I had seen an ad for the upcoming movie and really wanted to read the book. Richmond Public Library didn't seem to offer it, but Henrico Public Library had three copies. I feel like Henrico always has more book options which is nice. Instead of placing it on hold and waiting for it to come to a closer library, I decided to go check out a new to me library. I loved how modern this library was. There was a HUGE amount of parking available. They had women and men restrooms near the front. I liked that at the front they had a new release shelf. They had some other shelves upstairs, but it seems like a majority of the books can be found downstairs. There is a lot of seating as well as a computer lab downstairs. They even had private rooms for rent. It took me a bit to find the graphic novel section. A sweet librarian asked me if they could help and thankfully they pointed me to the correct section to find my book. I loved that at the graphic novel section they had a free bookmark with notable adult graphic novel artists names. The checkout system is DIY. You scan your card and leave the book on this scale that automatically knows what book it is. Another librarian explained this process to me. I had a great time at this library and would recommend it for a new working space (they had good wifi) or finding great books.

As a University of Richmond alumn, I have many fond memories of Boatwright Library. It was usually…read moreopen 24 hours a day back when I was a student, and I watched many sunrises and sunsets from the second floor silent section. There are two basement levels with reference sections, the ground floor, and the second floor up the dramatic lobby staircase. In the entrance to the building is a small coffee shop called 8:15, originally named after the earliest classes offered at UR (although now classes begin at 7:30). It has Starbucks coffee products, pastries, and some other small snack items for sale. They accept cash, card, and UR dining dollars. Food and drink is allowed in most parts of the library, and you'll often see students order pizza or Jimmy Johns to the ground floor. The basement levels are typically quiet or silent study only, as are parts of the second floor. This is taken very seriously, so you should not even whisper or open a packet of chips in silent areas. If you need to collaborate with a group or use A/V equipment, study rooms are available to be scheduled at the front desk. While it is accessible to the public during the day, please do be respectful of the fact that this is one of the primary places for students to study on campus, and that they should be prioritized. It was incredibly frustrating when I wasn't able to find a seat or the library was loud and messy because of non-students using it as a hangout spot.

This is a relaxing and quiet place to get work done and feel inspired. They have a fantastic selection of books and it's organized so thoughtfully. Whenever I come here, I adore exploring the front "hot and new" books section. It has to be my all-time favorite front section of any library I've been too. This place is huge. There is tons of seating to read or get work done at. There are also a lot of private rooms you are able to rent upstairs for meetings. It's very modern here. A few of my favorite things here right now are: - The try a new hobby bookshelf with books on crochet, knitting, gardening and more - The pie bookshelf filled with cook books on pie making - The book club bags with multiple copies of a book for your book club You gotta come here, it's really great!

There was free Wi-Fi available which worked quite well, and best of all the staff could not have been friendlier. For those more interested in using the facility as, well, a library, no problem there either. They had lots of those... Whatcha-ma-call'ems. You know - those stacks of bound papers with writing all in them. Books? Yes, that's it! Books. I also noticed a large section that appeared to be geared specifically toward those folks out there with little ones. Clean, nice, accessible, friendly, well run. Good spot!

They have a good amount of bike lock space and a little parking lot behind it. The librarians who work here are very kind and helpful. It's a smaller library, but has most of the good stuff (at least in regards to what I'm trying to read). Like all libraries, you can put a book on hold or have a book sent to this library if it's not at this location. They have computers for their online catalog. They also have quite a few computers you can log into for personal use. This library is a great spot to get some work done or (surprise) read a book. I love all the natural lighting that spills into this space. ***PRICE*** It's free! It's a library. If no one has a hold on the book you're borrowing it'll automatically renew. ***BATHROOM*** There are single all gendered stalls you can use that are clean. ***CONCLUSION*** I love this library for its librarians, its space, and its books!
