Gaudet Library has just received a gift of 100 new books. These books were a donation from the Brownstone Book Fund, a private foundation in New York City, interested in fostering early reading, a love of books, and encouraging parents and children to read together. These titles were selected by a group of Rhode Island School and Public Librarians. We hope that this gift will encourage more students to check out books for pleasure reading.
