The Historical Library is an archive of books, documents, pictures, and small artifacts housed in the ESHP office in City Hall. The collection may be used by historical researchers but items may not be removed. A computerized data base of books, periodicals, and scanned images is maintained (with backup off the premises).

The Klotz Collection consists of 22 watercolors of local historic buildings painted by Bob Klotz for the 50th anniversary in 1973 of the founding of Collier County. It was donated by the artist's daughter Virginia Klotz and framed with a grant from the United Arts Council of Collier County for travelling exhibits.
