I never knew what I had until it was gone.
This might be the best small-town library in the Northwoods.
First, some history: I was born and raised in Three Lakes-- and even went to child care (Story Hour, anyone?!) at this Library. One could say I'm a little biased-- but after a recent visit this summer, I was reminded what a great local resource it is.
The Best:
1. Great free wi-fi for locals and visitors alike. They even moved the outside picnic table to the side of the library so that even when its closed, people can sit outside on their laptops and use the signal.
2. Computers for all! I love that you don't have to have a card here to utilize their services. A lot of locals still come to the library to use the computers here instead of taking on the burden of buying their own.
3. Great books! Yes, its a library-- but also a library that spans LOTS of different subjects-- the people running this library are great at getting material that covers controversial, conservative, liberal, political and different lifestyle subject matter. While some people think 'small town, small-town mentality' Three Lakes has always been a town that encourages free thought & speech-- and the library's catalog proves that.
4. The Semi-Annual Book Sale!! again, another opportunity that lets the Library shine! And seriously, THE BEST DEAL IN TOWN! Hardcover books for $1, paper backs for 25¢! So many books and audio books to pick from, there is no way you could walk in and not find something you love that you could just sit on the beach and enjoy.
The Worst?
I have nothing bad to say... this library is awesome! read more
