Vestal Public Library

"Great library. Very welcoming and friendly. We have attended baby storytime/playtime which is a blast and usually very well attended. In the children’s section, there is a puppet theater and lots of toys. There are free coloring pages you can take home. It’s a very cute place and my daughters (5 and 1) always love visiting. The bathrooms in the library itself are small and cramped but if you go down the hallway past the auditorium, there is a larger accessible bathroom with a changing table! Make sure to check out their book sales as well- you can fill a bag of books for $10, it’s an amazing deal."

"This is a wonderful library. The staff is friendly and helpful. The kids sections are inviting with their own help desk."

"A wonderful place, great for learning and entertainment. Everyone of the staff is extremely helpful and have great personalities. This place is definitely an under utilized asset to the community."

"We love this library. Our kids are 7 and 3 and they can spend hours there reading books and playing with the toys. They don't always have what we're looking for but we put holds from other libraries and they come quickly."

"This is a very nice library in 4cls. After the 4clsroadtrip, I certainly appreciate this place more. The parking is easy. There's usually a lot of space in the parking lot. Farmer's market in the parking lot happens twice a week now. The library went through some remodeling and became very modern, bright, and pleasant. There are plants inside and outside. Kids' area is huge. There are lots of toys and colorful small furniture. There's also a puppet theatre. There are lots of computers, desks, couches, and seats ll over the library. It has a small community cafe inside. There's nothing fancy, but it certainly makes the experience more pleasant. The library seems well staffed. All the librarians I've encountered here have been wonderful. They seemed to enjoy what they did and seemed enthusiastic to help. There are very good story times with a bubble machine. In the summer, they do a few story times in Arnold Park. They have lots of books. They played a big role encouraging my oldest to read a lot. There are several restrooms in the facility. Their conference room has a donated upright piano. It's not in its best shape and nobody has done any work on it, but people can play it when the room is not reserved for anything. They have lots of community events going on. My most recent wish is to encourage video game collections. There's much to enjoy, appreciate, and to love in this library. Come visit if you get a chance!"
