I went here yesterday to make copies of contract-related material. I went back today to scan those…read moresame documents. I thought I could scan at home but couldn't, and the Huntersville library is closed for renovations. On my first day here (yesterday), I watched a man on a computer sneeze directly into his hands and continue typing, I walked by a little girl who coughed twice loudly without covering her mouth, and I accidentally dropped my change so all the coins went rolling under the bookshelves. I literally got on my hands and knees to search and collect the change--they were quarters! Today I went back and let the librarian know that I hadn't scanned anything in years. I pretended I was dumb so she would walk me through it. It worked. Very seamless experience. Prior to finishing this review, I just received an email reply from the person I'm sending this info to. That email reads: "Thanks, Tyler (my pen name). All that's missing now is a copy of a voided check." Back to the library!

Coming up to the building you would never of thought it would be in a almost residential area. The…read moreparking lot is small and the outside of the library look big but it's small on the inside. The registration was easy but the girl who registered us didn't explained much and didn't say much unless asked she didn't give us any information at all. The selection is ok it's a little bit of everything. There's different area for computer uses some room for learning experiences and there's some kids activity and computer. They have summer break reading activity where you can earn ticket to Carowinds which is cool

Cute shop, surprisingly extensive selection of used books, tote bags, toys, & other fun…read moreknick-knacks. I went there for the first time yesterday to trade-in some books. The process was super easy. I went partly in hopes of finding a used copy of a novel my Book Club has been wanting to read, but isn't at the library. I was shocked/overjoyed to find TWO copies, both of which I purchased on the spot. Great value for sure. Can't wait to go back & browse their selection more fully when I have more time. (I will definitely be bringing more books to trade-in also.) *The shopping center where this is located has a lot of other fun gems also- check out Ferrucci's!

A girlfriend and I visited the book store during one of their sales where you buy 20 and pay for…read more10. I love physical books, but don't buy them often because I have a Kindle and because they've gotten expensive over the years. HOWEVER, give me a deal and it's on! HAHA! I had never been to this book store until the sale. It's small, but there's such a good selection of used books. The used books are also in really good shape. The team member on site the day we went was GREAT! He took the time to assist us in looking for books on our lists and giving us recommendations for other books to read. I also like the idea that you can bring the books back that you purchase, for a percentage off on your next book. Check them out, explore the selection they have, and support local!

This place is amazing. The library is perfectly sized and stocked with everything needed for…read moretoddlers all thw way up to seniors. The active living space is a pleasant surprise. The gym has all the equipment and weights for all fitness levels. The separate fitness space is perfect for classes which they have an established schedule for. Yet, it is typically open for anyone to use. They also have a pool room, activity room, and flex space with kitchen minus an oven.

I have been coming here since May, and I'm consistently impressed with the Afton Ridge Public…read moreLibrary. I haven't ventured into the active living area, but I hear it's quite nice. The team here is outstanding - they're always ready to assist, genuinely attentive and very helpful. Beyond the wonderful staff, the library itself is always immaculately kept. You can print color/BW pages here for .25 cents each, and you can also reserve a conference room. Having said that, what truly sets this branch apart are the programs that they regularly host. They are great for encouraging patrons to explore more books, while making reading a part of your everyday routine. While I've patronized the downtown Concord Library for 13 years, Afton Ridge has become my new preferred spot. It seems like kismet that my 450th review is exploring one of my new favorite places :-)

I use the library often to do business work when my grandchildren are visiting and something…read moreimportant comes up that needs my attention. I know this sounds bad but there are times you need to find a quite place to focus so about 6 or 7 times per year I go to the Florence S. Shanklin library near my house. Their wifi is fast enough and I have found the place to be very quiet. Not sure when the other reviewer was there but a noisy place has not been my experience. All I can tell my friends and neighbors is go try the place, especially in the spring and fall, the have a beautiful green park surrounding the facility. Great for listening to the birds and relax. Then go in and check out some books, they have a good selection books and staff is very courteous and helpful.

I come here mainly to use the wifi and pickup/checkout books. If you are looking for a quiet place…read moreto read, study, or surf the web, this is DEFINITELY. NOT. IT. Seriously, this is the loudest library I have ever been in, in my entire life. Screaming, unruly children (I thought I just picked a bad time, but this has been an issue every single time I visit), a loud interactive computer in the children's area, adults chatting animatedly on their cell phones while using the computers or browsing the shelves, random people (who are evidently library "celebrities") hovering over my computer/space trying to small talk despite my clearly non-inviting headphones and aversion to eye contact (I'm sure their intentions are good, but I really just want to be left alone), and even the staff chatting incredibly loudly with patrons about their personal lives. It's a small library. And sound travels, I get it. But NO ONE is considerate and evidently "quiet" is a foreign concept. That being said - the selection of books is decent considering it's size, and it is super easy to have books shuttled in from one of the other branch libraries using the online request system. Be aware that the internet DOES have site restrictions - certain sites like YouTube are blocked, which is a major bummer because I do a lot of film/TV research for my job. Their DVD collection has some interesting choices, not a whole lot of new titles at this branch or seemingly at any of the branches. The circulation desk staff are nice and helpful, though there is one who I have witnessed be particularly sassy (on the verge of rude) to select patrons. It's bright and clean. Books? YES Wifi? YES Thinking/Reading/Reflecting/Anything Potentially Calming or Relaxing? NO
