Committed to creating engagement opportunities for students, scholars and the UCF community alike, the Regional Initiative for Collecting History, Experiences and Stories (RICHES™) project marked its 10th year of preserving the past using innovative digital tools.
RICHES™ is an interdisciplinary project that partners with multiple academic units at the University of Central Florida, six other Florida universities, and commercial and nonprofit sectors of the community. The project serves as a model for documenting regional history, especially “hidden” history and culture, through an interactive database that draws from multiple repositories and personal collections,
In celebration of the project’s tenth anniversary, look forward to explore the past by viewing the 2020-2021 RICHES in Review publication.
