****In addition to our closed Holiday Hours-we will be closed on THURSDAY, December 22, 2022 due to the dangerous weather. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please stay safe!****

Serving as a gateway to our current services, resources, and programs for those who may or may not visit the library in-person, our website is an extension of our offerings to patrons local and distant.
There was a recent cyber attack on MnLink affecting Rochester Public Library patron accounts. As a result, SELCO is implementing additional security measures to protect your privacy. Beginning immediately, in addition to your patron barcode, your PIN will be required to access interlibrary loan through MNLINK. This is the same PIN you use to access your SELCO account.
There will also be a PIN required for OverDrive/Libby accounts. Any users who were previously logged in to Libby may have to remove and re-add their card if they are not immediately prompted to enter their credentials again, as the app doesn’t have their PIN stored already. This applies to Traverse de Sioux and Rochester Public Library access, too.
If you have forgotten your PIN or need to reset it, please use this link or call your local library for assistance. 507-346-2100
We are overwhelmed by the number of orders that were put in for shirts to fundraise for the library! The colors are beautiful! Unless you have arranged to pick yours up with Tara at Between the Pines Design or had yours shipped, we have them at the library for you to come and get! Thanks again to Tara for all her hard work and generosity. (Please check your email to see if you have a message from me in case yours didn’t arrive yet.)
The library will be closed today due to a staffing shortage. We apologize for the inconvenience. Just a lot of bad timing. We will reopen Monday at 10:00 am. Stay safe and warm.
Look at this great news for Libby users! This means even more titles for you to read!
