Featured Service - RB Digital for Downloadable Magazines
Rodman Public Library has changed our digital magazine service offered by RB Digital (formerly Zinio). With this change, we are adding 37 new magazine titles and up to 2 years of their back issues to our digital magazine offerings. Unfortunately, this changeover will require users who previously registered to re-register for the service. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
