    Front of library

    It is 4:27 pm and there were approximately 25 children in the library! It was more of a child care facility. I pay tax dollars to utilize the quietness of such a facility. I reported the loudness, running ng around and yelling to Teresa Garza , the manager on duty. Ms. Garza stated that this is a, "community " library. Is that what they are called now? Don't come here if you need quiet and concentration.

    I absolutely love this library! It is the perfect place to come and study, tutor or just come and spend some time. In fact, I have been to this library for al of the above and more. I get most of my reading materials here, have come with my younger family members to those events, have gotten multimedia materials, etc. Cody is a smaller library and being next to an elementary and almost next to a middle school, makes it a busy library with the after school crowd. When it was fully open, it was difficult to find a spot to sit because of its popularity. A couple of years ago, it got a bit of a facelift, and the parking was also expanded a bit, but this is still a very popular library. It is also clean, nicely organized and its staff has been here for years. In my opinion, this is a pretty nice library to visit.

    This is really nice suburban library serving a middle class neighborhood. It is clean and feels safe. I didn't see any homeless or vagrants that proliferate at other locations. It is a 2020 early voting polling location open to all registered voters.

    My favorite library in SATX. It does help that it is in walking distance to me, and I love the nonfiction bookclub once a month!

    The San Antonio Central Library is such an iconic staple to the San Antonio community and I think…read moreeveryone should visit this amazing library at least once a year! This amazing library is located in the heart of downtown and was built by renowned Mexican architect, Ricardo Legorreta. The building is absolutely stunning and has actually been featured in Hollywood movies. If you love art as much as I do you'll be happy to hear that they have a Chihuly inside the library, as well as other pieces of art by very popular artists. The San Antonio Central Library is so much more than a local library. Within the building, you can find other nonprofits that help support small businesses in our community, as well as numerous events they host almost daily. One of my favorite parts about the SA Central Library is their second-hand bookstore located in the basement. You can find some true gems in there, and all the money raised from sales goes back to the library. If you have children I highly recommend exploring their kids' section. My kid loves to play in that area and the staff there is always amazing! Last but not least, the library has its own parking lot and you can get up to three hours of free parking when visiting. You just have to validate your ticket at one of the kiosks located by the entrance.

I got there right when they opened and there were a lot of unhoused people outside, which caught me a little off guard at first. But once I got inside, it felt like a completely different space. What I didn't expect was the art. They have a gallery area with rotating exhibits, and the pieces they had up when I went were actually really nice. It didn't feel like a typical library moment at all. I also wandered upstairs and there's this big blown glass sculpture that's hard to miss. Super pretty and kind of unexpected. I didn't check out any books or anything, so I can't speak to that side of it, but if you're nearby, it's worth popping in just to walk around for a bit.

Their schedule is online and while they don't have as many story time events as I would like, they are quite popular and well done. Arrive a few minutes early to get a ticket for entry. The library itself is clean and welcoming with kids art and games around. The child area has small seating and dedicated computers for appropriate games. I like that the board books are in an elevated bin to easily sort through. Staff at the checkout/info desk were kind and helpful, too. Bonus points for having a playground a few steps away too. I also got my mom signed up for a library card for the first time in decades and it was a quick and easy process.

I was looking for a book called "Dark Matter", which the lady knew the author quite well. Sadly, it was already checked out. But she put it on hold for me, and recommended several more great authors in the field of Sci-fi mystery. I couldn't believe how helpful and delightful the environment was at this location. I was told there were trails with beautiful scenery to walk around a couple of the exits. They often have free classes here near the end of week and weekends. The meditation and martial arts sessions look promising. Parking was very plentiful at this branch and the landscaping was absolutely gorgeous. I will definitely be going a little farther for this one. What top notch service and selection!
