Tyrrell Historical Library in partnership with the City of
Beaumont. Restoration of the Tyrrell cost $1.6 million, with
the Tyrrell Historical Library Association providing $250,000.
Today, the Tyrrell Historical Library Association actively supports
collection development and maintenance of the Tyrrell Historical
Library.
The collection consists of the records produced by the first
three presidents of the Tyrrell Historical Library Association:
Yvonne Osbourne, Mildred Hall, and Robert Robertson. The
records include correspondence, financial material, fund
raising information, and architectural notes. Photographs are
maintained separately with the Photographic Archives.
