Reviews
"Library smelled bad, dont even want to go back to return the few books i borrowed. Library feels unsafe, for children. Very disappointed."
"The hours are not the best, they open late, and they don't control the homeless outside, therefore it stinks, plus all that smoke, disgusting."
"Great library. The staff is really friendly. It's also a really great place to bring kids. The children's corner has a computer with games & various activities for the kids. However they cannot freely surf the internet on that computer. It's a small library, so if they don't have the book you're looking for, you may need to order it & put it on hold."
"If I could give this library 0 stars I would. I have been harassed and bothered by disgruntled and over the top employees here the last 2 times I've been here. The employees here are not only rude but they are also NOT helpful. I hate that the library by my house is under construction and I am forced to attend this public space that my hard earned tax dollars help contribute to. DO NOT GO HERE!"
"Cozy, comfortable, and quiet~ This is the perfect library to lose all the noise, kick back, relax and pick up a book!"
