This review is for the Route 66 Museum located inside the Library…read more Find the museum entrance to the right of the information desk. We were not sure what to expect from this community collaboration and it is an excellent collection of artifacts and information. The floor plan is roughly shaped like a "P". We almost passed a whole section so be sure to walk down the side aisle. A guest room has been recreated using salvaged items from an actual guest accommodation. Photos of businesses in their prime. The history of how a tent with cots eventually became a fist class hotel. One area goes over roads made of dirt and organizers trying to get better roads installed. Historical maps show early roadways in different parts of the country. The Ozark Trail association played a large part in updating roads in MO that eventually became part of Rt. 66. Information on the 'Bloody Highway' include mass murderers and sad accidents. You'll also find info on the'Will Rogers Highway'. Room keys, matchbooks, post cards, souveniers. So much very interesting information about who was involved in the creation of Rt. 66, how it was consteucted, how businesses changed through the decades and more. You can quickly walk thru, look at the many recreated full scale business models and photos, or spend a couple hours reading all the information. Free of charge. Donations welcomed.

This one is truly amazing. It is very well planned. It is inviting. You can check out an I-pad for free. Large & small meeting rooms, nice study tables. The wifi can get slow at times. There are separate themed sections, teens, kids, business, etc. The restaurant is a little pricier than I would like to see, especially since the location of the library is not in a walkable area. That is the only super BAD thing about this library is that it is FAR out from everything. There is only 1 bus that goes to it and I am a public transit nerd. The food at the cafe is really good, but expensive for a student on a budget, and there aren't any affordable places in walking distance. One plus, is that the food is a lot healthier than what I usually eat. The servers were cute and friendly. The shelving staff aren't super friendly. There was a water bottle on top of the I-pad kiosk for over an hour. I tried to flag down the guy shelving audio books, but he totally ignored me. I dunno maybe he was just a guy doing court ordered community service or something or in a bad mood. But I love this place anyway! One thing that I love, is that you can print using their printers via smartphone, your own pc or tablet with their mobile printing feature. I could live here all the time. It's awesome sauce.

When I pulled up to this library I was already impressed. It's so spacious with a thought out,…read morefunctional design that makes sense for a large library. The cafe space is no longer in use by the coffee cafe but this library still has a lot going for it. There are multiple meeting/ community rooms and reading lounges. The children's library is huge and every librarian that I spoke with was so helpful and nice. Desks, tables and armchairs are all over the place. It's wonderful here.

This is a nice, small library nestled right inside a neighborhood not far from Battlefield Mall…read more The layout in the entry way is awkward in that the New Book section is right inside the entrance basically. A huge plus to this location is there is so much seating. Desks with swivel trays for your laptop, loveseats, armchairs, table seats and even a few bistro tables. They are scattered around in many different sections of the library. Some of the books are literally jam packed onto the shelves. This might be due to the fact that this is a smaller location. A cool feature that I like and took advantage of is the small snack bar/ convenience store that sells potato chips, candy bars, t- shirts, notebooks and other items. That's pretty neat.

Being right in the center of downtown makes it convenient for anybody who rides the bus plus it's surrounded by soo many food places. So if you need a study break to grab sum food right fast you good. Plus it's by the movie theater. Bathroom be stankin tho ngl. But that's the only thing wrong wit the spot at least in my opinion

I still like this location, but the bathroom key card checkout system has a significant drawback:…read moreit is possible for someone to walk off with the card. This happened the other night when I was in the library with my laptop, and the librarian said they would have to request a new key the next day. I ended up having to hold it until I walked back to the bus station! Not good, Springfield/Greene County Library. Not good at all.

Personally, I'm a very big fan of books and also of food so this library location is wonderful…read more It's in the same shopping strip as Panera and just on the other side is a McAlister's Deli and then a Braum's on the other side. The library is spacious and well designed with a dedicated teen area and there's also a children's library and a separate reading "room". For those who need them, there are plenty of computers throughout. I love the library and so far, have been to libraries in 6 different states and I'm so impressed and pleased with Springfield's library designs, so much valuable space for public use and all of the programs offered.

The children's area was super neat, they have a train over the top going around and super spacious. The people around seemed to appreciate and respect the library.

The staff is very helpful and very friendly.

Thank You, Midtown Carnegie Library.
