The Elsie Williams Doll Collection is housed in the Delaware Technical and Community College Library. Over 600 international and domestic dolls are on display. Elsie bequeathed her doll collection to the college in 1990, while Anna Teel donated her extensive collection in 1992.
Some of the dolls are handmade from countries around the world, while others are dressed in traditional native costumes and special occasion garments.
