The NCGS will photocopy out-of-print publications (or portions of the publications) as a convenience to clients, for a modest charge.

Theses and Dissertations

Theses and dissertations are held in the NCGS office which most closely matches the area of responsibility (Coastal Plain, Piedmont, or Mountains) of the thesis or dissertation. The North Carolina Geological Survey maintains lists of theses and dissertations in its holdings (see Open-file report 90-2). Also available are theses and dissertations by county, currently held in the NCGS main office. For a list of holdings for the Coastal Plain or Asheville offices contact these offices.
