The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Photographic Laboratory served the University community for almost half a century, from 1946 to 1990. The Laboratory processed (developed) film for University photographers and served as the image reproduction center for University offices, schools, departments, staff, and student activities. Thousands of the images in this collection appeared in a variety of University-related publications (including the Yackety Yack and The Daily Tarheel) in addition to being used in official materials created to provide information about different departments, schools, and departments on campus. The Photographic Laboratory ceased operations in 1990. The majority of the collection consists of black-and-white photographic negatives and mounted "reference" photographic prints created by the Photographic Laboratory between 1946 and 1990. Subject matter includes faculty, staff, students, facilities, and activities at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
