The Library has an extensive collection of Rhode Island city directories and directories for some Massachusetts cities, including Attleboro and Fall River. Directories are located in the first floor reading room. City directories are arranged alphabetically by resident. Business listings are usually listed within the residential listings and in a separate section categorized by business type. Directories may also include lists of streets and wards, associations and organizations and advertisements. For Providence, the library also has a run of house directories dating from 1892 to 1933. House directories are arranged by street address instead of resident.
