From online collections of unique and rare research materials, to the mass digitization of enormous library and manuscript collections, to the development and integration of specialized technologies into the work of the humanities and social sciences. Digital technologies have the power to enhance, even transform, scholarship, teaching, and learning.
The Carolina Digital Library and Archives (CDLA) brings these activities to Carolina as a new partner with scholars, researchers, students, and departments.
Learn about the CDLA at a free open house on Wednesday, February 13. All events take place in the CDLA offices on the ground floor of Wilson Library.
