African Studies Collections of the UNC-Libraries
This site compiles links to resources such as electronic newspapers of Sub-Saharan Africa and electronic indexes and databases. Campus library collections about Africa are among the top twenty universities in the country. Library holdings related to African Studies are strong for contemporary politics (particularly democratization), economic development, ethnicity and race, ethnographic studies, folklore, francophone literature, gender/women, history (especially European exploration/colonization), slavery (particularly the Atlantic slave trade), and social movements. Collections for population/demography (including migration) are among the most extensive found anywhere in the world. Campus libraries have in-depth collections for the francophone and lusophone countries of sub-Saharan Africa. Davis Library houses the major collections and services for African Studies, covering all the humanities and social sciences.
