    Our library is absolutely amazing. Their story time is amazing. The staff is amazing and they…read morereally want to work with people to make sure they get what they need. This has only been made more clear since covid happened. They have given out crafts and books and offered storytime and activities on zoom and from cars. They have saved my kids so much boredom during this whole mess. I don't know what I'd do without them. Thank you library and don't stop being amazing!!!

    This is so much more than "a place with a lot of great books," as the 10 year old family bookworm…read moredescribes it. We are visiting Bowling Green for just two days and already feel the reach and importance of the public library. Saturday morning we were at the SoKY IceRink seasonally opened at the Farmers Market. Your library card will earn you a $2 discount. Story hour sponsored by the library is also offered at the IceRink twice a week. Saturday evening we celebrated the Winter Solstice at the Capitol Arts Center at the 2nd Annual Music for the Solstice: a Celtic Celebration. This impressive concert with poetry readings and vocalist sprinkled in was sponsored by the Warren County Public Library. Thanks! I can only imagine what else this library offers the community. Today's front page newspaper headline was about the Main Library Renovation plans. Sounds like even better things are in store for that place with a lot of great books.

It was so strange among all the large campus buildings. I was able to get one photo due to the one way road I was on, but I did find some on the internet to share. Here is the history I found from the internet This early nineteenth century log house built in Logan County, KY is a classic example of traditional Kentucky architecture. The dog-trot floor plan and poplar, oak, and walnut construction are typical of the architecture of the region. Reproduction furniture, equipment, tools and clothing inside the Felts House accurately represent an upper income South Central Kentucky family home of 1815 Originally built by Archibald Felts on land near the Gasper River, this log house had remained relatively unchanged over the years. Recognized as a fine example of regional craftsmanship, it was moved here in 1980. Important characteristics include the traditional V-notch and dogtrot construction and the unusual handmade moldings, paneling, and forged hardware. Erected by Donated by Mr. and Mrs. Sam Houston Watkins. Dogtrot Construction of the Cabin Dog Trot log cabins are essentially two log cabins separated by an area that is usually left open. The area in between the cabins/pens, is referred to as a Trot & was used as a breezeway in the Southern States. Dog Trot log cabins are generally oriented so that summer prevailing winds could be used for cooling.

    This library was built in 2007 and is vastly different from the previous building. The whole design…read morefeels very sleek and modern; the designers and architects obviously put a lot of time into this and attention to detail. It feels spacious and open. Personally when I go to a library I prefer to look for a nook/cranny that I can snuggle up in with my books and laptop. This library does not really offer that. It has some tables to sit at, but each floor is just one giant room, and the sound from the other side of the library can carry all the way over to you. The children's area is not separated from the rest of the library, which I think was a mistake. Aside from my personal preferences, this is a beautiful, up to date library that is a great asset to Daviess County and surrounding counties.

    I love this library! As much as I looooved the old one, this one has definitely grown on me. I've…read morelived in a few different states now and this library still offers one of the best selection of DVDs and CDs I've seen. It's so nice to be able to grab something that may not be on the streaming sites, and have 5-7 days to watch/listen to it! I like the access to the computers at the end of every couple aisles. This is where you can find the availability of something. I have to say I have struggled with the system of finding books here, with the numbers and letters, but once you learn it it is easy. They have everything you want plus things you never even heard of or thought you'd find. There are little pockets that have tables/chairs to read or study in, most the time there will be a few open but after school hours tends to be busy. The parking lot is big and has two entrances/exits making it not too cramped. They have events in the little space outside which is nice in the summer! Get a library card if you haven't- they're free! Thanks DCPL.
