Texas has many diverse ecosystems, each fed by their own unique waterways. There are the limestone karst systems that supply the state capital and Hill Country with water, the East Texas lakes famous for sport fishing, and the rivers that crisscross the state and bring life wherever they flow. The Texas State Library and Archives Commission has titles to take you on a canoe trip down a lost river, to enjoy bird’s eye views of every Texas lake, or learn about the archaeological discoveries made in a stream near you!
For more information about access to the titles on display, please contact TSLAC reference services at ref@tsl.texas.gov or call 512-463-5455. Search the online library catalog for more titles of interest.
