    My love of this branch is probably 85% based on convenience and 3% Stockholm Syndrome. Overall,…read moreAkron has an absolutely incredible public library system, and I've definitely been to branches that skeeve me out more than Firestone Park ever could. I also wonder what this branch has seen because the cop manning the branch always has this look of suspicion on his face. I'm glad the librarians have protection, but I've never seen a look of such disdain from someone eating an English muffin. Akron Public Libraries has a great online portal and their own app, so checking out books is such a convenience. Firestone Park might not a ton of books that pertain to my interests, but it's so easy to get one delivered to them. Also I've been out of ink toner since 2016 so printing services there are also something I'm grateful to have access to. I can't say enough good things about the library.

    Yelpers listen here!…read more I absolutely love this library location!! The librarians are super sweet and super amazing at finding the information you need. They patiently ask questions until they have found the closest answer to the information you have requested. They have amazing activities for the youth, even an animal show where we can touch the animals!! I even got a free T-shirt in a reading contest and so did my youth! Please go here for any fun you may want, you will definitely be blessed!

    Came here for the first time to take my children to a story time that was listed on their website…read more We showed up and found out that there wasn't supposed to be an event. The lady and gentleman at the front desk even looked online and seen that it was listed and were really friendly. They went to ask someone else if they would do the story time. The woman they went to talk to came out with a piece of paper and greeted me with a "first of all, today is the 22nd so you can see that there wouldn't have been a story time today" as she pointed to a listing on this paper. As I tried to explain where I found the information, she started to cut me off with something about someone's husband, I didn't keep listening since she refused to let me get a word in. So I grabbed my children and headed to the exit and told her that she should probably update the website. A simple "sorry for the mixup" would have sufficed. I didn't plan on waiting around once the front desk said it wasn't scheduled until they mentioned asking the other lady if she'd do it, but I wish I had left at that point. It wasn't the worst interaction in the world, I know that, but I figured it was worth writing the review since it turns out she was the branch manager. I probably won't return to that location considering it was an impromptu "get the kids out of the house" idea to attend the story time at that branch. The two stars are for the friendly front desk staff. They were great.
