Introduction edit

Our project aims to increase the number, and quality, of all works relating to the State of North Carolina, and Province it was before becoming a state.

  • Good sources for this are nc.gov, ncleg.gov, nccourts.gov, oah.nc.goc, digital.ncdpr.gov, and digitalnc.org.
  • Always remember to use source files and index pages for works, not just typing up a new work without providing a proper source, PDF and DjVu files are both accepted.
  • In any text where the long s {{ls}} or other old style orthographies are used in a text, it will be used instead of changing it into a regular s.
  • Edits and revisions to completed texts are always welcome.
  • Sources on various historic newspapers not already in the links above, would be greatly appreciated.
