I don't really like the noise policy which enables one loud person to largely ruin the quiet environment for all others trying to read or study. Workers act irritated and annoyed to answer simple client requests. There's a large parking lot. The budget draws 2 million a year from taxpayers and it seems the high cost derives from excessive fees for digital subscriptions which large Silicon Valley corporations charge local libraries. It's shameful. Hours are limited.

"Holy Chestnut Novel Batman!"…read more This is a fairly small yet simple library. I'm a bookworm & nerd so I love visiting libraries. This library is a single floor library with a decent amount of resources available to visitors. Upon entering you'll find the children's section on the right side of the library with various books and research materials in the center spanning to the left side of library as you enter. Staff is super helpful and really nice. I didn't spend too much time here during my visit but I never find any library bad unless you've visited a library in NYC where it can be noisy! It's nice to visit libraries in the suburbs that still believe in a quiet place to read or study.

I completed an engineering degree here in the early 2000s and today I am a rocket scientist.

Don't underestimate community college, I'd do it all over again.

This is one of the best institutions in Middletown, but the professionalism is sometimes lacking…read morecompared to most of the other RCLS libraries I patronize. I hate how quickly parking goes sometimes, but there is always a spot open within a block or two, so that's not a big deal in regards to distance. I only hate it because I've been followed walking to the library before even when I've parked in the closest spots to the door in the parking lot. I've been solicited and bothered by people hanging out in the parking lots a few times through the years. Although I don't think I've ever visited and not seen security, the security is never outside but the problems are never inside. My browsing is admittedly a little unconventional. I'll plop on the ground in a corner or dead aisle and skim a book while debating whether it's worth my time to check out. It is weird but has never been an issue at other libraries yet seems to get security's attention at Middletown. While no member of security has said anything, I don't like it because how am I getting all your attention while the people circling the parking lot asking everyone who stops for money going unnoticed. I prefer patronizing the other RCLS locations, although this library is so close that I can walk there from home. The others give more library vibes. Aside from Port Jervis, no one side eyes me for anything. I can't remember how many times I've even fallen asleep while studying at other libraries, and at most someone might tease me about picking a more engaging book next time. In Goshen a reference librarian even encouragingly suggested a quieter spot in a corner to nap so I could wake up fresh for another round of studying. I have a feeling security would chase me out if I ever did that at Middletown. Some librarians might as well. But because I don't feel comfortable there, it's not my choice study spot anyhow. All that said, I did choose my home mostly because of the proximity to the library and because this library is a part of the RCLS system. I do think it's one of the most underrated gems of Middletown. it just doesn't always pass the vibe test, especially is used to the vibes at most of the other RCLS libraries.

While I understand that libraries want to maintain a safe space for their patrons, I've found it…read moreuncomfortable after visiting a handful of times, seeing all the cops around and then being questioned to show my ID as an adult based on my youthful appearance due to their suspicion that I was committing "truancy" during school hours. I showed my ID, but I'm also aware that NYS is not a stop and ID state without a reasonable suspicion of a crime, and truancy is not a crime an adult can commit, nor is appearance a "reasonable suspicion". Somehow I've found big city libraries more inviting and I'll continue to stick to other libraries.

I went in here a few times- one to read some books, and they had some great Arthur books by the children section. They do also host kids events at the library, as well as events like movies under the stars for the summer. Now, as I had a library card for this location, I really haven't used the library. Oh tho- my mom used the library for wifi when our power was out, and she said it was good, and quiet. Again though, I had a library card but didn't really use it. Think one time I was looking for Percy Jackson books and they didn't have it, and was a tween then. Anyways. Went here recently (note 3 stars) on Wednesday July 23rd 2025 because we were moving soon, and I had books and VHS tapes to donate. When I got there, they said no, we don't accept donations-- which i thought was kind of weird. After all, especially if they are vintage books that can still be applicable, donations should be considered. While the person who told me was pleasant and understanding- i just thought it was kind of weird.Again, having books, especially vintage ones may be of interest of have because then others would read them- like if their parents read this book, they might borrow the book for their kids. Now the books ending up going to a goodwill instead. At least i tried!
