The service of a notary public is called for by various business and legal documents. A notary public acknowledges, verifies, and proves signatures and administers oaths and affirmations.
To schedule an appointment with the library's free notary public, William Gee, contact him at geec@ecu.edu or 252-328-2268. His usual office hours are 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM, Tuesday-Friday, but scheduling an appointment is encouraged to ensure that William will be available when you can come. Please note the following about a notary appointment.
If your document requires a raised (embossed) notary stamp, William cannot notarize your document. His stamp is a flat, blue ink stamp. Most documents no longer require the embossed stamp, but some few might. If you need an embossed stamp, please consult the Other Notaries Public section below.

Please note that NC state law allows notaries public to charge up to $10.00 per signature, so e sure to ask in advance if a notary will charge and how they will accept payment if they do charge.
