The owner is elderly and can be gruff but was nice to me today and answered my questions. I did ask about a bathroom because I missed the sign behind him saying no public restrooms. He advised to go to the bar next door and they'll let you use theirs without making a purchase. They have lots of new and old here and even some leather-bound books. I found the prices to be ok.

You may get disappointed when you find out your " rare and highly collectible " book isn't going to fetch the amount you dreamed of. Just because someone on eBay is asking a high price doesn't mean they will get it. If you think your book is so valuable sell it yourself on eBay, and good luck to you. Unfortunately I no longer live in Pennsylvania, but when passing through on interstate 80 I always take the opportunity to visit and grab a few books. Prices are fair, not free. I'm not sure where the cat went. I'm afraid to ask. He was definitely the prince of Main Street. When my father passed I called and spoke with Lisa, we set up an appointment date and time. I brought in boxes and boxes of books. She explained to me what books had a resale value and what books did not. I did not receive the amount that she was going to sell them for. I understand the need to cover rent, utilities, cat food, etc. Any books left over I could donate to various charities. Overall, a great store. Highly recommend.

My mother visits the library once a month and checks out any new audiobooks they might have. Thanks to her and a few other book-on-cd true believers, this small library has a sizable collection. I enjoy going with her to help her find books she might have missed, and to check out the community bulletin boards and Friends of the Library book sale shelves. This library is staffed largely with volunteers. They are generally happy to pause for a moment to help you find what you need, or to help you figure out any issues with your account. I've also asked them for help with local knowledge, and I'm guessing they are a wonderful resource for the families that vacation in the area. The library has a decent selection of children and adult books, as well as movies, audiobooks, and a bank of computers for Internet access. They also have an agreement with the Overdrive system, which gives you the ability to download ebooks directly to your digital device. The best part of a digital loan is that there are no late fees. When your loan period is over the book simply disappears. It's a great system! And all of this is housed in a modern, inviting building. Go visit your local library, and happy reading!

With a library card, they are free to borrow for one, two or three weeks, depending on the age and other people's requests for a particular book.

Our minds can expand to infinite dimensions. A day passed without learning something new can only be categorized as a day wasted. If I'm correct in believing the meaning of life and the key to our continued survival lies in our pursuit of knowledge, then the public library system remains the government's greatest gift to its citizens. This past winter the Albright Memorial Library hosted a special After Hours film series featuring a double bill of "The Trouble with Cali" and "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls." The movies were preceded by a number of Looney Tunes shorts, probably because the screening was in the basement of the children's library and that was the only other DVD available. "The Trouble with Cali" is a locally shot and publically financed film directed by Paul Sorvino and written by his daughter Amanda. Though completed years ago, "The Trouble with Cali" has never been officially released; after exchanging some strong words with our county officials who demanded some return on their investment, Paul Sorvino delivered a Blu-Ray copy of his film to the library. The Albright Memorial Library is now the only place in America where you can behold the spectacle that is "The Trouble with Cali." Because the movie still remains unreleased, the Blu-Ray disc can't be removed from the building; however, any card-carrying member of the Lackawanna County library system can request a private screening. I attended the After Hours film series with a good friend of mine; this was my second time watching the disasterpiece and his first. I had a blast with "The Trouble with Cali" and so did the rest of the audience, howling with laughter at the terrible acting, inane dialogue and overly melodramatic moments. "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls" is a true cult classic and straddles that fine line between genius and insanity. The screenplay was written by renowned film critic Roger Ebert and follows an all-female rock band as they discover the dark underbelly of the music industry. I owned the film for many years before my copy of the OOP DVD was lost in a move. "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls" is a true counterculture masterpiece and represents the apex of director Russ Meyer's lengthy filmography. It was a little odd watching two NC-17 films in a children's library but this was well after closing time and there weren't any kids in attendance. Still, the explicit onscreen sex and violence wasn't the oddest thing I witnessed in the children's library that night: on my way out I noticed a copy of Pete Towsend's autobiography, but I digress. A local newspaper reporter was also in attendance; he interviewed me because I'm probably one of the few people outside of the Sorvino-clan that actually sat through "The Trouble with Cali" twice. I felt like a true film historian. The free film screenings were presented along with complimentary beverages and snacks provided by "the friends of the library." Any friend of a library is a friend of mine.
