About us
Our Foundation provides funding to help our library test new programs, services, and technology to better serve our community and allow area residents and visitors to thrive, especially those who are most challenged (including lower income, BIPOQ and LGBTQIA+). We look to provide data to determine if services are needed, useful, and cost-effective.
In addition to books (print, audio, digital), we provide free resources to our community, especially technology, knowing how vital internet connection is in our world. We especially serve those who have the least and strategize ways to make our services accessible to our most vulnerable. With the rise in mental health, addiction, and housing needs, we look to provide connection to services, technology, and a safe space.
We add Feature Views for every $ you pay.
Every $1 you chip in to feature Rochester Public Library Foundation gets them featured 100 times to help them get more votes and supporters.
