Rochester Library Becomes a Shortcut For Potential New Patrons

Since the collapse last week of the South Avenue garage ramp, the doors to Rochester NY’s Bausch & Lomb Public Library across the street are open one hour earlier at 8 a.m. to allow pedestrians to walk through and ease the inconvenience caused by the closure of Broad Street from Stone Street to South Avenue.

“I think it’s turning lemons into lemonade, said Carolyn Schuler, communications director for the Central Library of Rochester and Monroe County; it’s given thelibrary an opportunity for some good exposure, she said. People passing through may come back.” Story from the Democrat and Chronicle.
