Community Asset
The Town of Roseboro is incredibly lucky to have a branch of our county library system, Sampson-Clinton Libraries, just past our Downtown.
Located at 300 W. Roseboro Street, our Public Library is a wealth of resources for the community that are free, accessible, and available for use. Providing access to free Wi-Fi; public computers; a vast selection of books, CDs, and movies; and a joyful "third space"* for Roseboro citizens to enjoy with their friends and families.
An active Public Library is an essential aspect of any thriving, small-town community. As the Town of Roseboro undergoes increasing revitalization efforts, the Library is an integral space for us to turn our attention to. Building lasting, strong communities includes stewarding the Public Library, which provides egalitarian access to knowledge, arts, and play.
See below to learn more about Roseboro Public Library's activities and services, and find information about upcoming programming for the rest of the fall (a Digital Learning session and Storytimes).
*A "third space" in a community refers to a social environment that is distinct from home (the first space) and work (the second space), where people can gather, interact, and build relationships. Examples include coffee shops, libraries, parks, and community centers, offering a neutral, welcoming setting for informal socializing, creativity, education, exposure to the arts, and civic engagement.
The Roseboro Public Library has resources for many wants and needs, including but not limited to:
- Book and DVD checkout
- Faxing, printing, scanning, copying
- Public computer access
- Public WiFi
- Children's Programming
- Online programs for language learning
- Online tutoring for K-12 students
All of this and more can be found at the "RPL." Additionally, the library is a fun and safe place to spend time for children and adults alike; all you need to do to be transported into a new world is head on down to 300 West Roseboro Street.
The library has a mutually beneficial partnership with the Town of Roseboro, which is presently felt and historically rooted. Navigate to our History of the Roseboro Public Library page to learn more about our town's historical commitment to preserving and uplifting the public library as an essential institution. The library is a place you can visit if you do not know where to begin, regardless of your question. If the library does not have resources for your exact request, it can point you in the right direction for addressing your needs.
Please take advantage of this amazing space which has deep roots in our town. We want to watch the library bloom alongside our wonderful community.
