 Library cards are about as prevalent as credit cards. Two-thirds of Americans have a library card. For many young people, the first card in their wallet is a library card.

New Self-Check Software--Let Us Know What You Think |
| We are running a trial of some NEW self-check software. It is only installed on the self-check machine closest to the elevator. We would like you to try it out and let us know what you think. It has some new functionality, including direct access to your library account and payment of fines/fees via credit card (over $5). If you get a chance to use it, send us your feedback. Thanks! |

The library is proud to announce a new delivery option for residents of Rochester Hills, Rochester or Oakland Township who are physically unable to come to the library because of a permanent or temporary disability. Eligible customers can contact Outreach & Bookmobile Services at 248-650-7150 for free delivery of library materials mailed directly to your home. This new service was made possible by the generosity of the friends and family of Ruth Biggs, a former home delivery customer. |
