ERICKSON MUSEUM AND LIBRARY

The museum and library are worth a look, especially the surprisingly well-equipped and well-stocked library. They are housed in a building that was built by the Morton Salt Company when they first settled on the island and where the Erickson family who came here to run the salt giant lived. The museum tells the story of the island to which the life of the company is inextricably linked. Original documents and rare photographs serve as illustrations.
