The library has an extensive collection of historical photographs of the library and of Branford. You can view the Blackstone Library construction photographs, a group of library postcards, a collection of Branford Carnival photographs, the Baxter photograph album and the VanDyke photograph album.
Be sure to visit our Digital Archives page as well, which features many more photographs and articles.
The library is also the repository for the Branford Historical Society’s photograph collection. These photographs can be viewed by coming to the library and visiting the Reference Department. Copying, printing and downloading of these photographs is not permitted, but the Reference librarians can refer you to the Branford Historical Society for permissions or to request copies. You can search the index to these photographs here.
