Mary Lindsay Thornton became the North Carolina Collection's first curator in 1917.
The North Carolina Collection is the largest collection of traditional library materials documenting a single state.[1] It is part of the Louis Round Wilson Special Collections Library at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The origins of the collection began in 1844 with the creation of the North Carolina Historical Society. The collection formally came into existence after a donation from John Sprunt Hill in 1930 totaling $25,000.[2] The collection includes The Thomas Wolfe Collection and The Sir Walter Raleigh Collection.
