Our Reference Department has grown.

We have a Reference Librarian on staff available to help you in person:

If you have a question but the Reference Librarian is not available, you can call 245-7686 and leave the question with another staff member who will pass the information on.

OR

E-mail reflib.gh@gmail.com

You can also email a question using our Ask a Reference Librarian link.

Providing us with your email address will allow us to let you know quickly if a book you have requested has come in, or about our exciting upcoming programs.  Email it to the reference/circulation staff at reflib.gh@gmail.com along with your name and library card number.

 


Our Reference Room

We offer general reference resources like encyclopedias and dictionaries, as well as Internet Databases available through OSL.

Our Rhode Island Collection, which is currently being updated, provides information about Warren and Rhode Island history. We also have a Preservation Collection for preservation and restoration information.

There are two public computers available in the Reference Room. Each has Internet access through Internet Explorer, as well as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access programs. The OSL library catalog can also be accessed from each terminal.

To use a computer, please sign in at the sign up sheet at the Reference Desk.
