The Hart Public Library is a nice modern facility on State Street in downtown Hart. The new…read morebuilding was built in 2003. We have a place on Old Michigan near Silver Lake and we come to Hart at least once every weekend in the summer. Recently when our internet was dead at the lake, we sat in the parking lot of the Hart Library with our laptops and rode the WiFi. The library a great resource in this small town, and if you ask me, a shining example of what government does best.

The White Lake Community Library is a new, clean and modern facility within the Muskegon County…read moreLibrary System. The building is designed in a charming arts and crafts style and also serves as a starting area for the wonderful biking and walking trail nearby. The library has Internet equipped computers, adult and children's sections and a sunroom area with magazines, newspapers and comfy chairs. Any time I have orders items, the librarians are willing to check the status of the items and are pretty helpful. The one improvement I would like to see would be a few really comfy chairs or couches. The ones they have are Stickley style and have wood arms, which makes it a little more difficult to curl up in with a good book.

You can rent things like records, video games, and they have even had tickets for local experiences or attractions. The library is such a necessary community space.

I'd planned to mail the items back when I got to my destination and was done with them. But the librarian suggested that I renew them such that I could keep them until I return.

Every summer I am doubly impressed by their children's summer reading program. They go the extra mile to involve the children in reading and make them readers for life. I just attended a children's program--Rainforest Animals and it was wonderful. The kids enjoyed it so much. It's an excellent way to keep them occupied during the summer so that they aren't getting bored. I know that most people already have their own assigned library but I believe that you can still come here, especially for the children's programs. If you are from out of town I highly recommend coming to this library. Best staff, best selection, best programs.

The employees and volunteers are very kind as well.

Prior to the shutdown, I visited and looked for several books for my son. I did notice that some of the kids books, at least in the "dinosaur" section were pretty worn and old, so I was already worried about germs. Post pandemic, they are open limited hours and don't allow browsing in most sections, but I have still popped in several times to pick up books. They "quarantine" books upon return to make sure they are safely ready for the next visitor. Reading is a great thing to do during the pandemic, so keep visiting the library!

I love libraries and visit them in other cities whenever I can! I've been to this branch of the…read moreHerrick District Library a few times now and I'm always impressed with the selection of items. The parking lot in front of the building is free. Walking in the main entrance, new books are in the front and there is an info desk nearby. The new book section of any library is my favorite, and they even separate out the new cookbooks, which is my other favorite section of any library. I had fun looking at lots of great new books and then wandered around a bit. There is a great section of DVDs, video games, and even board games that you can check out. They have an extensive seed library, and I saw kits to test your home energy levels. Lots of great resources at the library beyond just books. I liked the touch screen kiosk that you can use to browse the library catalog or search for events. There is ample seating and I found a cozy spot to sit and use their free wifi to get some work done. I was impressed with the library staff as I noticed them acknowledging all patrons and handling all situations and interactions with care. I am a strong supporter and lifelong user of libraries, and this is a good one.
