The Rochester Regional Library Council is a multi-type library network serving libraries and library systems in the five-county Rochester region - Livingston, Monroe, Ontario, Wayne and Wyoming counties.
RRLC provides programs and services that enhance member library cooperation, service delivery and resource sharing. RRLC serves as a forum for the unified representation of library interests and
helps members achieve together what could not be achieved separately.
The unique role of RRLC is that it is the entity through which its members can coordinate and relate their diverse activities to create a more effective service network to improve information access for the people of the Rochester region and beyond.
RRLC fills important needs of the community by providing a broad range of services. The goals of the services program are as follows:
- Promote timely access to and delivery of library materials and information through resource sharing among all types of libraries
- Facilitate library staff development and management training to expand expertise in delivering high quality library services
