The Providence Athenaeum Library was built in 1753! And it's just a regular library, in which my risd student id card will allow me to check out books. There's quite a large children's book section, which is good for doing research on kids books, and getting inspiration.
This library is older than Canada and so the fact that I could take books out of it was surprising! But after a couple visits, it just seems normal.
The athenaeum is right on the edge of the risd campus, and across the street from the supreme court. I took out the novel "Kalooki Nights" just this morning.

You must must MUST tell me how that's going. I'm still dying to read it.
