  Absolutely fantastic repository. I was so impressed with the two photography exhibits up right now. The curators did such a great job. I don’t think I will forget them any time soon. The selections from the Arthur Miller papers were also very cool and I have to give props to the processing archivists for getting a collection of that size ready for researchers in two years. The staff here were also very friendly and helpful, which is sadly quite rare with rare book and manuscript repositories. It is definitely worth a trip to the HRC if you’re in Austin.
