2019 Checkout Challenge!
We are challenging the community to take a fresh look at the great collection of materials available at the Romulus Public Library and help us reach our goal of 70,000 checkouts for 2019! You can checkout books, audiobooks, movies, TV shows, CDs, and more at the Library and e-books, e-audiobooks, music, comic books, and movies online 24/7. We'll keep you updated on our website and social media as our Checkout Challenge Thermometer grows. We want everyone to know what a valuable resource your Library is. Using your library card is a great way to save money and provide you and your family with hours of entertainment.
