Local History
White Plains City Directories
Various Publishers. Some volumes include reverse directories
and some cover
surrounding communities(see below). White Plains City Directories were not published after 1967. Because
City Directories ceased to be published, the Library keeps old telephone
books in the Reference Collection (3rd tier Reference Stacks - ask
Reference Desk staff for assistance).
