This is really nice because I don't have to worry about my kids disturbing other patrons. They also seem to have great programs for young children. A few different storytelling or music type groups meet. Although I was just told that 97 people attended one session and that would just be too much for me in the library to go to. The book selection seems to be pretty adequate, although it's not my home library so I haven't checked out anything!

This library seems pretty big and they had a lot of cool things to check out right on the main floor. I was interested in the book shop, which is in the lower level. They have a ton of books for sale! It was a bit crowded and a little hectic in the book shop room, but it's good to know it exists. We wandered around for a bit and I saw tons of new books, a huge DVD/Blu-Ray collection, a nice teen area, and plenty of computers. The layout seemed a bit random but I wasn't really looking for anything specific. Kalamazoo is lucky to have this nice library!

Same services, super friendly staff, and *all* of the parking is close to the library. Inside, you'll find a smaller selection of books than at the downtown location, but a big heart. The staff are fantastic and oh so kind. You can still put holds on books, and they will be sent there from any KPL branch, per usual. There are tables and computers to work at, games to check out, a lovely and enticing children's area, clean bathrooms, and a useful meeting room for events, etc. This is the ideal of a warm, friendly community library.

The parking lot in front of the building is free. Walking in the main entrance, new books are in the front and there is an info desk nearby. The new book section of any library is my favorite, and they even separate out the new cookbooks, which is my other favorite section of any library. I had fun looking at lots of great new books and then wandered around a bit. There is a great section of DVDs, video games, and even board games that you can check out. They have an extensive seed library, and I saw kits to test your home energy levels. Lots of great resources at the library beyond just books. I liked the touch screen kiosk that you can use to browse the library catalog or search for events. There is ample seating and I found a cozy spot to sit and use their free wifi to get some work done. I was impressed with the library staff as I noticed them acknowledging all patrons and handling all situations and interactions with care. I am a strong supporter and lifelong user of libraries, and this is a good one.

The library offered several great working spaces for adults, seating clusters and a large outdoor covered space as well. The librarian was very sweet and invited us over to a casual craft time as well. This will definitely be part of our Saugatuck rotation in the future.

I love this library so much I remember loving a series they didn't have all the books for. I contacted the author with the missing books and got about 6 books sent for free to me to donate to the library. The YA series Replica? That's mostly complete because of the author. That's the great thing about loving your local library: you can choose to make it better. I did reading events here as a teen (including being able to spend the night), listened to story time as a child and recieve my first library card here on a school field trip in elementary school.
