Story

The Tufts Archives is a non-profit organization that preserves and displays the unique history of Pinehurst, North Carolina, from it's founding in 1895 to the present. The archives, located in a wing of the Given Memorial Library on the Village Green in Pinehurst, was built in 1975. It's creation was spurred by Richard S. Tufts, grandson of the founder of the village, James Walker Tufts. Richard Tufts and other family members created the Tufts Foundation, which provided the funding for the archives, and a small endowment. The archives operates through the generous donations of our patrons, the sale of images and graphics, and specific fundraisers. It is open to the public, researchers, media, and scholars free of charge.

Reviews
I recently visited the Tufts Archives, having driven an hour and a half each way specifically to see both this and another museum in the area. What I saw of the Archives was quite interesting, and I wanted to see the entire collection. The noise level in the Archives, however, was so loud I finally just gave up and left. I realize this is a work area, but throughout my visit, pop music was playing at a level that made it difficult to read and actually take in the text. There were several women talking as well, but I managed to block the noise out for part of the Archives. What was hard to believe was that one of the women-who apparently really enjoys Bruno Mars-actually turned up the volume as I reached the halfway point, making it literally impossible to absorb or enjoy. I happen to like Bruno myself, but I was very surprised and disappointed in the complete lack of respect for someone trying to visit the Archives. Yes, they knew I was there, yes, they saw me leave-clearly, I was interfering with their party. I've visited museums and historic sites around the world, and I can honestly say I've rarely experienced that level of disregard for a visitor. I have no doubt the Archives have a great deal to offer, but I certainly won't waste my time attempting to see them again. Very unprofessional.
