Reviews
"It is a very good library with books. However, the bathroom is hell and so old. It needs to be renovated."
"Had a nice time here read a book and came out and getting my libray card here so that i can borrow out books and read n stuff. I the libray is spacy and roomy."
"It has a good selection of movies and children's books. It doesn't have a great selection of adult books. You're not allowed to fall asleep for 5 minutes or sit in the wrong place, however. A security guard will harrass you."
"I visit this library from time to time. Staff, including security, have always been helpful. Community forgets that libraries are for public use and people should act accordingly. As patrons, we should enter respectfully and educated. Services that are provided free to community should not be taken advantage of. Kindness and respect will get you a long way!!!"
"My first time at this location. I walked in and an employee was talking very loudly to to someone. They were talking for about 20 minutes. I mean come on it's a library, if you must talk then speak quietly. At least 3 people in the library were talking on the phone. This location does have a guard and he told the people they couldn't be on the phone. I understand that you really can't always control what people do, but the employee loudly talking is a different story. I mean you work there, why are you do loud? You should know better."
