I visit library buildings as a hobby, and Rogers Free Library did not disappoint during my trip back in July. I love the picture-perfect location, as the Gothic Revival style brownstone is nestled next to the cute post office and across the street from Linden Place.

My family and I love this library! When we moved here and checked this library out it was by far the best experience we have had at any library within any other community we have lived. We are regulars here and there is always something going on for them even though they are all different ages! My teenagers loves the teen nights like laser tag! My kid loves the kid activities like build a stuffed animal and other workshops, and my baby loves playing at the library with toys or during the story hour. They even have tons of things going on for adults. :) the staff is friendly and helpful as well. Thank you, Rogers free library!

One of the best libraries I have seen in Rhode Island. Spacious rooms for study- the community involvement is top tier Classes and events are ongoing- from job fairs to sign language classes they offer a wide variety of opportunities. All free of charge. The children’s section and teen section offer a wide array of activities for your children. The adult section has a vast selection of books- cds- dvds. Also available are computers and work spaces Clean spacious bathrooms- and wheelchair accessible

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Dorothy Bratcher · Jan 2024

I love this library. The employees are really nice people. HOWEVER, I have to give three stars because each and every time I go there, the third floor, which is posted to be the "quiet study floor" (there are signs saying this all over, in clear view) has patrons having loud conversations and conference calls throughout, and instead of staff informing folks that they are violating the rules and directing them that if they want to talk to go to the second floor, they completely decline to say anything to any of the noisy folk violating the rules. I have tried multiple times to study here and have had an issue with the above every. single. time. Further, if it is not a loud, entitled patron, it's the library staff themselves having loud conversations which make it impossible to utilize the
