    The children's area is wonderful and the staff are very helpful. My daughter really enjoys her visits to the library.

    Cute. Sharon's…read morelibrary is housed in a squat brick building just off the main square. The infrastructure is nothing to write home about but there are near daily activities for children, an excellent array of books on hand and more museum passes than you could shake a stick at... all things that combine for a great library going experience. The staff are cheerful, the late fees are lenient and the patrons friendly. It's the kind of place where fellow borrowers will be thrilled when you put them on to Huxley after seeing them checking out Orwell. Sharon Public Library is a quaint and restorative athenaeum.

    There's very limited parking, if it's even remotely busy, you will have no place to park your car…read more The librarians are extremely noisy. You can hear their entire conversations, all the time, and despite them working here, they seem to have no clue about their loud voices. Good luck focusing on anything while at the computer terminal as the librarians behind you are in full blast mode seemingly oblivious to the people around them trying to focus, very frustrating. Don't ask for change for the copy machine as the librarian at the front desk became extremely snarky about how the library is not supposed to make any change for anyone at anytime. I was seeking change for a $1 to make some copies, but live and learn... It's doesn't get any better at the front desk of the library where the workers sometimes walk around, being helpful, but again so incredibly loud that you can clearly hear them from the opposite end of the 1st floor. It's not only the librarians that are loud, it's the people in there and the library staff very rarely ask anyone to quiet down. The librarians will go above and beyond to be of assistance, but this library is best off being not visited especially if you hope for a quiet atmosphere.

    One of the best things about Sharon is the annual Independence Day Fireworks display and carnival…read moreat the ever popular Lake Massapoag - great for boating and fishing, light on the swimming due to the muck in the water. Definitely a small town, Sharon has a relatively diverse population (several Jewish, Christian, and Muslim communities centers). It also ranks high in gay family friendliness with a welcoming Unitarian Universalist Church right in the center of town. The town center has a post office, two classic New England churches, the town library, two small bank branches, a former-Starbucks-turned-French cafe, and a lot of trees. Also, two restaurants are worth mentioning: Pizzagando in the center of town has some decent NY style pizza, which is rare in New England, and Alice's Mandarin Taste is the best Chinese food outside of Boston, and they offer a gluten free menu, too. Down the road there is also Ward's Berry Farm, a popular local destination for picking your own fruit and picking up a few local organic supplies inside the main building. The Moose Hill Wildlife Sanctuary and Borderland State Park, each huge reserves of land on opposite sides of Sharon, keep the town quietly nestled away from nearby Rt 95 and the busier parts of neighboring towns: Stoughton, Canton, Easton, Mansfield, Foxboro and Walpole. Despite the quiet life, living in Sharon allows you to be less than 20 min from: IKEA, Walmart, Barnes & Noble, Whole Foods, Starbucks, Big Y, Shaws, Stop and Shop, Home Depot, Apple Store, British Beer Company, TD Bank, Bank of America, Norwood Hospital, Sharon Veterinary Clinic, gas stations and fast food on Rt 1, and two major movie complexes in Dedham and Foxboro in addition to the local 8 screen movie house (aptly named Sharon 8). There's a parking lot ($4/day or monthly pass) at the Sharon commuter rail station, but a lot of residents just walk using the numerous sidewalks if they live anywhere near the center of town. 20 min later you're in downtown Boston - pretty sweet. Halfway between Boston and Providence, R.I., Sharon was established in 1673. In 2011 Sharon was voted #11 in Money Magazine's Top 100 Places to Live (in the U.S. - not just in MA)

    The worst to deal with extremely unprofessional and insane prices. No formal abatement process and…read morecorrupt.
