Welcome to the Robertsdale Public Library. At the Robertsdale Public Library, our goal is to make your visit pleasant and successful. We want to help you find the material or information you need. So, please ask us if you have any questions or are unable to find what you need. You do not need a library card to use our reference services, but you will need a card to borrow material.

With our growing collection of audio and video materials, we are ready to meet the needs of the surrounding communities. A totally computerized card catalog system, and a knowledgeable, friendly staff complement this modern library constructed in 1992. In addition to its well-stocked collection that includes many of the latest best sellers and paperback authors, the Robertsdale Public Library sponsors various children’s and community activities. Young people and adults of all ages can find something of interest at this library.

COMPUTER LAB

We have 11 computer terminals with free Internet access. There is no fee to use the terminals, however, we ask that you limit use to 1 hour when others are waiting for the computer. Before using the computers, please sign in and read our Internet policy. Please sign out when you finish using a terminal; this helps us facilitate your use of the computers.

Children’s behavior is the responsibility of the parents. Please control your children from running, speaking loudly, and disrespectful behavior. The children’s area is for ALL children, so please help keep it in order for all to enjoy.

The library is a public facility and we do have the right to ask anyone who is disruptive to leave the premises.
