Rochester Hills Public Library invites patrons to experience a new element in the library’s garden area.
This summer the library’s Outreach Department added new plaques to its garden area, identifying different plant species. The plaques are in Braille as well as standard text.

The signs encourage visitor to explore the garden through their sense of touch, smell and even sound. The mounting posts for the signs were a donation from 3-Dimensional Services Group.
