Charles E. Stevens American Atheist Library and Archives
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Charles E. Stevens American Atheist Library and Archives, also known as CESAALA, is a collection of over 50,000 volumes of books, documents, and various other research tools. It was founded by the American Atheists and currently records oral histories of various intellectuals and lecturers.[1] The library is valued at between $1 million and $3 million and is considered one of the most valuable assets of the atheist organization.[2] The American Atheist Press is a division of the Charles E. Stevens American Atheist Library.[3]
In 1993, head of American Atheists, Madalyn Murray O'Hair believed she might lose the library due to pending litigation.[2] In late 1993 a computer with the only copy of the library's catalog was stolen and never recovered.[2] Formally located at 7215 Cameron Rd in Austin, TX 78761[4], it lost its tax exemption in 1997[5] and moved to New Jersey.[6]
