In addition to materials in display cases, the exhibit had a series of wall hangings related to the displays.

Two wall hangings highlight the University of Mississippi's Original Library project, represented in two display cases. The image above uses the cover of the University's original library "catalogue": a handwritten ledger that inventoried the library's holdings. This image below uses a portion of a photograph taken in the University's original library circa 1839, located in Ventress Hall.
