Update time! As if…read moreI didn't love the library before, I love it even more now! If you're a parent and looking for FREE activities for your little, hit up the PGCML website! They have story time several times during the week at various branches and they are what, FREE! My little and I hit up the story time today. They read about three books, had a dance break and visuals! I am super pleased that I found this, as we will definitely coming back! The kids had a wonderful time listening to stories, marching and dancing, so much so that my little came home and was ready for a nap! I love this library, it is so welcoming, the staff are so friendly, and they have activities for smaller children and teens. You can't go wrong coming here!

The noise level at this location is ridiculous. People talk at will, answer phones calls, hold…read moreconversations while others are trying to study. Libraries are supposed to be quiet for studies. And the sad part is the librarians sit, watch and do nothing about it. This is sad. I have never seen a library like this. I brought it up to a friend and she said that's why she stopped coming to this branch.

I have been going to this library since I was Ram. Probably before that, honestly. I have never had…read morean issue with the staff, or the children that frequent the are. However, I feel that in comparison to some of the other libraries that they have a lesser selection of books, which is a bummer. But, you can just request books from other locales to be sent to you. This branch doesn't appear to become too crowded, so it seems to be a great space to utilize the free internet for research or whatever your needs are. Also, if I'm not mistaken, there are large room that are used for educational purposes, classes and the like.

I'm a bookworm and proud of it. (I hope that fact won't make my review impartial! Nor the fact that…read moremy 'heavy user' status has me known by name by the check-out staff...) I visit this library at least once a week, if not twice, and everyone on staff there is friendly and welcoming (props to Mr. S especially!) This place is tricked out. Wifi available, plenty of computers, reasonable hours (no Sundays since the '09 budget cuts, sadly), and good selection of magazines; what more could you want? The facility and its bathrooms are clean and well maintained. It has self-checkout, and a 'help yourself' shelf for your hold items. The only thing I might ask for is a bigger selection of titles at this branch. Often, newer books are only in the bigger branches. But hey, I guess that is what the iPhone catalog app for placing holds is for!

Tremendous improvement following the renovation. Bright and spacious setting encourage reading,…read morelearning and study time. There are sections for children, teens, and adults, so you can learn and study with others like you. There are still issues with some folks being loud, but they offer several study rooms where you can escape that. They don't seem to have as much variety in the adult non-fiction section as I'd like, but I appreciate the fact that you can request and reserve books from other branches. I've done that several times now - very quick and easy. Truthfully, this branch is much nicer and cleaner than most others in the county, and I anticipate it getting even better as they continue to bulk up their book selections.

This is an excellent library. It's very spacious, well-lit, and has many computer terminals to use…read more There is a huge amount of space dedicated to children's education and reading material. It also has displays that give some basic information about slavery in the United States and the struggle for abolition.

I stopped by the Hyattsville Branch Library to get a new library card. I love the reciprocity with…read moreMaryland and DC locations (some Virginia locations, too). There's a small parking garage underneath the library. (The garage closes when the library closes... so no dawdling!) The front desk staff was friendly and helped me get my new library card set-up. She helped to reset my account, gave me a bookmark which also noted the library hours, walked me through the different resources available, and was willing to answer any questions. You can checkout up to 75 items! The library space was new and modern. There was a community event being hosted in the meeting room when I visited. There are so many services and events that the public library offers beyond books - I dare you to check it out. As everyone's favorite aardvark once said, "Having fun isn't hard, when you've got a library card!"

Another beautiful library! The libraries in PG have such a chic and modern look, but they still…read moremanage to feel cozy. The second library I've seen with a fireplace and high ceilings. I love the integration of the Spanish language in all the titles of the different areas, and that there is a dedicated space to eat and hang out where you can talk louder etc. The building gets a lot of natural light and there is plenty of parking. You can't go wrong visiting this library. Def proud to be a PG county library card holder!

My local library! Not sure why it took me 3 years to get my library card, but I made it hahaha…read more This branch is located in Old Greenbelt near the theater. From the outside, the building looks a bit dated... but that's the vibe of the entire community, haha. The inside is nice! It has everything you'd want -- meeting rooms, silence that you could hear a pen drop, COVID-19 take-home test kits, chairs for reading, and of course books on books on books! I haven't checked one out yet (I have my own backlog as is), but they have quite the selection! It's convenient only being 5 minutes from my house. I can't really compare it to others, but it has everything I need!

I entered the library with purpose. I came all the way, to the northern nether regions of the…read moreBeltway for a lecture on Frederick Douglass and I got there early. Since I had time to spare, I thought I would update my library account and look for a book. Dude at the front desk was nice. He updating my account easily so that was quick and cool. I walked around, kicking myself that I didn't bring my phone charger and lo! There was free charging station! Clutch!!!! Two Stars! Next, I thought I would look for the book I needed. An Eric Foner book. Not the most popular read but, lo and behold 'twas on the shelf!!!! Kill!! Three stars. So I continued to kill time reading about Historic Greenbelt, there was a display for that. I went to one of the self-checkout machines, I saw two, checked my book out and went to find the restroom. Four Stars with the self-checkout. On my way to the restroom I saw this box for donating eye glasses. I loved that for obvious reasons so add another star to my review and that's 5 but, with the men's restroom out of order on election day 2018, I deducted a star. So, I had a good time at the Greenbelt Library. I got more done than I needed and more than I expected. Good stuff, good stuff.

If you're in DC for just a few days, I'd add Library of Congress to the list. Note that you do need…read moretickets to enter, but the best part about the tickets is that it's free. The architecture is beautiful. There was a lot of thought that went into the structure and design of the building. I took the advice of one of the people and went into the viewing room first, but I wish I had gotten a later "timed entry" to see the library itself so that I could've taken the time to learn what I was looking at. If I were to do it again, I'd follow the order online of how to view the Library of Congress, and I'd time the viewing of the library itself to be the last part. Fun fact: you also can get a library card for the Library of Congress! As long as if you fill out the form and have an ID, you can get a library card the same day and it'll last for 2 years.

Great library and community resource!…read more Just what this neighborhood needs. I am a bookworm and love myself some libraries....not to mention, an avid reader and enjoy the nostalgia of "physical" books! Not the digital stuff! I stopped by this library by happenstance because I had an overdue book in my trunk and the thought hit me to return it, when I noticed this location while passing through this neighborhood --- trying to follow Google Maps short cut route home during rush hour. I must say I was impressed. Although, the library collection is limited, there are tons of free resources, internet and computer services available for both adults and kids living in this neighborhood that may not otherwise have access to these types of resources. The facilities is small and you will not be overwhelmed as you are exploring their collection. Also, this library is very quiet, well organized and is great for serving as a study or meeting place for groups given there is low foot traffic. The staff are very helpful as well. They were very accommodating to my super late book return and I was happy to know that there were no fees. It was my first time visiting this library and I enjoyed my time here. Time well spent to say the least...and who knew?!....I was able to kill some time in this library instead of being stuck in rush hour traffic. I co-sign and recommend this great community resource!
