The best financial advice for book lovers? Get a library card. 💸📚

"I see it, I like it, I want it, I got it..." 🎶

Why buy your entire TBR list when you can get the exact same stack for $0? From searching our online catalog at home to picking up your holds in person, grabbing your next favorite read is easier (and cheaper) than hitting "add to cart."

Stop buying books you might only read once, and start checking them out instead!

September is Library Card Sign-Up Month! If you’ve been buying every book on your wishlist, consider this your sign to stop adding to cart and grab the ultimate VIP pass instead. Unlock thousands of books, audiobooks, and eBooks without spending a dime.

Due to a combination of scheduling conflicts and other considerations, the Arts & Humanities Commission has made the difficult decision to postpone Rowlett Sings until Spring 2027. This additional time will allow the Commission to present the quality of competition and the community experience that Rowlett Sings is intended to be. We appreciate the Community's understanding and look forward to sharing details about the 2027 competition.

Learning to say no is hard...especially at the library. 😂

You go in for one specific hold, and suddenly you're walking out with an entire stack you didn't know you needed. (And honestly? No regrets.)

What's a book you came in for recently that turned into two... or three... or five? 📚
