Special Collections Research Center

Beginning in the fall of 1978, the Appalachian Land Ownership Task Force – a coalition of community groups, scholars, and members of the Appalachian Alliance – conducted the Appalachian Land Ownership Survey to examine land ownership patterns within the 90 counties within the Appalachian region. This digital collection is only a portion of the Survey-related materials in the W.L. Eury Appalachian Collection.

This digital collection includes 12 of Fickel’s climbing journals from the Ralph Fickel Papers (AC-490).

This collection contains campus guides including detailed maps of the Appalachian State University campus buildings and parking lots. Also included is information about the university as well the town of Boone, Watauga County and Watauga County schools
