The Carolina Center for Public Service was established in 1999 to develop and coordinate partnerships between UNC-Chapel Hill and communities throughout North Carolina. The Center manages several programs, including APPLES Service-Learning (which became a part of the Center in 2009), Buckley Public Service Scholars, and Thorp Faculty Engaged Scholars. The Center also presents awards and fellowships to UNC community members and departments for exemplary community service and engaged scholarship.

From 1997 through 2008, the Center managed the Tar Heel Bus Tour, a weeklong program designed to introduce new faculty, staff, and administrators to North Carolina by travelling around the state and visiting businesses, historic and cultural sites, and UNC faculty and students working in the community.

The records include promotional publications about the Center, the Buckley Public Service Scholars, the APPLES Service Learning and other programs, and records related to the Tar Heel Bus Tour.
