Requesting Copies of Collections

The Center does not have a public photocopier onsite. If you would like to request reproductions of our collections for your personal reference and are able to visit the Center's reading room, our staff can help you complete a request form to have our collections copied for you. If you are unable to visit the Center in person, we will be happy to try to assist you remotely. To submit a reference request, please contact the Center at csencah@uncw.edu or 910-962-7810. As long as there are no restrictions or preservation concerns associated with the materials being requested, we can usually provide users with a limited number* of photocopies or scans of material via email. 

The Center offers reproduction services free of charge. However, we are limited in how much research we are able to conduct on behalf of a remote user. Due to the high volume of inquiries we receive, please allow up to one week for a response to your request. Any copies provided will be for personal reference only and subject to copyright restrictions; permission must be obtained before any of the Center’s materials may be published or otherwise disseminated.

*limits on photocopying requests are determined on a case by case basis, but generally may not exceed more than 100 pages per user.

Permission to Publish

Anyone seeking to publish materials from the Center's collections must first obtain permission from the legal copyright holder. The Center is happy to facilitate requests for permission to publish our materials. Please email us at csencah@uncw.edu for more information.
