Abstract: In this paper we discuss the process of virtual exposition modeling for the folklore domain. Two folklore information systems are chosen as a source of the content – the Bulgarian folklore digital libraries and the Bulgarian folklore artery. They include specimens of different folklore narrative types (songs, rituals, faith, knowledge, proverbs, magic, etc.) and their audio-visual documentation. The purpose of the virtual expositions modeling is combining attractive, but difficult-to-collect objects that present completely the socium occupation, traditions and life in concrete (but not only) village (folklore region, area, etc.). It is important to present objects with different origin, for example juxtaposing available fund materials for the beginning of 20th century for one rite and this rite 100 year after. This approach will join the past with the present of the corresponding folklore objects and will present the Bulgarian folklore culture as vital and dynamically developing one.
