As we head outdoors this summer, let's incorporate these simple and fun STEAM-based activities.

Summer at the Rochester Hills Public Library is a season filled with discovery, creativity, and fun for children of all ages. When school is out, the library becomes a place where imaginations can grow, and new adventures begin.

May is Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month. To celebrate, I’m highlighting titles written by Asian authors, including one upcoming release to look out for this summer!

Moving abroad, learning a new language, and immersing yourself in a new culture are challenges many in our community experience. With that in mind, our English Language Learners (ELL) Conversation Group and ELL Book Clubs provide a safe and fun place for our patrons to practice their English.

Favorite Authors Club is how you can automatically be put on hold for new releases by popular authors. We have a list of 45 bestselling authors. Each time one of the authors releases a new book, we place everyone who has signed up for that author on hold well before the book is even published.

RHPL’s Outreach Services partners with five senior communities to make library materials more accessible. The library’s partners house the mini-branches, while RHPL provides the materials that patrons can check out. The mini-branches’ collections are selected and maintained by Outreach Services, with new books delivered each week.

Each week, vote on which books you think are the best. Your vote will help decide which books advance to the next round!

Whether you're drawn to witty romantic comedies, timeless classics, or steamy reads that keep you turning pages late into the night, Rochester Hills Public Library has a love story just for you.

Get ready for the ultimate team book competition, this time for adults! Here’s how it works: Gather your team of 2 to 6 readers. Only one person from the team needs to register. You can register at any time before the event but we recommend registering early to receive updates and reminders.
