We utilize the Faculty Activity Database (FAD) to collate your scholarship materials. Please insure that your FAD entries are up to date by 2 February. For staff members who do not have a FAD account or for others who cannot access the FAD, please utilize this link to submit the citation of your scholarly works.

For creative works of art, marketing, posters, and other scholarship that may not be typically accessed through library databases, electronic archives, and interlibrary loan, please call 828.227.7307 with any questions or concerns about submissions.
