About This Book

Written to celebrate the 2024 centennial of the Rochester Hills Public Library (formerly Avon Township Public Library), this volume examines the library's history beginning with the nineteenth-century efforts of literary societies and women's groups to provide public reading rooms. The story continues with the library's formal establishment as a taxpayer-supported institution in 1924 and its development as one of Michigan's busiest and most innovative public libraries.
