The kiddos started off on the computers. Then they moved over to the play area. There were train tables and a puppet area. Pretty small area for a kids area. But I know Englewood is a smaller area. It got pretty busy as it was almost story time. We ended up leaving early because the kids area got a little crowded. Overall, not a bad library. Parking isn't too crazy either. They have street parking and a parking garage.

Also, you can get a library card here if you are not a resident of Denver County - the only requirement is that you are a Colorado resident and can show something to corroborate that, such as a piece of mail with your name and address.

Its a 2 story building with the main study and reading section on the upper level. At the time of my visit the parking lot was not crowded and the homeless people inside were peaceful and quiet, mainly just looking somewhere to get out of the mid day summer heat. An interesting point of this location was the free snacks by the front door and not just any snacks but healthy snacks such as veggies and yogurt. Good place to come to read, do homework or catch up on business.

The DVD was on the shelf where it was supposed to be, so my mission was a success. The building is quite striking on the outside with interesting materials and architecture, nice landscaping, and a large parking lot. It was completed in 1962 as the last of four branches financed by the Frederick R. Ross Trust. The design has held up very well as it still looks quite fresh and contemporary. There was a major renovation in 1994. The inside is much less interesting, but appears well-stocked with a large selection of books, various media, computers, and a good children's area.

Walk-ability around the parking lot grounds is lovely, fresh cut grass, trees, seating and some shaded parking. The Parking lot is Huge, plenty of room for all meetings and clients! The meeting is immediately gracious at the front desk. To the right side of entrance there is a cafe with Croissant, chia, coffees to your taste and other delights with sitting and "Wifi" Sitting is all around in comfy chairs, plenty of books to read AND, Take a stroll down the beautify stair or elevator. There are desks a plenty, some covered, some large some small. AND a larger meeting room upstairs. Meeting private rooms from 1/2 hour to 3 hours, must schedule in advance!! Personally, I have spent many of hours in this library with my "Service Dog" by my side. Bathrooms up and down stairs, PLUS SEPARATE AREA FOR THE KIDDOS!! I have never had a run in with children as with libraries, this is a well thought out multiplistic public library!!

This is a popular location for the area residents as most of the tables and other seating areas also fill up very quickly. The few times I have been here I noticed that they offer snacks suck as cookies, chips, gummies, etc wrapped up in little plastic bags to anybody next to the check out counter on a first come first served basis. Sometimes Ive noticed issues with loud kids or homeless but security is usually buzzing around to take care of it. Nice place overall.

I'm not sure if we just went in on a weird day, but it seems that instead of air conditioning they had a giant fan on the ceiling blowing freezing cold air directly at you when you're browsing the dvd section (I think it ultimately got me sick as I was already slightly under the weather). The library itself wasn't very well lit and the layout just didn't flow that well. They did have a huge dvd section, but the kids section was small and not very impressive.

There's a limit, I can't recall off the top of my head, but it was a fair amount per day. You can get the Kanopy app and watch movies with your valid library card. They have reduced book sales throughout the year, I believe is 3 times. I volunteered at the last one and it was really fun checking people out with their books. I can't believe how many books some people got! The prices ranged from $1 to $5, so it's a great sale. Sometimes they show movies. I was recently told you can check out museum passes -- whattttt!?!? They also have a wood burner machine thing, no idea where it is or what all the random things are that can be checked out here. I need to ask more questions next time I'm at this library!!!

I have always found the staff knowledgeable, helpful, and very willing to seek out answers, no matter what my issue might be. There are enormous resources available here, far beyond the physical books and media on the shelves. These include community rooms and study rooms, a constant series of seminars and events, the ideaLAB maker space, the children's library, passes for many local cultural institutions, and the Community Technology Center (computer lab, classes, and workshops). There's a Healthy Snack program for children, extensive help to navigate social services for those in need, a number of book clubs, a book store, and a large collection of eBooks and audio books. There's a streaming resource for movies, music, and TV shows, a huge digital magazine collection, and digital access to The Denver Post and The New York Times. Research resources include BizBoost (research services to formulate data for a business plan), Digital Navigators (help with acquiring electronics and using technology), Nonprofit assistance, the Patent & Trademark Resource Center, and student consulting. There is a huge selection of research databases available online. The Western History collection is massive and comprehensive. There are extensive genealogy resources and a large collection of historic maps and geographic resources. The library also has an outstanding art collection. Some of the most important pieces are on loan to the Denver Art Museum, but the seventh floor hallways and the Vida Ellison Gallery on the seventh floor are used to display pieces from the collection between periodic, formal art exhibits. The fifth floor of the building is another highlight. There's a large lobby which is used for mostly historical exhibits. The Western History collection is on this floor. The Gates Reading Room sits within Symbol of the West, a sculpture of massive wooden beams designed by Michael Graves. The area usually features exhibits of photographs and artifacts from the Western History collection and is a spectacular study space. The library started in a wing of the original Denver High School building at 19th and Stout Streets. It notably included the first children's library in the U.S. The facility moved to the iconic Carnegie building (now the McNichols Civic Center Building) in Civic Center Park in 1910 and remained there until the new Burnham Hoyt building at 14th and Broadway was completed in 1956. Noted architect Michael Graves designed the current building which opened in 1995. It incorporates the 1956 structure quite seamlessly. I greatly admire the new building. I think it is one of Graves' best projects. Internally, it is very functional while the exterior is stunning.
