George Fingold Library

MISSION

The State Library has maintained a position of vital importance in the State House since its formal establishment in 1826. Starting from a collection of maps, statute books, and government documents, the Library has grown into a multifaceted resource for legislators, executive personnel, state employees, historians, genealogists, and interested citizens. Through political turmoil of over one hundred and seventy-five years in the State House, the State Library has continuously reflected the progressive ideals of the legislative and executive branches of government.
