Reviews
"Very rude and unprofessional staff. Usual behavior for this area. They make a simple trip to the library excruciating."
"Way too small, there are not enough tables. The whole place smells stuffy, no air flow. The bathroom also is randomly closed off for an hour."
"I love this library. The staff are so friendly and helpful & the space is well-maintained. The internet is reliable and fast. There are computers available for public use. It's kind of a drag to use the restroom as you need to be "escorted" to and from, but at least it's safe & clean!"
"A quiet and small place but I don't like how they treat you like criminals when you ask to use the bathroom. They need to take your ID and write down your address just so you can use the bathroom. Then a security guard has to escort you with the key. Even if they wrote down my address within the hour and I am the only one there, I still have to show them my ID so they can start the process all over again. It is so ridiculous"
"I have been coming here with my children since they were born. Whether it be story time, arts and crafts, or the small fair they held a few years ago. They are really good with promoting movies and books (my sons went crazy for the LEGO movie promotion they did). The staff is very knowledgeable and polite."
