News Release

(Wednesday, March 18, 2020) – In response to the closure of libraries throughout the county due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the Central Library of Rochester and Monroe County has added 500 mobile hotspots to enable access to the internet for families who may not have a connection at home. The additional mobile hotspots are now available for residents to borrow from the Central Library.

Mobile hotspots, along with all other library materials, can be obtained via the Central Library’s Curbside Pickup service. People can call ahead to request items, which will be checked out, bundled and delivered to them on the Broad Street side of the Bausch & Lomb Library Building by appointment.

Anyone interested in borrowing library items should arrange for Curbside Pickup by calling 585-428-7300.
