University Archives
The Special Collections Research Center has been engaged in an initiative to document the built environment of North Carolina for a number of years. As a result, the collections are rich in twentieth century designs, and include drawings of commercial and residential buildings, as well as those of NC State campus buildings.
The Rare Book Collection contains classic works in the history of architecture. Please consult the library’s online catalog for information regarding specific titles.

Additional Resources
In 1994, David C. Jackson produced a survey of the architectural records held in repositories, government agencies, architectural firms, and private collections throughout North Carolina. The aim of his survey,
sponsored jointly by The Gallery of Art & Design, North Carolina State University and the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office, Raleigh, was to begin to unite the scattered architectural collections across the state and to initiate the process for developing a statewide collection strategy and appraisal program for North Carolina architectural records. It is not regularly updated, but remains a useful tool for architectural researchers.
