Access to materials

Collection is open for research; access requires at least 48 hours advance notice. Because of the nature of certain archival formats, including digital and audio-visual materials, access will require additional advanced notice. Unless noted, digital media are not available online. Copies of unrestricted digital files will be provided for use in the SCRC Reading Room upon request. Access will be provided to use copies of unrestricted digital files rather than carrier media, such as CDs, DVDs, and floppy disks. Some or all electronic files may be unavailable or restricted due to privacy reasons, agreement with the donor, software is not available to interact with files, or because files cannot be retrieved from original media.

Contained here is a black-and-white 8 x 10 inch photograph of the parking lot south of Tucker and Owen Residence Halls (dormitories) on the North Carolina State College (now University) campus. The photographer is unknown. The depicted parking lot later became Cates Ave. The photo shows the view to the west, and in the distance are some of the Vetville married housing unit.
