History
The Mae Hilty Memorial Library was founded in 1953, by the
Ladies Auxiliary of the Texas Chiropractic Association. The library was
named to honor Mae Fivecoat Hilty, a chiropractor’s wife who gave her
life saving a nephew from drowning. With Mae Hilty as an inspiration,
the library continued to grow and, in 1982, moved to its current
location in TCC’s Learning Resource Center.
Mission
The TCC library exists to support the scholarship of students and
faculty, and to assist in providing information to the chiropractic
community at large. Toward this aim, the library offers a variety of
services to its patrons, and collects books, journals, and audiovisual
materials in the disciplines of chiropractic, basic science, medicine,
and clinical techniques. The Library also provides facilities for group
and individual study, computer use, and photocopying.
