Forest Park Library

"The staff are very friendly & helpful.. Me & my son stayed going to this library.. They also have plenty of activities for kids. Also, a nice area for kids to play at."

"I love this Forest Park library ! Very good and friendly staff ! !! Have always been helpful"

"The staff were all friendly and helpful. It's nice that you can print up to 20 pages for free. The restroom does require a key, but you can ask for it at the front desk. I'm not sure why this is a rule, but it seems to have kept the restroom clean. The neon sign over the teen section was a nice touch. Looking forward to returning on a day when I have time to browse."

"The women that care (and I say care because they truly go above and beyond) for this branch are amazing. They take the time to assist each and every person, and treat us all with kindness. They take care of the neighborhood children, elderly, and everyone in between that comes through the doors of their library. These women are knowledgeable, passionate, intelligent, and make the Forest Park branch my favorite place to be. I still believe in checking out “paper” books and will until it’s no longer an option. You cannot replace the experience with a tablet or screen. I typically check out 20-40 books at a time and they help me check them out, box them up, offer to cart them to my car, etc. My most favorite part is when they take the time to get to know me and what I love, and share more artists and or recommendations. The Forest Park branch recently got a slew of laptops you can check out while at the branch for the typical 55 minutes, which takes some pressure off of the desktops and leaves them more for the kids who need them. The branch is also now offering free photocopies for any copies or printing under 20 pages. If you need help making copies or printing off important documents, these lovely ladies are there to help you. If you haven’t been to the library in awhile, you or the kids should go up for story time, or just to grab some books! I know they’d love to see some new faces!!"

"Forest Park Library is a nice size library with a vast selection of books. It is Mostly busy after school hours and right at opening time. If you are coming to use the public computers it would be in the best interest of your time to reserve one ahead of time (I think that is possible). At this location they also have a meeting room where you can host meetings or small gatherings. One more thing, they have a bulletin board where you can put your flyers, business card, community/city information."
