Notes
  • The NCSU Libraries Special Collections Research Center is laying the groundwork for "Living off the Land," an online research site intended to bring together historical tobacco and crop science-related resources available in this state. The goal of this project is to digitize primary source research materials on tobacco and crop science and to synthesize them into an educational resource emphasizing the rise of the agricultural economy in North Carolina. Among the topics represented in the collection, which will focus on the period from 1850-1950, will be education, history, economics, culture, entomology, cultivation, and the literature of tobacco. The collection will have sufficient breadth to be of interest to K-12 students, the advanced researcher, and the general public. Original documents relating to the establishment of NC State University will be included, beginning with records drawn from the state's Agricultural Experiment Station. Research reports on various crops, correspondence, and photographs of agricultural activity affiliated with the university will be digitized and featured in the site.
