Rosettenville Public Library is a public branch of the City of Johannesburg Library and Information Services (CoJLIS), located in the Rosettenville suburb (Region F), Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa. The library was known for offering a diverse collection of materials and public amenities. As a local branch, the cultural and demographic diversity of the suburb is reflected in the library.
