The library is of a size that one would expect for a community the size of Alto, yet it has distinguished itself by the vision, scope and quality of its special collections. The Stella Hill materials are unique enough that they would be considered a major collection within a larger institution such as East Texas Research Center, History Center at Diboll, or at Liberty. And -- the staff makes their collections very easy to access and work with, with easily accessible materials and finding aids that are well-cared for and regularly updated. Stella Hill Memorial Library has established themselves as a unique and important complement to the larger archives in the area, and I encourage you to check them out as you make your way through your research. Thank you Stella Hill Memorial Library and your staff -- we all really appreciate your work and I myself look forward to returning to visit.
