Reviews
"I like mostly all the libraries on the east side, that’s where I frequent. Clean, very helpful staff. Thank you to everyone who shows up and do their jobs it’s much appreciated."
"I used to go to this library when I was little. They had movie night in the basement on Tuesdays in the 1980's, a large kids area near the door, and an expansive fantasy/CD &Cassette/Novel section. It's a neighborhood Library that is now kid friendly and safer than in 1997 when they had creepy security guards and a huge, angry manager. I really wish that they would keep some of the older novels from when I was a kid. I would love to buy them now for my collection."
"Very well set up. The doors were automatic but not really working well. The staff inside seemed really nice and truly sincere about it. At least more generous than the usual bad service staff. All the library amenities were on hand that I needed and was able to use them free of charge at my whims contentment. Not a full 5 star rating because there was something off here as well that really didn't leave a good taste in my mouth."
"I used the library computer for about an hour. Before I left, I talked to the reference librarian about Spanish speaking books. I was glad to know there is a section for children to learn how to speak Spanish. I want to learn how to speak Spanish. I took Spanish when I was 11 until I was 17. I will be back. I know where the bills are for me to use and checkout."
"Awesome place to do research,very helpful staff but bad thing about it when kids go there its a headache,to much noise and the rudely kids use profanity & the Staff there have no control of it the Security tells them to be quiet in the library and the students don't listen to her & just laughs at her..I would've gave this Library a 5 Star rating.."
