Taylor Branch Collection at Chapel Hill

Published on 27 August 2010 by Taylor Branch in General, The Clinton Tapes

On February 23, I went to Chapel Hill, North Carolina for the formalÂ opening of all my Clinton files, includingÂ dictation tapes and written exchanges with the President. They are areÂ available to researchers who visit the Southern Historical Collection at UNC’s Wilson Library. These Clinton materials now join the much larger collection ofÂ civil rights research gathered for theÂ King era trilogy, which I depositedÂ in 2006.

To contact the library or review a finding aid for the Clinton and MLK files, go to:Â http://www.lib.unc.edu/mss/inv/b/Branch,Taylor.html

Praise for the King Era Trilogy
