The University of North Carolina at Pembroke’s Mary Livermore Library Special Collections and Archives strive to make our collection materials accessible to all as an unaltered historical record. Some of our collection materials may include images or words that are offensive. We do not support or condone these harmful ideas, and we embrace a culture that prioritizes diversity and inclusion. We make these items available because they are critically important resources for education and research while acknowledging their impact on various peoples and groups.
Our goal is to provide original descriptions of the material for the purposes of transparency and research; however, some materials may contain offensive language, negative stereotypes, and/or depictions of violence. Viewer discretion is advised.
Special Collections and Archives aim to describe these materials in a manner that is respectful to both the creators and those viewing the material today. Cultural competency is critically important. What constitutes appropriate description varies with context over time and is affected by the descriptive standards in which we apply. We encourage users to provide all feedback to help us continue to improve our archival description practices. Please contact us with any questions or concerns.
