So they keep their 5 stars. The parking is great, the staff is SUPER nice, and there are plenty of goodies in there for me to utilize while I'm staying out in the country. There are some computers in there to use, and the material info is available online (and you can renew there as well). Not much to complain about there - adore this little place!

As a graduate from Chelsea High School and now a taxpayer living in the City of Chelsea I'm…read moredisappointed (to say the least) that you have decided against banning this pedophile from OUR library. Instead, you choose to spend your resources on making residents go to all ends proving that they are indeed residents of the City of Chelsea. Case in point, I had a sticker with a change of address fall off of my driver's license and I had to go to the Secretary of State to get a new one so I could continue checking out materials. If you can put this much time and effort into making sure I'm a resident then I'm pretty sure you can make sure this guy never steps foot in OUR library!

The children's section on the bottom floor is great! They have a play area, eight computers, a plenty of places to relax and read. The selection is great as well! As a teacher, I'm always on the hunt for new children's books and have been pleasantly surprised each time I visit. I've always found something that was on my list! I love when a library stays current! Keep up the awesome work!!!

They also have miscellaneous cool stuff for checkout like board games, music instruments, even art. The website is easy to use in terms of reserving books. If you reserve a book and clear the wait list, they will pull it for you. I wish they had a method of deferring (eg if you clear the wait list when you're on vacation) so that you don't have to go back through the queue, but understand how this could be complicated. Their "shelf service" is amazing. You put in your reading preferences and they select a handful of books that fit. It's wild that this is something you can access for free. It's a nice physical space with plenty of bathrooms, reading areas, wifi, etc. I love this library and coming here makes me so grateful to live in AA

This library is located on the shores of the River Raisin. During the early spring, you can see the sugaring taking place at the nearby Navarre-Anderson Trading Post. The site is a beautiful place to observe the changing seasons in Monroe. The accommodations are excellent and there is a separate children's library. There are many cultural events that take place here, such as jazz concerts, movies, etc. I'm glad I found this branch of the library!

I tagged along because even though I don't have an AADL card, I love libraries. I browsed the used book section up at the front, which had a lot of great titles and many looked brand new. Most of the books were $2 with some that I saw for $5. I ended up buying two books that caught my eye - luckily they take Apple Pay because I left my wallet in my backpack at their house. This was such a nice experience and I would love to come back to this branch in the future.

This library is also very child-friendly. There are small computer monitors on desks adjusted to children's heights they can use to play games on. I really appreciate how pro-public health AADL libraries are - the staff mask and there are free masks and tests provided for those who need them. There is ample parking next to the library. I also notice this library is next to a couple walkable neighborhoods - jealous of the residents here who can easily walk to and visit the library! There are open glass study rooms available at this location. If there is anything you want to borrow here that's normally located at another library branch, you can request a transfer of your desired item to this location and pick it up when it's ready to go. So convenient. Love this place, will definitely be back!
