    Maybe if you were being rude or obnoxious to them that's the reason they were crabby I do not think this library is run down.

    When I walked into the doors of the library to sign up for a new library card, I was very surprised…read moreby how small it was inside. Despite its size, it was packed with moms and their little ones for a story time morning. It was easy to sign up for a card with my license. After my information was in the system, I received my card, a magazine that talked about upcoming library events, and an insert that described how to access digital content. They let me know that all library patrons will have to show proof of residency every five years in order for a card renewal. I also learned about the fee structure for any fines. Luckily, they have a system set up to email and/or text you with reminders, should you want them. Since this particular branch is so small and seems to cater to little ones and their parents, I would probably go to another PW location if I needed to do research or was looking for a variety of academic texts. However, I do appreciate the nice service when signing up for a card and learning more about the PW library system.

    This location needs a serious update. It's basically a quick stop to pick up books. Very little…read moreselection and services (no place to relax or for children). If I really want to browse and check out books I go to Chinn which is larger. It would probably be more beneficial to close this location and build a larger more state-of-the-art library in Dale City. Psst -- Prince William take a look at the Germantown, MD new library -- gorgeous~!
