The history — and story — of Hill City and its library are interwoven.
Both, said Tammy Alexander, director of the Hill City library, had false starts and periods of non-existence.
“But now, both are surviving,” she said.
Hill City began when gold was discovered in the area in 1876 and became the second settlement in the Black Hills. When the word got out that there was more gold in the Northern Hills, the town was nearly deserted.
