The Curriculum Materials Center (CMC) is a specialized collection of teaching materials for Pre-school through Grade 12. The Center is located on the second floor of Randall Library.

UNCW or Randall Library identification cards must be presented each time materials are checked out. Current members of the UNCW Alumni Association or Friends of UNCW may obtain a Randall Library ID card at no charge. Adult North Carolina residents (over 18 and out of high school) may purchase a Randall Library ID card for $15.00 per year. These cards are issued at the Circulation Desk on the first floor of the Library. Free cards are issued for use of CMC materials only for public school teachers in the following counties: Bladen, Brunswick, Columbus, Duplin, New Hanover, Onslow, Pender, and Sampson. These cards are issued in the CMC. Borrowing privileges are not transferable.
