This tutorial is directed towards researchers who need assistance in understanding and using the Manuscripts and Archives collections at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, but the concepts and topics presented will be useful at other institutions as well.

This tutorial was made possible through the generous support of the Randleigh Foundation Trust of Chapel Hill.

The tutorial was written and developed by Laura Clark Brown, Manuscripts Department and Jill S. Stover, School of Information and Library Science.

We'd like to thank the University Library's Web Editorial Committee, the Web Team and Diane Strauss, Associate University Librarian for Public Services, for their time in reviewing the tutorial and providing technical assistance.
