The Haley Library and HistoryCenter works to preserve the
history of Texas and the American
Southwest. Housed in the Haley Library are thousands of books, original
records, art and artifacts that hold forever the key to our heritage.
The Library was founded by J. Evetts Haley in
1961 to preserve the history, traditions and ideals of early Texas
and the Southwest. It provides and promotes continuous research on this unique
period in American history. Dedicated to the memory of his late wife, Nita
Haley, the facility opened its doors in 1976
