Wilson Library is becoming a very bloggy building! The latest addition, Field Trip South, comes from the Southern Folklife Collection up on the 4th floor. This blog will be a resource for readers to learn more about the holdings of the SFC, find out about those great SFC concerts and events, and to enjoy some of the sights and sounds of the collection. FTS joins a growing list of Wilson Library blogs. (Warning: I hope you have a few hours to spare if you plan on browsing the list below).
A View to Hugh — Needs no introduction, obviously!
North Carolina Miscellany — Blog of the North Carolina Collection, the state’s premier collection of published materials documenting the history, literature, and culture of the Tar Heel state. Includes regular posts discussing new and upcoming books on North Carolina topics, state history in the news, treasures from the stacks of the North Carolina Collection, and general “Tar Heelia.”
Read North Carolina Novels — A guide to fiction set in North Carolina, also hosted by the NCC.
Southern Sources — Features interesting staff finds, curiosities, old favorites, and other cool stuff from Wilson Library’s Southern Historical Collection.
