Building a Better World @ the Library
One Person, One Program and One Book at a Time
As Library employees and advocates we know that you can “Build a Better World @ the Library,” the state-wide
theme of the 2017 summer reading program beginning June 16.
Each time we see a parent reading to a daughter or son in the library or a grandparent helping a grandchild select
books, we see a better world being built. We see it when a librarian is assisting a man or woman in using the Internet
or creating an email account or downloading an eBook or music for the first time. We also see it when an adult who
would normally have spent the evening alone in front of the television attends a library program and interacts with
other people.
I am excited that the Library is hosting its first outdoor family summer event, “Live! on the Plaza.” Guy Louis of
Chautauqua Express will sing, play musical instruments and get everyone up and dancing on the Plaza in front of City
Hall and the Library, possibly even the Rosebuds. I hope this becomes a series of outdoor family events each summer.
I also hope that we have one of our warm, clear, beautiful Michigan summer evenings for this first concert however the
library auditorium is a great rain location.
Please visit YOUR Library this summer so that we can Build a Better World @ the Library
together.

Library Director

ALLDATA Auto Repair
The Roseville Public Library offers a wonderful
automotive repair database called ALLDATA, which can
be accessed from the library. It provides the most
current and complete resource for automotive repairs.
This resource allows you to find the repair information
you need more quickly than browsing several repair
manuals. Just input your VIN number or your vehicle
year, make, model, and engine into this database to
quickly bring up information on maintenance, system
and component replacement, and service precautions
on your specific vehicle. Ask a librarian to show you
how to use this database today.
 Donations are currently being accepted for the
upcoming used book sale in October. Please pack
your donations in non-returnable bags or boxes
and bring them directly to the Circulation Desk.
We ask that you do not put donations in our book
drops.
 The Roseville Public Library now offers Wireless
printing! Simply provide your library card or email
address to the staff at the Circulation Desk to
retrieve your document(s) for a small fee. New to
mobile printing? Our knowledgeable librarians are
ready to help! Head over to the Information Desk
for further assistance.
 As of March 2017, we no longer accept
personal checks as a form of payment. We are
sorry for the inconvenience.
The Circulation staff would like to acknowledge our
Roseville residents for their support of the library.
We are grateful to be able to continue to serve our
library patrons. Thank you!

At the library we plan a variety of programs for all ages.
We hope to provide a mix of educational, entertaining
and craft programs. There are a few different ways we
come up with programming ideas:
Freegal
You don’t have to wait for a survey. You can also suggest
programs to a librarian when you are at the library.

music on the go? Want to search for new and
popular artists, or maybe revisit some old favorites?
It’s time to check out Freegal. Just log in with your

Android devices and take your music with you! For
more information, speak with a librarian.

libraries as well as libraries in other parts of the
country.

enjoy and your suggestions when planning programs.

those long summer road trips, laying at the beach, or

Growing the Roseville History Archive
Recently, we have received a few surprise donations. The first donation of Erin Township-related documents
came from Garden City Presbyterian Church. A deceased congregant left papers pertaining to land purchases,
chattel mortgage, war pensions and employment. The documents span 1880’s – 1920’s.
A second donation of 1930’s greeting cards came from an anonymous donor. We are currently working on the
genealogy of both parties to lengthen the story behind the donations.
If you have a potential donation of family documents, photos, school yearbooks or other Roseville-related photos
or documents, we’d like to hear from you. Call the archive at (586) 447-4560 or email [email protected]. Thanks!
