In an effort to improve the availability and distribution of Extension publications, Extension and CALS Communications are continuing to update our service model.

Extension offices can now order select non-sale print publications through Wolf Xpress, NC State's printing service, at no cost or shipping expense to you.

Additional information on non-sale publications, as well as our annual manuals, is available on the Order Extension Publications page.
