    I recently left the book The Help behind in Fortuna,CA…read more The book is an engaging book in which I could not put down ( yes I am aware of the controversies in the books I read such as trying a new restaurant in order to review it) :-) I was determined to read an online version of the book and thankfully I ran into their virtual county library website. Here it is: https://northnet.overdrive.com As a teacher I need to share the knowledge with any folks from Humboldt or anyone who has obtained a public library card in Northern California counties. Overall, I have not gone in person post COVID to check out any books or media so this review is based on post COVID times especially in our digital age.

    We've return to this library thanks to Shoshanna in the Children's library. We hear so many good…read morethings about her in our community. She is a light of sunshine, kind, creative, supportive, and very helpful. Her optimism and positivity is priceless. Our County of Humboldt is lucky to have her. The children's area has opened ended play and nature inspired stations friendly for young children. We love the new playground however I wish there was a way to close the gate because it is open to the street and people drive fast through that curved corner. In addition, there are sometimes men sitting at the table but they don't have any children with them. Sometimes this makes me feel uncomfortable as a mom with young kiddos.

    Awesome library! Not the biggest for a university library, but huge considering the campus' small…read moresize. I would check out book after book with no problems at all--lots of books at a time even. I learned more from reading these academic library books than from my classes. Great selection of poetry, too. I mean GREAT. And to top it off, there's coffee! I miss having access to so many wonderful books.

    What I Love about this library is that you can reap the benefits of various resources especially if…read moreyou're at HSU student or alumni. For instance you can rent out books, articles or scientific periodicals from other California state universities and I was told also order from international Universities. The benefit of being a grad school is that you can have books up to one year until return date is due and rent out their cam corders and camera for an extended period of time . I started off at this school in 2017 and I definitely have seen many renovations through the years including the café, study rooms, tall shelving and interactive group desks, where group members can meet an use a TV to connect to class projects or the Internet. Till this day the library still has a glass case where they display a wide assortment of clubs, issues and events on campus, with nice added touches of regalia/memorabilia! I highly appreciate the fact that this library recycles electronics this can be found at the exit of the library in the main entrance.

    My dad's been a professor here for over a decade, and I've been lucky enough to visit HSU every 2-3…read moreyears in that time. The campus is unlike any I've ever seen in that it's basically part of the incredibly Humboldt wilderness. There are redwoods on campus with a forest literally next door, and HSU truly embraces the wild side of things. The facilities are nice for the most part, with several new buildings finished in the past year. Being on the HSU campus is a joy, especially if you enjoy nature.

    If you care about your mental health, please don't go here. This is a school where a large number…read moreof the students come from other counties. The students specifically pick Humboldt because they had abusive childhoods or trauma they wanted to get super far away from while still having in-state tuition. This leads to highly traumatized young adults flocking to one area and being on their own for the first time. The bullying, harassment, several mental instability, etc. of some of these students is shocking and almost everyone I know has an extreme story of harassment due to this. PLEASE pick anywhere else. Yes, you may have a wonderful time and get lucky - but this school is far more likely that others to leave you with severe trauma, especially when paired with how highly isolated it is from outside support and resources.
