Beginning Tuesday, May 28 we will be bringing a fresh new look to the library by replacing the well-worn carpet that has been in the building for 20 years. We plan to keep the library open during the installation, but be advised that some areas may be temporarily off-limits for safety purposes while the crew moves our shelving to put carpet underneath. Check back here often for updates on the project - we'll do our best to let you know ahead of time what's happening during your visit and share some before/during/after photos!
The library is currently evaluating its website, www.rhpl.org, and your responses will help inform the library on how to best meet community needs with our online website. Please know the information you provide in this survey will be kept completely confidential.
At the end of the survey, you will have the opportunity to enter your email address to be entered into a drawing for a Friends' Store gift certificate.
Through the TLN Tickets & More program RHPL library patrons can purchase discounted admission tickets to the Detroit Zoo, save on discounted memberships, and dining. You can even purchase a pre-paid parking voucher.
