Special Collections has a new website! University Archives includes records, photographs, and publications documenting the history of the University of North Carolina at Asheville. Our archivists assist the UNCA community with questions about records retention as outlined in the UNC System’s Records Retention and Disposition Schedule. We welcome students, faculty, staff, community members, and researchers to use Special Collections and University Archives. We’re located on the third floor of D.H. Ramsey Library on the UNC Asheville campus. Our reading room hours are posted below, and we are also available by appointment. As part of our mission to serve the UNC Asheville community, Special Collections also provides instruction, reference services, and internship opportunities to support undergraduate curricula and individual student research. Please contact us at speccoll@unca.edu for research assistance. We are pleased to announce the donation of the Bill and Alice Hart Collection, a comprehensive collection of over 1200 monographs and over 25 linear feet of books and other materials documenting Western North Carolina history and culture. Read about the collection on the UNC Ashevile News Site and in the Appalachian Curator. Are you having trouble citing primary sources?
