In mid-November, Rodman Public Library will be joining the SEO (Serving Every Ohioan) Library Consortium.  Making this move will provide our library users with access to items from 95 library systems at 241 physical locations throughout 49 counties across Ohio.  This also means that the system that we use to check out your library materials, and that you use to search for items in our catalog, will also change.

The library will be closed Monday, September 7th in observance of Labor Day. The library will reopen Tuesday, September 8th.

From September through December, Rodman Public Library will offer a variety of “take and make” craft bags for patrons of all ages. These craft bags will include supplies to create themed crafts as well as step-by-step instructions on how to create them.

Join us Monday through Friday at 10:30 a.m. via Facebook Live for entertaining programs from our familiar faces.

Make dinner a selfless act by joining us for a fundraiser to support the Friends of Rodman Public Library. Come in to the Chipotle at 1630 State St, Suite A, Alliance, on Monday August 10, from 4 to 8 p.m.

Rodman Library invites you to join us for our online book club “Books & Coffee.” The next book club meeting will be on Thursday, September 17 at 10:30 a.m. The selected title will be Becoming by Michelle Obama. Copies are available at the Main and Branch libraries or digitally through the Ohio Digital Library. If you would like to participate in the discussion, send your email address to cduro@rodmanlibrary.com. You will receive a link on how to connect via Zoom.

Get ready for the 2020 “Summer Art Experience” from home! Starting Monday, June 22, children ages 6-13 will be able to view six art lessons via YouTube videos taught by local art instructors. Art supplies for the lessons will be provided free of charge while supplies last, but children are encouraged to participate by using their own supplies as well. To register your child, visit our online calendar, http://rodmanlibrary.evanced.info/signup, or call 330-821-2665.
