We booked a room for 2 hours and then another friend booked the room for the next 2 hours. The librarian came in - Marry, and told us she CANCELED our second reservation, once we checked in for the second reservation, and told us we had to leave, because another group had the room... We were not being disruptive and were simply studying when she interrupted and was so RUDE. She really must have been having a bad day and took it out on three 20-something-year-olds. Extremely rude and unkind. Do not go here waste of your time and not even a great space! AND you have to bring your own HDMI cord... weirdd

The Colts neck library is located on the campus of the town hall and the police station in rather a…read more bucolic area. Very pretty setting, something out of Better Homes & Gardens. The physical plant itself is rather small and could easily be expanded with all the real estate there. The staff seemed friendly. And instructed me to go downstairs because I was attending a concert/presentation of musical composers. The presentation was excellent but the library seriously lacked modern technology. And as a result the presenter told us of the mechanical problems in his introduction. But it all worked out for the best possible means. In a town as affluent as Colts neck, one would think that a public facility would be on top of their "game". Not the case.

The librarians seem to have a sincere passion for books and a wide knowledge of what appeals to each visitor. Every time I wander in without ideas on what I need, arise librarian greets me, listens to my comments and sagely offers a book or two that I end up adoring. These librarians know books and almost do a "mentalist" thing on you, reading your mind, revealing your preferences and current desires and directing you accordingly. Even the non-reader will be delighted by their suggestions and return for more!

So the next day we decided to check it out. This place blew us away. The modern architecture is stunning with different levels, and there is even a fireplace. There is also a room dedicated just for magazines with the most current issues. If you like movies the library has an impressive selection of DVDs. Even their restrooms have fancy Dyson faucets. There is a cafe as well. One of the upper levels offers a nice outdoor patio balcony. Good to see the tax dollars going back to the community. No matter how old you are, go get yourself a library card. There is a parking garage nearby. It's a great way to spend the day reading a book or two.

English literature they have stopped accepting books donation, and foreign language literatures, they would have to check, but most likely they won't accept. Be sure the foreign language books are educational and in mint condition. Inside the library was smaller than I thought, but it was cozy in each floor. Although the library is overall very quiet, I couldn't find an empty study room, during Summer vacation, and in the morning! Glad to see our younger generations still read and study!! Not only no study room available, but all seatings are occupied. Mix feeling ... I wonder how's it like during weekends. I decided to walk around before I left the library. There was an undone puzzles spread on the public table. Very cute and welcoming. The staffs are friendly and attentive.

Think prison matrons without the mirth. Go shush yourself, Mrs. Harris. Maybe David Lee Roth found them hot (or was he hot for teacher, I can't remember) but Diamond Dave was never in Nanuet, New York during the Ford administration when these stoic sentinels were more like Edsels. Trust me, in the days before Al Gore invented the internet, the library was a place you wanted to spend as little time in as humanly possible so you could rush back to the mall and do absolutely nothing. Fast forward to Plainsboro, New Jersey present day and the Plainsboro Public Library is a place built for comfort and social gathering. In fact, given the Stepford-like visage of the surrounding village, it seems to be the only place in this silent burb where life occurs in real time. Bright, spacious and full of hang out seating, plugs for your laptop and multiple rows of desktop PC's, the PPL is a fantastic place to hunker down on a project, job search, college hunt or just catch up on an endless assortment of newspapers and periodicals. Personally, I enjoy their wide-ranging selection of DVDs and CDs. And the staff (now Library Scientists) couldn't be nicer or more helpful. The Plainsboro Public Library - no card catalog, mold spores or fussbudget crones to make your visit a living hell. A very casual five stars. Hanging out in Stepford, New Jersey never felt so good. I haven't tried to check-out Dr. Suess lately but hopefully that little cancel culture sideshow is not going to be fodder for my next review. Bye for now, I think I see Katherine Ross and Tina Louise over by the printers.
