As part of the University Libraries’ Fall 2020 plan, limited staff are returning to the Wilson Special Collections Library to revamp digitization efforts and expand remote reference and instruction services. Students, faculty and researchers seeking access to special collections materials will be able to request digital reference copies beginning July 31.
Details about our suite of services and an FAQ for the Fall 2020 semester can be found on our Prepare for an Online Visit in Fall 2020 page.

Access to Special Collections Materials
Library users may request a limited number of free digital reference copies for research purposes through their user accounts. Higher-quality digital reproductions may also be requested through the same system. Note that copying services may not be available for some materials due to their condition or usage restrictions. Visit our Prepare for an Online Visit in Fall 2020 page for more information and contact wilsonlibrary@unc.edu with any questions.
