Visiting Scholar Status for Faculty Members

Visiting scholars receive an i.d. card that grants borrowing privileges at the UNC-Chapel Hill libraries and also at the libraries of Duke, North Carolina State, and North Carolina Central universities. Visiting scholars have off-campus and in-library access to the databases, journals, and other electronic materials to which the library subscribes.
Visiting scholar applications must be obtained and completed in person.
