North Smithfield Public Library is located in the historic mill village of Slatersville in the town of North Smithfield. At the begining of the industrial revolution, Samuel Slater built his second textile mill in this village. Many houses are from this time, making it quite picturesque with white picket fences bordering the church common. The mill was constructed from local stone by expert stonemasons. Our original building was part of this mill complex.
The North Smithfield Public Library will provide diverse and easily accessible materials, services and programs in an atmosphere which encourages the free flow of ideas to educate, inform, enrich, and entertain local residents. Special emphasis is placed on supporting students at all academic levels and on stimulating young children’s interest and appreciation for reading and learning.
