Which of the following clarifies as a "virtual" exhibit?
 
A.  A digital representation, stored and transmitted via computer, of images
and text from an exhibition that is currently on display/ was once on
display at a museum.
 
B.  A digital representation, stored, transmitted and arranged via computer
of selected images from a museum's collection arranged in a thematic, coherent
manner that was never actually on display at that museum.
 
C.  A digital representation... of an exhibit composed of images from many
different museums' collections that was never actually on display at any one
of these museums.
 
Are all of these "virtual" exhibits?  None of them?  What else could qualify
as a virtual exhibit, or, further, a virtual museum?
 
Just wondering,
 
Jessica Zirkel
