This is a very nice library. It’s got quite a few computers to work on, book search, great little area for kids and adults. If your looking for a quiet place to do some research for school or for work you will have to check this place out. Had one little kid freaking out, but other then that the place was really quiet. I didn’t need anything from the staff so I haven’t had much contact with them, but they seemed friendly when we walked in the door, busy, but friendly.

Great facility. Beautiful, tons of natural light, open. Super friendly and helpful staff. Agree with another review, patient and understanding with kids, and typical kid behavior, i.e. talking loudly, jumping, running away from parents.
another review says they charge for holds, not anymore! :) only 50 c IF you put something on hold and do NOT pick up your hold by the cancel date. and, you have, I think, I week from the day it arrives at the library.
great little nooks off the main children’s room with tons of children’s toys to explore– puppets, puzzles, felt board, etc. etc. fantastic!
**LIBRARY PATRONS, BEWARE! turn your books in early!
my biggest complaint is –and seriously– this is not acceptable.
they regularly do not check in books in a timely manner.
I’ve turned my books in on Monday, due on Tuesday, not checked in by the library staff until Wednesday or Thursday, one time, even 4 days after I returned my books! that’s right. my books were at the library before they were due. but the library did not check them in until days later. therefore, my books were marked as overdue, and you guessed it, I was charged overdue fees for these books.
this happened a few times, and I just thought I made a mistake, but then I started really paying attention to this. It happens at least a couple times a month that my books are not checked

New, modern feel– friendly help, and a large kids section with story time!
Professional
