The Lincoln Collection
Over 250 books are available on the subject of the Civil War and the life and times of Abraham Lincoln in our Lincoln collection. The collection is housed on the second floor, and the books in collection may be borrowed.
Connecticut History Reference Collection
Rare and fragile books and pamphlets pertaining to the history of Connecticut will be available for your perusal. With assistance from the library staff, photocopies may be produced for ten cents apiece.
