The Tennessee Room serves to pay tribute to Emma Inman Williams (1906-1992), teacher, writer, editor, historian, and the first Tennessee Room Librarian (1972-1986). “Miss Emmy,” as she was often called, served as Madison County Historian for many years. Her book, Historic Madison, was published in three editions (1946, 1972, and 1986) and still serves as the primary introduction to Madison County’s early history.
