Reviews
"Such a great library! A whole separate floor for kids and lots of activities. Free wifi, clean restrooms, and even pods to take meetings if you want to work there. Maker activities as well"
"Beautiful library with wonderful toddler program. Nexxus and I loved our visit"
"Great library to come chill after a long day of work."
"It's a beautiful library with a nice collection of books. They have an area for teenagers and a floor dedicated to children. The basement is for events, meetings and special projects and the computers are on the first floor. The people are nice and helpful although they seem clueless about events. There's not many places to sit but the seats they have are comfortable. They also have a security person that usually sits at the entrance and occasionally circles the premises. The location is clean and organized. Would visit again"
"Nice library but I wish they had more tables and desks for people to sit at. There are only a few and other than those it’s just computer cubicles. Also librarians chat loudly for long periods of time. Love when they have the fill a bag of books for $5 sale downstairs."
