    Jamestown Public Library - Stamped book

    I visited the Jamestown Public Library after I decided that I wanted to begin reading again. I had…read morenot been to a library in years and I was very skeptical about the selection this historic building would have. I was very pleasantly surprised! I stopped by one evening and as soon as I walked in it was like going back in time in the best way possible. This building is absolutely beautiful inside and out. I was helped by the library manager, Jim, and he was very friendly and helpful. He explained that the building was built in 1915 and was originally a school for the area. After being used for years it was almost torn down, but the alumni saved it from destruction and it was turned into a public library. There is a big array of books in all different genres and subjects. I saw some new releases I want to read as well as classics and everything in between. It was great to explore what they had in such a peaceful and beautiful setting. Jim let me know about book clubs they have, children's story times and that they offer e-Books, DVDs, and audiobooks too. He was very helpful and informative. I was able to make my selection and was given my own library card and saw that they still use the nostalgic stamps when you check your books out! I left with my book, my new library card, and a new excitement for reading!

    Came here on a Wednesday morning to get out of the house and apply to jobs. I live at the edge of…read moreHigh Point so it was only 12 minutes from my home which is a good location. There are three things that I pay attention to when visiting a library, (1) the WiFi, (2) service to patrons, & (3) sitting space. As far as Jamestown Public Library fares, (1) the WiFi was shoddy. I had to reconnect at least 5x (which didn't take long but still), (2) the receptionist halfway spoke to me when I walked in so the service was "meh." I later saw other librarians who asked if I needed help so that was nice. Lastly, (3) I sat in the corner at a table. The area had ok lighting and there were plugs available for my computer and phone. It's important to not that library is sort of old fashioned so don't expect too much.
