Through the reading of literature, readers of all ages experience vicariously the lives of others, different time periods, places, value systems, and the many cultures of the world.  The Hilltop High library collection accommodates a variety of tastes, abilities, and learning modalities. Selections include works about other cultures and works by authors that contribute ot our common culture; works written or translated into languages other than English; the classics, including modern-day classics; and just good reading materials for readers to enjoy.  Literature provides experiences that are ordinarily inaccessible, broadens knowledge of the world and its people, and improves reading skills.
