This is a bright, beautiful space offering so much besides the usual library things. It looked like there were a bunch of meeting rooms as well.

I stopped here to check it out as part of the passport stamp collection the library is running. The passport stamp, which is every library is handing out a unique sticker and after visiting all 37 libraries in Erie County, and if you are the first 1,000, will receive a gold library card. It goes from May 1 through Aug. 31., 2026. I love that the local garden club made a little dish garden. It brightened up the space. I was there on a Tuesday close to 6pm, when they closed, but the library was bustling. It was great to see.

There is a close by parking lot ( Sherman lot) , like 2-3 min walking . During busy hours it is really crowded. The computers are kinda old. Printing area is small but fast. They just have one bathroom for whole building ! So like if you want to use the bathroom you should go all the way to downstairs. In the basement there is no air, and the fans are really old. Third floor is good because has lots of light coming in and the colors make you calm and happy

There are always computers available, there's a little cafe, but it's hard to find a desk on the ground floor that has goo access to an outlet. The print room is hard to find, but this is definitely a good study location, which is what college libraries are mostly for, right? There's always an interesting display when you walk in and it's easy to walk around and learn a little about the human body. A pretty neat spot, though it does have a sparse and outdated feel. No rich mahogany or cathedral ceilings, but you won't find that anywhere at UB.

I was there in early May when everything is just starting. They had a little library book sale and I picked up a David Sedaris book for a quarter. There is a great children's section. There is also a wonderful remembrance area for Flight 3407, in the back. This library also had a cute Sherlock Holmes display case that was donated to the library. This library is clean and beautifully maintained. The librarians were friendly as well. There is a large parking lot. For a Friday afternoon it was quite busy. They had a great work area for people wanting a quiet space.

Plus they were open later, which is convenient for us. So after work, off we went. The Clarence Library has plenty of parking in a big lot, which was light-and-bright on a cold, dark night. As soon as you walk in, you can see the full expanse of the vaulted, open space. It is a nice-sized library, with well-marked sections. Movies are to the right, adult books to the left, teen and children materials in the back, periodicals in the back-right corner, with all the other sections you'd expect to find at a library somewhere in between. There were computer workstations spread out in pod-like setups throughout the space, a few together in each pod, and some chunks of seating areas too. It took me a minute to find my Harry Potter items, as the books were not in Youth or YA, but rather in a separate "Series" section in the middle of the library. And the movies were in a separate "Family Viewing" section, too. But a friendly librarian helped me find everything that I needed, which was all in stock. Clarence is a very nice, bright, inviting library. When we need something and the hours/availability are convenient again at Clarence Library, we'll be back! :-)

This actually is the smallest library I've ever been in. I realize there are smaller ones around,…read morejust not ones I've visited. I was at Island Park, which is behind the library when I remembered I had a book in the car that I had to return so popped in here. The librarian behind the desk was very nice and wanted to make sure I was aware of the new rule about books being 'quarantined' for 72 hours before being checked back in. Good to know incase you look on line and think your book hasn't been properly returned. I already knew it but still nice that they point it out. Side note, the 72 hours will not make your book late if you go beyond the return date. As I said, very small but comfortable and if the book you want isn't there you can always order it. Just limits your 'browsing' for a book. Still worth visiting.

Although it's small, this library ticks most of the boxes for a successful community anchor (as…read morelibraries tend to be). Firstly, there are postings everywhere for community events, like a free concert in two days. Other signs announce free classes, as for crocheting. Secondly, the librarian on duty recognizes the patrons, and calls them by name. Many arrive for the free internet usage. (It's a Federal initiative, to make the Web available to everyone, regardless of income). Thirdly, there's lots of large print books, magazines, movies on CDs, and many large comfortable chairs. The children's books are in a separate room: Both rooms have lots of art. It's a small library, so the parking lot is small; hence a 30-minute parking limit.
