Adults

The Adult Zone is a dedicated space on the lower level of the Roosevelt Public Library. Patrons from ages 18 years old to seniors can enjoy free services at the library. These services can include reading materials, a computer lab, private study rooms, online databases, a magazine and newspaper lounge, and a Job and Business Information Center, as well as a whole host of educational and fun programs.

 

The Adult Zone offers fiction books in many genres. The collection is primarily made up of books by popular authors with a separate section for ‘popular romance’. Both fiction and non-fiction books can be found in regular and large-type print.

The Adult Zone also hosts a growing Spanish language collection. There are many novels by Hispanic writers, both from Latin America and Spain, as well as popular novels translated into Spanish. The Spanish language non-fiction collection contains books in a wide range of subjects, from cooking to self-help titles, as well as biographies.

 

The newest addition to the Adult Zone is the Job and Business Information Center. This area provides review books for tests such as the ASVB, TASC (The Test for Adult Secondary Completion), TABE, TEAS, NCLEX-PN, and RN. This section also consists of books on how to plan, set-up, and finance a new business. Additionally, the area accommodates books geared for people learning English as a Second Language.

 

The Adult Zone also presents programs on exercise and health, computers and educational programs from Fitness Boot Camp, to Introduction to Email, to Dementia Care for Families.

All information is listed on the library’s website and calendar.
