Little Library. The collections document the evolution of black educational institutions in the 19th and 20th centuries and the desegregation of higher education in the 1960s and 1970s.
In 2009 Elizabeth City State University was advised by NEH funded preservation consultants to purchase powder-coated, stainless steel shelving for its archival storage space in G.R. Little Library (Room 200). The purpose of this grant application is to request assistance in implementing this recommendation which ECSU received during the course of a previous, 2008-2009 NEH Preservation Assistance/Assessment grant. This grant, if awarded, will provide funding for the purchase and installation of power-coated stainless steel shelving for Room 200 G. R. Little Library. |
