Been coming here since the early 1980's and whether I worked at a desk inside or borrowed a book, they always had what I needed - I have to admit that, even though at the time (as a kid) I despised the library. Came here intermittently now and then to look for a book here and there, but did notice this place did give itself a facelift internally more than once over the years. Looks much better in both the adult and the children section than it did when my young(ER) self inhabited here. Been coming here a lot more recently so my son can take books out for his daily reading assignments from school. They have most of what he has been looking for and despite the area being a children's section, it's decently maintained. The kid's area has computers for them to use and even a play area for the toddlers. It's not as quiet as it used to be when I was told to "shhhhhhh" long ago. Times have changed. They have music and dvds (for both child and parent) you can borrow if you choose to - kind of reminds me of the decade ago and beyond movie rental business. Of course the books for both are plentiful. Staff has been friendly and helpful. They do have plenty of parking, but at certain times - especially after the 5pm hour - they have gatherings or classes here and the parking lot becomes massively full. For the parents who like to blame the library for not having a book that the local school assigned to their child - blame the school since they assigned 1 book title for over 30 kids. That's happened before and I usually just save myself the trouble and buy the book. Last year I heard a parent yelling at someone in there for not having the book - not the library's fault if someone else got there first and checked it out. Overall a great library in the area. Certainly worth your time.

The library is a great resource for more than just books. They have story time for children, groups…read morefor crocheting, etc. and offer resources for seniors.

The librarians here are certainly doing their best to put the last nail in the coffin of a dying "business".

There used to be a charge, but not any more. The library itself has numerous quite spots in which you can sit in a comfortable chair with a nice view and quiet. It has recently built a large patio to the northern side--near the parking lot--which seems popular. It's a quintessential Bronxville institution, but seems to have a broader number of users than just Bronxville itself.

I was able to buy 6 or 7 hard cover children's books for $10. They accept Zelle if you don't have cash! The main library is on the second floor. They have a spacious children's section with some seating. Employees were quick to ask if I needed help. They have a monthly calendar of events with something scheduled just about every day. In order to get a library card, you have to be a resident of the specific town or city where the library is located. So in this case, you have to live in Eastchester to get a card here. However, once you have a library card for a Westchester library, you can use it in any library in the county.

Overall, my experience as a first year student at Columbia University was positive. With a great…read moresupport system of friends (many of them) who genuinely cared about me, I had an awesome time. And, Butler Library added to the positive experience in that first year of school. With tons to study for on continuous exams that had no end except when the semester ended, Butler library definitely came in handy. My typical routine after class and clinical rotation at a New York hospital was to pack my belongings from my room, change into comfy clothes, and get on the subway from 168th where I headed down to 116th intentionally for Butler library. Then, as I entered into the library and passed the security guard, I routinely went into the Cafe and loaded up on either a hot tea or coffee and plenty of fruit and food to prepare for an evening of studying. Thanks to those hours of studying on a day-to-day basis during the school week, I ACED my exams in 5 weeks of the Childbearing rotation. Had I stayed for another 5 weeks for the Medical-Surgical rotation, rather than taking a LOA, I might have performed just as well on the exams. I didn't get to stay, though, and I had an abrupt leave from the school. My digressions isn't what is most important. What is most important out of my story as a first year student at the beautiful Columbia University campus is that I discovered Butler library at some point in the school year and studying at the library was so instrumental in helping me do well on my school exams.
