Hands down, the best library I have ever seen. Even my bookworm stepmom who lives in Vestavia admits that it puts hers to shame! Countless activities for adults and kids, ranging from recurrent meetings for dementia caregivers to magic shows for the kiddies. Learn to knit, quilt, etc. Borrow paper books or ebooks! Borrow DVDs and music! Staff are friendly, extremely knowledgeable and eager to help. It’s nice to encounter people who seem to actually enjoy their work. There are study rooms, a café, an atrium for leisurely reading and even a «Phone Booth» in which you can make or receive calls on your cell phone without disturbing other patrons. What an asset to our community!

This is one of Hoover’s greatest assets! Not even kidding. It has everything. Books, e-​books, movies, study area, mobile app, magazines, café, computers, Wi-​Fi. All you need is residence proof and you sign up for free. Use the app and checkout e-​books. If they don’t have a book they are tied into all the libraries in Jefferson County and they will get it from another library for you. Kid area, teen area, adult areas. They recently completed a renovation and it looks great. If your kid or you wants to sit on the floor and read it isn’t a scary dirty thought. So clean in here. They have an AV section also. My wife recently binged watched all of Downton Abbey to get ready for Season 6 and she got all the DVDs free from the library. They send you an e-​mail when the books are about to be due and you can renew right on the app. They have live readings, and speakers from time to time. The café is clean and well run. Do yourself a favor, go here, go often.

Wow. This library is amazing. Definitely the best library I have ever been in. They even have a theater. Everything is up to date. I was able to download the library app on to my smart phone so I can download ebooks. I was also able to renew my books on my phone. Great kids area and lots of books for ask ages. Teens even have their own section.
There is a lot of activities at the library for kids and adults alike. Check it out!

Among other benefits, the library is the home of Southern Voices: a Celebration of Writing, Music, and Art, held each year in February.
The 2012 conference will include an evening with Scott Turow, an artist’s reception with Arthur Price, a keynote address by Karin Slaughter, and featured authors Mark Childress, Vanessa Diffenbaugh, Anna Jean (A.J.) Mayhew, Jeffrey Stepakoff, and James L. Swanson.
Southern Voices is supported by the City of Hoover, the Alabama Humanities Foundation, the National Endowment for the Humanities, and Friends of Hoover Public Library.
