Greensboro City Directories

The Greensboro City Directories for 1884-1923 have been digitized by the Digital Projects Unit at UNCG from copies held by the Greensboro Public Library and the Greensboro Historical Museum. They are accessible through UNCG Online Collections: Greensboro City Directories with introductory information and a very useful search function across the entire collection.

Alternative interfaces, especially the "Read Online" version that is great for browsing an individual volume, are available through the Internet Archive links below. Included there is an 1879-1880 Winston, Salem & Greensboro directory, from an original at UNC Chapel Hill.

The GHM Archives has original copies of some of the above digitized volumes. Volumes below, protected by copyright, have not yet been digitized. They can be consulted in person by scheduling an appointment with the Archives. Alternately, the Greensboro Public Library (Central Branch, 2nd Floor, Microform 317.56 G81) has a more complete set, which can be consulted during their hours of operation.
