MoreThe Douglas E. Hammond Collection of Computer Manuals contains manuals for computer software and hardware primarily created by IBM. There is a small segment of manuals for software and hardware created by the Applied Data Research group. The manuals range in date from 1962 to 1983. Some major types of items covered include virtual machines, operating systems, customer information control systems and information systems. They are primarily targeted to the IBM mainframe platform. Douglas E. Hammond was a former employee of IBM who worked with IBM mainframes and collected these manuals from the early computer era. They date as far back as 1962 and go through 1983. These manuals showcase the type of products that IBM was creating during the exponential rise of computer usage and the development of the Internet. As is well known, the computer as well as IBM as a company have evolved and changed greatly over time. The items in this collection are evidence of both the change over a two decade period. They also add to a more complete history of computing and simulation. Hammond also collected some manuals from the Applied Data Research group that have threads of connection to some of the IBM manuals, such as the subject of COBOL, the Common Business-Oriented Language, a very early programming language.

MoreThe Edenton Cotton Mill Collection is comprised of several dozen sheets of blueprints and two sets of specifications that document the selected phases of the planning and construction of the Edenton Cotton Mill in Edenton, North Carolina. There are also a few blueprints of mill village houses designed by the Aladdin Company. These materials were originally part of the North Carolina Buildings Collection (MC 00225). The Edenton cotton mill and mill village represent a rare example of industrial construction in North Carolina's coastal plain. Designed by nationally known mill engineers, C.R. Makepeace and Company of Rhode Island, the mill structure itself features popular Italianate elements, while the mass of the building expresses the functional requirements of a cotton mill. The architecture of the mill village reflects national trends in the Colonial revival style of the supervisors' and engineers' houses, and in the "operatives'" prefabricated houses from the Aladdin Company of Bay City, Michigan. Other operatives' houses reflect vernacular practices common to North Carolina's rural and urban landscape.
