Wow has it been years since I've stepped into a physical library!!!…read more After igniting my love for reading again, I found I needed a more sustainable place to cycle through books instead of hitting up B&N every week or so. Columbia public library made it easy to register for a free library card all online! I could even start checking out books before my card was shipped to me. We decided to check out the place in person and what a beautiful safe haven! There's lots of quiet spots to sit and read or study. Checking a book out was also so simple using their little kiosks located all around the library. Can't wait to come back!

They have a large collection and if they don't have what you want at this particular branch, you can request it from another branch in the network. I've had a lifelong love of libraries and always like visiting, though I also borrow titles electronically via the Overdrive app. It's super easy to use and download/return materials. I particularly like the audio titles, as they make a long drive seem shorter. You can also book a spot upstairs to hold a private meeting or use a computer. There are a lot of spaces to sit dotting the library to enjoy reading a book or magazine - they have many racks of current editions. It's a very relaxing environment!

This is your library for all of that - and of course, the obvious - books! Although there's a bit more light in between the stacks than there used to be, and I was sad to see the gigantic fountain go away (issues with leaks, I discovered), this is still my favorite branch in the area. I've utilized many areas of this place for various reasons: The upstairs rooms for a quiet place to work on an important project The self-service check out Picking up books outside at the hopper and via the drive-through The printer, when mine was on the fritz Bonus points for also being the place where I'm getting my passport for the first time later this month. Whether on the phone or in person, the staff is consistently exceptionally helpful. It's the kind of place where problems get solved in whispers, lol. Take advantage of everything they offer, including Meet the Author events, tax services and being able to browse the catalogue and reserve books online. If you download "Libby, the library app," you can grab e-books and digital downloads after you sign in with your existing library credentials.
