Supporting * Equity * Inclusion * Literacy

The Rochester Public Library is such an amazing resource to our community.  Equity, inclusion and literacy are among the many reasons I support this incredible institution.  They are thoughtful and strategic in their stewardship, and compassionate and thorough in their execution.  They go the extra mile to provide resources for everyone who requests service.  Not only do they provide materials for our neighbors to survive, but also the means for them to thrive.  

Please let me know if you would like to learn about the amazing programs and work they do from reaching out to marginalized groups to make sure their voices are heard in regards to library services, to providing training for those who seek to serve on a board or run for office.  They provide tax forms, job coaching, homework help, delivery for those who are homebound, and Wi-Fi through a variety of sources.  

As times get better you can borrow a telescope or bicycle from our library and convert old photos and home movies to digital formats.  In the bitter cold months, they make sure to have hats, mittens and scarves on hand for those who need them.

Currently you can get seeds to plant a garden, read magazines digitally at home, research your ancestry, learn a language and get live tutoring help with school work.  I have only mentioned a fraction of all the great resources available.

Please join me in supporting our wonderful library and all they do.
