I am a regular patron of the Alpharetta GA Branch library. It is greatly disturbing, and…read moredisappointing about the ongoing issues with the poor sanitation, public computers and printers. Over the past several visits, I have noticed that the multiple computers are either out of service or functioning intermittently, and the printers frequently experience errors or downtown, and the computer monitor, mouse and keyboards are covered with food, hair, dirt, crumbs, and other unclean things, which makes it difficult for patrons to complete essential tasks such as sanitation, printing important documents, conducting research or applying for jobs. Please keep the public library clean, and the maintained. This is very concerning.

The only downside for me was that, living in Fulton County, I wasn't eligible for a free library card--it would cost $40 annually. Still, for those within the system, this library offers a truly welcoming and inspiring place to read, study, or simply enjoy quiet time.

My first time at the Duluth Library and it is beautiful. Furthermore, I haven't been to the library…read morein about 20 years. LoL!! I took the 1hr 49min ride to the Duluth Library to experience the engagement with Raymond Santana. Detailed as, "Join Raymond Santana, one of the Central Park Five, as he discusses his young adult illustrated memoir, "Pushing Hope," which reflects on his wrongful conviction and tireless fight for his 2002 exoneration." I was excited to be in the room. The Duluth Library was the perfect place to have this event. The space was huge. The sound system was perfect and went throughout the entire room and the way the room was set up was ideal for the audience to focus and be able to feel the emotions expressed with each word. More than just a library, the Duluth Library was a night of memoir engagement for me and I am so happy that I went and was able to be present. Overall, the Duluth Library is humungus, super clean, and is easy to navigate when looking for books. The staff was super friendly and greeted me upon walking in with smiles on their faces. If you're in the area and ready to engage with all the Duluth Library has to offer. Make sure to stop in and check out all you've been missing.

I love this branch. It is modern and spacious. Very bright on the inside and you get a ton of…read morenatural lighting as well. The seating arrangement is well thought out. Plenty of outlets and USB ports. The staff is always super friendly, helpful and professional. Plenty of Mac Monitors to choose from. The selection of books are solid. Last, they have book club and author programs all the time that are well done and as someone mentioned you don't have to live in Gwinnett County to attend these programs. This is a great branch and I can't recommend it enough. During different times, the branch has kiosks that give out free COVID or flu testing kits. The people running this branch are really on top of it! Separate and apart from this review, this is also an Amazon Locker location.

The Librarians are VERY helpful, n are there to be of assistance in any way possible that you may need!

They even have a passport center, n off you want a place to be so quiet, they have a quiet room for you to go n study, read, reflect, just whatever. People can say what they will, but I personally LOVE this library n so does my family. Danielle Jones-Tetteh

This has to be the noisiest place ever. I thought this was a place to study in peace. Study groups…read moreand a place for your kids to come and play while you read is ridiculous. I thought Starbucks and places of that nature was what study groups are for NOT THE LIBRARY. AND NOT ONCE DID ANY OF THE LIBRARIANS ASK FOLKS TO QUIET DOWN. This place is the worst. IF you want to try and study DO NOT COME HERE. You will be disappointed!!! Now if you want to hang out and socialize then this is the place for you. YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE TO USE HEADPHONES TO CONCENTRATE. The people who work here are STRAIGHT POINTLESS!!

Update on "how it works" during covid. The library is still open for checkouts, but patrons can…read morenot go inside the library. This is easiest process to get materials: 1. Use online library website to reserve materials. 2. You will get an email when the materials are ready for pickup. 3. Library then has two phone call system. First call is to reserve a time for pickup of materials at the library. 4. After you arrive at the library at appointed time, second call is to tell the librarian you are outside. 5. Librarian will bring the materials outside and put them on white table with zero contact. 6. You pick up your materials and head home. Sort of convoluted, but good procedure to protect patrons and librarians. Please see my previous review for more information on the library.

WORST LIBRARY TO VISIT. I come to this library a lot due to how close it is to home, but I am…read morealways annoyed at the library's behavior. Every time I have visited, kids are always loud. Yes, kids are usually loud, but this is INSANELY loud. Not only that, there are kids running around the library playing a game of tag! It distracts people who are actually doing work! In both situations, the librarians do little to nothing about the kids yelling and running around. At the entrance, there is a posted sign saying "NO Cell Phone Use In Library." Yet, ADULTS are on there phones talking like they would at home! There are sometimes tutors that come to the library to do their tutoring, but they do it in an insane way. There are ALWAYS 3 STUDY ROOMS OPEN, yet not one time have they used a study room! If you are ever in the vicinity and need to go to a library, use a different library unless you don't mind anything.
