My hometown library! So many fond memories of Saturday morning book readings, field trips, and…read moreafter-school programs. Though I no longer live in Jackson, I am a frequent visitor, and today the Jackson Public Library saved me with their free wifi! I was pleasantly surprised to find a fully open and free broadband network that would let me finish my work without the frustration of dialup or satellite internet. For the area, the library is well stocked and can usually order books if you ask. It has a very pleasant feel, though a bit on the warm side for me. The help desk was true it its name when I had asked about free wifi. Not only can you borrow books, but you're also able to send faxes, browse an amazing selection of local history, newspapers, and other periodicals, and hop one of the many computers available. If you find yourself in Jackson looking for a free network or wanting to bone up on your southern Ohio history, come to the public library! It's a great place to work for a few hours!

I'm definitely spoiled by the Columbus libraries, but as far as small town libraries go, Jackson…read morehas a gem. Free wi-fi, storytime for the kids, and well-stocked shelves. I spent a lot of time here after school growing up, and having visited again recently, not much had changed. They keep it immaculately clean, and the staff is friendly and helpful. Not much more you could ask from a library!

The staff is very friendly and takes the time to get to know each customer. They are very helpful with book reservations as well as suggestions. They help you with book transfers as well. I highly recommend this Library for any Cabell County patron and I can't wait until they are able to build the new Library. Finally, they have a number of programs for kids and this location isn't too far from a couple of the schools.

I'm surprised it hasn't been reviewed, and that I didn't review it. They have remodeled a couple times over the years, and it is incredible now. Lots of stacks, in an old building with interesting rooms and niches. They also have a pretty good selection of nice reading rooms. It's a beautiful building in an historic town. Support your library; it supports the community.

My kid always makes new friends over there. Noelle Robinson isn't too old to where the kids don't like her, a common theme in that age range. She's not too strict either, and it is really important for kids 12-18 to have established boundaries for the zone but not feel restricted. They have plenty of gaming equipment, free snacks and drinks, comfortable seating, the teens have a blast. N.R deserves a raise and she's a kind person who is a good influence to our growing generations.

It looks like a classic boring 1900's library from the outside but inside are smooth lines, workstations, subtle lighting and lots of up-to-date bookshelves. Great seating and a friendly library who booked a private study room for me (I learned that it can be done through the website) where I did a couple Zoom calls without disturbing my fellow library patrons. Lots of books, fast wifi and yes, they even have a TOOL library where you cab borrow shovels and rakes and stuff. What? Yes! [Review 19620 overall - 94 in West Virginia - 591 of 2023.]
