"I was traveling in the area and needed a place to host a few meetings, and the library was perfect. They had sound proofing rooms that we can loan for 2 hours at a time. Everyone who I interacted with was super helpful and so sweet. Nice and clean place. Free wi-fi. Could not be more perfect. Parking is a bit challenging. Parking lot is not large."

"So I made a last minute decision to get my library card here right before they closed. Initially I wasn’t sure if the librarian was going to process a library card for me but she allowed it and was very pleasant about it despite the building closing five minutes from the time I entered. Very helpful."
