offers its audience a surprising, often challenging look at the creative interplay of the artist and the book. This exhibition was on view in the Special Collections Gallery from January 15-June 9, 2002.

The noted Brandywine illustrators, N. C. Wyeth and Howard Pyle, have contributed to the Robin Hood corpus through the written word and celebrated illustrations. Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., Errol Flynn, Mel Brooks, and Kevin Costner have all lent their dramatic talents to developing the heroic and comic possibilities of the "prince of thieves." A sampling of renowned scholars of the Robin Hood legend and of earlier literature also appears in the exhibit.

Description: "Four Decades of Library Support," which includes some of the rarest and most important books in the Library's collection, focuses on books acquired with the financial support of the University of Delaware Library Associates. The work of the University of Delaware Library Associates, an independent library support organization, has had a profound impact on the growth of all areas of the University of Delaware Library over the past four decades, but perhaps the organization's most enduring contribution has been the support it has provided for the University of Delaware Library's Special Collections Department. From the very outset, the Library Associates identified the development of the Library's research collections as a top priority. In particular, the Library Associates sought to enrich the Library's research holdings in some of the fundamental disciplines of the humanities, notably English and American literature, music, art, history, languages and literature, and economics. This exhibition was on display in the Special Collections Gallery from September 9-December 16, 1998.
