We invite you to connect to the University Libraries via this site and discover its changing public programs, exhibits, and collections of books and other resources.  We hope you will return often to these pages, and also to our libraries on the Bristol, Rhode Island campus.  In partnership with our Writer-in-Residence, Professor Adam Braver, you can look forward to an exciting variety of events featuring notable authors and illustrators.  Displays of rare and unique materials (both on-site and virtual) can be annually enjoyed, as well – celebrating anniversaries of notable American fiction and non-fiction.  Each year our University Archives will keep you connected to the institution through exhibits from its collections of historic documents, photographs, and videos.  Thank you for your interest and your support!
