The Library of Michigan in Lansing has a very large collection of Michigan city
directories, both in print and microfilm. This of course includes Detroit, Ann Arbor,
Grand Rapids, Lansing, Flint, etc.
This web site gives a general overview of our city directory holdings:
http://www.michigan.gov/hal/0,1607,7-160-18835_18895_20699-117864--,00.html.
If you are looking for a specific city and/or year, you can check the Library's online
catalog at
http://answercat.org; a keyword search using "directories" and the
name of the city or county will give you the best results. Or, feel free to call the
Reference Desk at (517) 373-1300.
Thanks.

You will find the Library of Michigan in Lansing; the Bentley Library
is
in
Ann Arbor.
And yes, the state library has a huge collection of city directories. I'm
guessing
you'll find some in Ann Arbor as well.
