    Considering how frugal the community is around here, you would hope they would have a better…read moreselection of titles (problem is county-wide) for those that won't go out and buy a book. 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!

    I love to read if I'm not eating or yelping then I'm reading, sometimes I do all at the same time!…read moreThey have a wide variety to choose from, just depends on my mood as to what to get. The librarians are very nice and very helpful in locating what you are looking for, and if they don't have what you're looking for they have some great suggestions along the same type of author or type of books!

She was holding a stack of books with no apparent relationship to each other. I kind of assumed there would be a sort of theme, like Autumn or Halloween. Nope. She proceeded to read "Blueberries for Sal" in the driest, most unenthusiastic voice imaginable. It was like the reading of a eulogy. Seriously. No wonder there were only two other stragglers there besides us. When she was finished she got out a pile of papers for a craft. I have no idea what this was supposed to be (see photo). But I DO know that it has been photocopied 750,000 times since it was first made and it was faint and pixelated like an Atari game. Really, how hard can it be to find a perky, animated, woman to read stories once a week? And throw a little craft in there? Besides being the Land of Children, Utah also holds the title Land of Perky, Energetic, Women Who Love Kids. You've got to get yourself together, Davis County Public Library.

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!
