The North Carolina Collection is a special collection of the University Library; its purpose is to acquire and preserve all published materials dealing with North Carolina. Louis Round Wilson began developing the collection shortly after he became University Librarian in 1901, and in 1917 he hired Mary L. Thornton to be its first curator. The history of the North Carolina Collection as a distinct unit of the library dates from that time. Chiefly correspondence regarding reference questions, acquisition of materials, and administrative matters. Curators whose correspondence appears include Mary Lindsay Thornton and William S. Powell.
