Whitford Library
Our Whitford Library was named after Ted and Ruth Whitford, the first co-directors of Hamilton House. The library itself contains over 700 books and includes mystery novels,up to date periodicals, and a large print section. The library also benefits from an arrangement with the Rochambeau Branch of the Providence Public Library in which we gain access to any book in the system.
The Library has recently acquired a copy of the newly published Rhode Island Short Story Club collection of short stories, essays and poems. Several of our members have their works included in this publication including Mary Kennedy, June Smith and Charlan Walker.
Periodicals
Current periodicals and magazines include: Newsweek, Rhode Island Monthly, onsumer Reports, Art & Antiques, National Geographic, Readers Digest (large print), The New Yorker, Arthritis Today...
