Every result links to the institution that describes, holds, or provides the item. Some materials can be viewed online; others may be available from a library, through interlibrary loan, or by contacting the holding archive.

  • ✓ At OCPL: Opens the item in the OCPL catalog. Check the catalog for current availability.
  • Library badge: Opens the item’s record in the named library’s catalog.
  • ◆ On-site use: When the diamond follows a library name, at least one copy is held in special collections or otherwise limited to use inside that library.
  • View at the source repository: Opens a digitized primary source at DigitalNC, the North Carolina Digital Collections, or a university digital collection.
  • Library of Congress: Opens the record in the national catalog; LC copies are consulted on site, so look for the same title at a library nearer you.
  • UNC finding aids: Opens the collection guide at Wilson Library; the papers are consulted in the reading room.
  • State Archives of NC: Opens the collection’s finding aid, or the Archives’ catalog listing for a series; the materials are consulted in the Raleigh search room.
  • DOI link: Opens a research article or dataset at its publisher or repository; some articles need a subscription or a library login.

  • Read online: Opens a full-view digital copy at HathiTrust or the Internet Archive.

    About Orange County Indexed

    Orange County Indexed brings together records about Orange County from twelve library systems and the State Archives of North Carolina, the Digital Public Library of America, DataCite, and Crossref. This page searches the full index, including books, maps, archival collections, government documents, campus materials, digitized primary sources, and published research about the county.

    Filters and browse terms are derived from source catalog headings, which remain available in the Complete Subject Index. Every result links to its source record. Use Advanced options to narrow the results, browse books held by OCPL, or download the index as a spreadsheet.

    Automated grouping makes broad discovery possible but may not resolve every ambiguity. Corrections and additions are welcome through the contact form.
