Apparently, this is another example of the City of Apache Junction pissing away tax dollars by…read moredoing everything in their power to discourage people from using a new facility. The library is impossible to find, even driving around all day in the 103 heat, hoping you'll accidentally stumble over it. There are no signs indicating how or where to find it. Once you find it, there's a small sign smack dab in front, but you'll never see it unless you're standing right in front of it. The building itself is made of dozens of glass panels that look like doors, yet they provide no signs indicating where entry or exit doors are. You'll see a pair of doors all the way down toward one end of the building, only find they're locked. A large sign warning those doors are not an entrance would help, but that never occurred to the bird brains at Apache Junction. By the time you discover the entrance is clear on the far other side of the damned building, there's still nothing to indicate it's an entrance. Welcome to Apache Junction, a city on the cutting edge of the past.

Adj: Clearly Comprehensive and Incredibly Impressive…read more Chandler Public Library is a very impressive library. We really like books, so when we travel, we visit libraries, haha... We instill our kids with the love of reading, so they like going to new libraries too. Besides the books, obviously, we like to check out the architecture and the designs of different libraries. Some of them are really incredible works of art designed by famous architects. We visited this library on a SUNDAY. That's right, they're opened on Sundays. This is unheard of in many parts of the country. This was such an impressive library with massive stacks of books on the ground floor, and in the upper level there were lots of tables and chairs throughout for comfortable reading seating, and colorful art throughout that's cheery and uplifting for adults and kids alike. The second floor is also where they have an especially kid-friendly children's section, with tons of kids-sized chairs and tables and lounging sofas as well as kids-only computers. When we visited, there was a kids speech event happening in several conference rooms where kids presented their speeches and we got to listen in as an impromptu audience, what a treat! The meeting rooms throughout the library are available for non-profit community events and open to the public. Overall, the Chandler downtown library is an incredibly impressive educational resource and a gem for the community and we're glad to have had the opportunity to visit and plan to be back when we visit friends in town again in the future.

My son is really into reading and goes through books like there's no tomorrow. We have paid for access to the Queen Creek library because there is no other library close but I'm beyond excited that there is now a close library in our county. This library has all new books, a cute little underwater themed children's area to sit and read, play a floor puzzle or play with some of the block toys that they have. They also have cool modern seating areas around the library, a computer area, copier, fax and printer. Since this place is new the shelves and books are sparkling clean. The employees were very friendly and helpful. I also read that they are searching for volunteers so help lead some programs! We will be back for sure

One of the first things I noticed was how spacious the library feels. Everything looked clean and well maintained, which made it a really comfortable place to settle in and focus. There was actually already a line of people waiting outside for the library to open at 1 PM on Sunday, which says a lot about how popular it is. One feature I thought was especially cool is their seed library, where you can pick up seeds to plant your own plants at home. They also offer the usual cultural passes, which is always a great perk with a library card. Speaking of that, I really liked how unique their library card designs are. I was able to sign up for a card today thanks to a very helpful staff member who made the process quick and easy. Inside, there were plenty of tables and outlets almost everywhere, which made it perfect for getting work done. There is also a free charging center where you can charge devices. Parking was also simple. I parked at the Scottsdale Civic Center Garage, which made access really convenient. Overall, I was very happy with my visit today and will definitely be coming back.
