Also, this building is getting a little dated and instead of smelling like books, it smells like an old lady's closet. Additionally, I take issue with the miniscule size of the windows. Is it night or day? You'll never be able to tell once inside. That being said, I like that is library has a completely different floor for the ankle biters. Put them underground where they belong! I'm glad I don't have to shush them, they can just be kids. The librarians are pretty friendly and helpful. They offer many computers for internet use. They have DVDs, music CDs, current magazines and even a State Parks Pass you can check out. I also like the self check out, makes getting out of there a snap. If you can, sign up for email reminders and online access, it will improve your library life ten-fold! I love supporting the library system and they in turn enjoy my late-fee revenue (albeit a very forgiving grace period at this location.) READ!

The Salt Lake City Public Library is one of those buildings that makes you stop and look up the…read moremoment you walk inside. The modern design with all the glass and sky high ceilings is genuinely spectacular and makes the space feel open and energizing instead of quiet and stuffy. When I visited on a Saturday morning it was busy, which was actually really nice to see, with people reading, studying, and casually surfing the internet. It felt alive in the best way. I also enjoyed wandering through the different floors where there were interesting exhibits and old books on display that made browsing feel more like exploring. Add in the great views of the valley from the windows and it's easy to imagine spending a lot of time here if I lived nearby.

Free parking is located on the lower level, you can validate your ticket inside the library. Very clean bathrooms, customer service was awesome. This is probably one the best library that Ive visited. I normally visit a library when I'm in larger cities, its alot of fun. The library has different floors, beautiful art work, live working bee area, stores, food and a sunny rooftop! I visited during the summer months, so the views- mountains were unbelievable. I highly recommend a visit to all!

This library is the nicest one I've been to in Davis County, I can't wait to sign up for my library card. Just need to find the time to get in and get one!

It's modern in that clean, beautiful way where you suddenly feel like a better person just by walking inside. I had time before the show started, so I wandered around pretending I had my life together, which honestly was very believable in that lighting. The staff was so sweet and genuinely helpful. Like not just "here's your answer" helpful, but "I love my job and also hope you have a great day" helpful. Rare and deeply appreciated. There are big windows everywhere, comfy seats, little pockets of calm where you can read, think, or journal about how magical the place is. I would come here even without a performance, just to sit and pretend I'm writing my novel or about to run into someone who's about to change my life. Also, yes, there's a rooftop patio, and yes, it's as dreamy as it sounds. If I lived closer, I'd be here all the time, probably with a lavender tea, trying not to romanticize everything but definitely failing.

No just stares me down between the bookshelf so rude so unprofessional and weird stalking me through bookshelves to get my child to be quiet. Not just that but it was very clear that as soon as my child calmed down, the worker left. It's stressful enough as a mom having your kid cry in public let alone someone staring you down while you're trying to calm your child is rude uncomfortable and NOT OKAY ! Never going back ever worse place on top of that smells like homeless piss and is so small

I love that we can download e-books and periodicals online too. I was very impressed with the South Jordan Branch Library. it is part of a much larger county organization and we can enjoy books and other entertainment from all community branches. Not only does it have extensive resources and events, but it is beautifully decorated as you can see by the pictures below. Staff are knowledgeable and courteous, and we enjoyed browsing through music, book, and even DVDs. An extensive calendar of events is also available for the community to take advantage of. If you haven't gotten your library cards, go to any local branch and they will have you ready in under five minutes. Just bring a form of ID and proof of residency, like a utility bill. They said even my four-year-old granddaughter can get a card with an adult. Stop by soon and let me know what you think!

Also lots of resources when you walk in the front such as City Weekly but also local non profits that helps out in different areas. A really wonderful library that is just the cutest most historic library I've seen yet! I wouldn't be surprised if it was the oldest library in Utah.
