What a beautiful library! This is one of the first places were explored when our family moved to the area last year, and we were so pleasantly surprised. The children & young adult sections include many of the newer releases that my kids want to read, and still has a nice selection of the more classic types of books.
Although the staff seem quite serious, they're extremely helpful and kind.
The movie, game & TV series on DVD selection is fun, too. Most are free with the exception of brand new releases and some games.
The entire back of the library has giant, vaulted windows that open to a beautiful forrest area. A stone fireplace adds beauty, warmth and charm, too. Chairs, couches & small desks line up all along those windows (and near the fireplace), so there are many comfy places to study, read and relax.
I've also been pleasantly surprised by the amount of Christian fiction they offer. Although I don't enjoy ALL the authors in that genre', I have happily found several that I do enjoy. And when I only have a few minutes to select a book, the stickers on the outside of the books make it easy to identify the genre' by simply glancing down a shelf.
The basement holds a used book store where we've found some great books & magazines to take on vacation (when we didn't want to risk taking a library book out of town). The prices are very reasonable. Hours are limited.
We're so grateful to have such a lovely place to study and find great resources. read more
