Mission

Mission:

The WTCC College Archives collects materials of permanent historical and/or cultural value generated by and for the administration, academic departments, faculty, staff, special programs, and student organizations. This includes artifacts, official records, correspondence, papers, and publications.  Through its collections, the archives promote an awareness of the diverse history and culture of WTCC and our role in the community.

Location:

The College Archives is part of the Wake Technical Community College Libraries and is housed in the Northern Wake Campus library.

History of the Archives:

The WTCC College Archives was established as part of the Public Retention and Disposition Schedule adopted by the North Carolina State Board of Community Colleges. For a comprehensive list of all policies regarding the Public Retention and Disposition Schedule, see the North Carolina Government Records Branch website at:

"Provisions should be made for carefully preserving the records that are scheduled for permanent preservation... records that are necessary for long-range administrative and research purposes.  It is advisable to collect such records... in a single place designated as the Community College or Institution Archives."  -- Public Records Retention and Disposition Schedule; Oct 30, 1986 Revision

"Note: Colleges that do not have an Archives should establish an Archives program or request that historical records be transferred to the custody of the Division of Historical Resources, Raleigh, NC for appraisal and final disposition."  -- Public Records Retention and Disposition Schedule; Aug. 1, 2002 Revision
