The study examines the principle of creating virtual exhibitions as a means of integration into the Common Digital Space of Scientific Knowledge (CDSSK), information systems in the field of science and culture, with the aim of promoting science, ensuring access to information in various scientific fields, and drawing attention to current issues and achievements in the scientific sphere. The main methods of creating virtual exhibitions are formulated, including content selection and segmentation into main sections. In addition, a classification of virtual exhibitions into autonomous, remote, and combined is proposed. Special attention is paid to the methodology of creating virtual exhibition at the Moscow Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Using the example of an interdepartmental combined virtual exhibition, a detailed description of the "Mrs. Penicillin" exhibition dedicated to the creator of penicillin, Z.V. Ermolyeva, is provided.
