Reviews
"The bookstore is great... Affordable DVDs and books... The people who work here are wonderful and patient with those who have disabilities"
"Whatever bozo butthead chumps were in charge of the eclipse event should be ashamed. Such an unorganized mess - intentional or not it caused unnecessary panic. Just barely were able to get them within a horde of nearly 200 people after waiting in 2 lines (100 appeared before the event started). Detail was needed yet provided no ease to the situation. Pathetic!"
"super cute and cozy library section for kids. we always find great reads. the older librarians can be a bit snappy in how they interact with folks but besides that it’s small but big enough for kids to play and have space to read. there’s also computers which are easy to navigate, dvds, cds. the bathroom decor is super cute. there’s free parking and it’s easy to find."
"Very friendly library, for the most part. Very clean including bathrooms which is amazing. Have a coffee shop and area on 1st floor for eating and special places for talking, there and upstairs. Great library!"
"Great library! They always have good events for children and are very helpful with recommendations, if you need. There is a historical (original) part in the building, to the left, that is gorgeous. You feel like you are in a museum. It has stained windows and a beautiful fireplace. The building was built in 1881 by a famous architect Henry Hobson Richardson and is listed in the U.S. National Register of Historic Places and U.S. National Historic Landmark. The landscaping design around the library is awesome and always very well taken care of."
