K-12 teachers are facing an extraordinarily challenging time as our schools recover from the COVID-19 pandemic. To lend support to teachers in this difficult professional environment, this study aims to discover how archives and special collections can make online materials maximally accessible and useful for K-12 teachers. Using semi-structured interviews with ten K-12 teachers and website usage data from the "On the Books" library guide, this study will gather data about how teachers find, interact with, and teach with the online resources for primary source instruction developed by Wilson Library at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The findings will be considered to make recommendations for some ways that special collections librarians can better serve this group of patrons with online teaching resources.
