I am sure that I will attend more things in the library as time moves on.

There are so many reading groups and activities. And many great authors visit. You do not have to be a member to visit the library, there are too many benefits to list them all. Sign up for a tour! A household membership works out to be about 30 cents a day. A student membership is only $30 per year! Now the Mercantile library is renting their cool space for your special events including wedding! Visit and see for yourself. Great for residents, students and visitors! Highly recommended!

The Play Library is such an incredible place to visit for both kids and adults alike. I have taken…read morethe kids I babysit on multiple occasions and we always have such a great time. I was so excited to check out their new space on Main Street and it is absolutely beautiful. The main room when you walk in has some tables and practically every board game you can think of is available to play. The next room is more kid focused with TONS of board/games, blocks and manipulatives, cars, dress up and more! My favorite aspect of the room is the table that has swings instead of chairs! It is just so fun and whimsical. There is also a chair made entirely out of stuffed animals! You can become a member of the Play Library, and they have different levels of cost to check out different numbers of items at a time. I think this would be so great for families to have fresh toys and games to play with. Even if you don't want to become a member you can stop in their storefront just to play! This is a wonderful part of our community, and we are lucky to have it!

I was a little disappointed in this library. With some of the newer libraries in the area (like…read moreNewport and Independence), I guess I'm a little jaded. It was plenty busy when I was there on an afternoon between 4-5 p.m. I like that most (if not all) of the library branches in N. KY seem to be open seven days a week. That was not the case where I lived in E. TN. Anyway, I sought out this branch because of a little blip I saw in some local publication about a Princess Diana exhibit. I expected more than a couple of glass bookshelves with paper dolls, some magazine covers and some collector plates. I would have appreciated some related biographies, newspaper article clippings, etc. But back to the library itself, nice children's area and plenty of public use computers.

This continues to be my and my children's favorite branch in the Hamilton County system of…read morelibraries. Yes it is small. Yes it has a small parking area. So why is this branch our favorite? The customer service here is impeccable! We moved, and this branch is too far away to come to with any regularity. We have tried several other branches near our new home. None of them come close to the special place these librarians create. The Miami Township Library has created a magical place for children. If the children really respond positively to a particular song, Miss Kathy will work it into future programs. The librarians try and learn every child's name. This makes the children feel special. Another way they make the childen feel special is that they interact with the children before and after the programs. At the other branches we have tried, there are children who are clearly regulars. Those librarians show little to no recognition of them. They don't seem to try and get to know the children, new or regular. My youngest is always disappointed when we go elsewhere. Those librarians don't hold a candle to Miss Kathy, and all the other librarians and volunteers who make the Miami Township branch so remarkable. All the early mentioned hiccups have work arounds. The branch may be small, but items may be transferred here from other locations. Place the transfer from home, either online or over the phone, and the book/media items are to this location in roughly three days. Transfers may also be placed in branch. Additional parking may be found on the other side of the building, at the community senior center.
