After several purchases and great experiences, they began shorting me books from every other order. Today, they've shorted me another 3 books. Often times I'd order and pay for hardcover books but receive a paperback.

Tried to support the library system and feel a bit taken advantage of.

I visited the Calvert Library with my wife and our two granddaughters for story time, and we had…read moresuch a great experience. The staff are warm and welcoming -- they start by going around the room to meet everyone, then teach a few simple sign language signs before turning them into a fun song. After that, there's another song, and the leader talks about the months, weeks, days, the weather outside, and what season it is. Then they read a book or two and finish with a fun activity for the kids. I may have missed 1-2 things in there It's really well organized and enjoyable -- a wonderful place for families and little ones to learn and have fun together. The girls 2-3 really had a great time, afterwards we go out to the play area and they play with some off the other children that stay after. Excellent

The house is undergoing restoration. It didn't affect the tour, which was interesting. The only downside of the restoration is that it prevents visitors from taking an unobstructed photo of the exterior of the house. If you're visiting with kids, remember to ask about the adventure map. Our son had a blast finding the different stations and solving the puzzle. Once completed, take it to the visitor's center for a prize. Another kid friendly thing they had was a presentation in the Greenhouse about musical instruments of the era. The Shops and food court were also closed for renovations, but the restaurant was open. It's worth checking out. If you have time, the George Washington Presidential Library is across the street. There is also a hiking trail.

Everyone that works here is always in character so keep that in mind if you talk to anyone once you're outside of the entrance. I would recommand this place if you are into history.

I was amazed at the self checkout and the free hiking kits with state park pass to use for free. Most of the books I looked for were checked out or unavailable.

The staff was very pleasant and helpful in assisting me. I noticed most books were new and in good condition in the library. The library was clean, and the new books displayed were impressive. Finding this library was east to drive to, find, and park at despite the busy traffic in the area. Definitely a library I will visit in the future.
