    Nice place to read, meet or study! Although some of the front desk staff are obnoxiously loud for…read moreno reason and or really nosy. One time I was trying to read something and had to leave because the voices were too distracting.

    What's funny about this library is that they are about ready to renovate it, and I still love it as…read moreit is. Usually a place that is going to be renovated is run down and ready for some love, but because the town and the citizens have taken such good care of this place and use it so regularly, their renovation is for an expansion. I'm excited to see what happens when it changes. As it stands, I think this place is great! Working right down the road, I frequent this library at least once a week. They have an extensive selection of DVDs and videos with many new releases as well as foreign films. They also have a pretty good selection of audio books. I love the small upper balcony that has a few tables tucked away - a nice place to do some work and people watch at the same time. The librarians who work here are always friendly and helpful. There are only a few computers for use (4 I think), but it's never that long of a wait - remember that Walpole is a town, not a city. The library loses one star for 2 reasons: 1. Their audio book loan policy. While books can be taken out for 3 weeks, audio books can only be checked out for 2 weeks. While, they can be renewed, I don't understand why the amount of time is shorter. I pretty much have to renew every book I take out. 2. Parking. Every time I have to park in the back parking lot (because the streets are filled) I feel like I'm about to get into an accident. The entry into it is too small, so if one person is trying to get out, the other person can't get in.
