North Carolina State Archives: Online Projects

Web pages created as part of a 2001 National Endowment for the Humanities grant to arrange and create finding aids for Black Mountain College (BMC) related collections at the North Carolina State Archives. Included are an introduction to the history of the college, finding aids, a photo gallery, and links to further resources. Black Mountain College was an experimental school located in Black Mountain, North Carolina. From 1933-1956, the college strived to educate the whole person with an emphasis on the role of the arts and creative thinking. The North Carolina State Archives is the primary repository of materials relating to Black Mountain College, including the official college records and over twenty other collections of varying sizes relating to the college. Many of these collections include materials published by the college but, until now, there has been no comprehensive listing of all of the Black Mountain College publications available at the North Carolina State Archives. http://www.archives.ncdcr.gov/projects.htm
The North Carolina State Archives collects, preserves, and makes available for public use historical and evidential materials relating to North Carolina. Its holdings consist of official records of state, county, and local governmental units, and copies of federal and foreign government materials. In addition to these official records are private collections, organization records, maps, pamphlets, sound recordings, photographs, motion picture film, and a small reference library. In all, the Archives houses over 50,000 linear feet of permanently valuable materials containing millions of individual items. Materials in the Archives collections constitute by far the most valuable assembly of manuscript records and North Caroliniana in existence. The State Archives is part of the Archives and Records Section of the Office of Archives and History and the Department of Cultural Resources . http://www.archives.ncdcr.gov/
