This location is super close to my house and while I don't visit too often, I do visit enough to know that it is a great spot. There are books galore as well as so many other items for the public including seeds for planting, activities to complete and groups to join. While I listen to audiobooks mostly through hoopla or libby, they do also have some audiobooks on cd that are available when the ones online are not available so this is a win for me when I want to listen to a book and not have to wait. The librarians are so nice and super helpful and keep the space well organized and maintained.

I've had issues multiple times with books that I've returned, that they've failed to check in, and then I've found them put back on the shelf. I like the self check out system. Very handy and it leaves the librarians more readily available to help with other things. My kids like that they get to swipe their own books. Bonus fun! The children's/teen's staff is OUTSTANDING! My kids adore them. They are an invaluable resource during the school year. We are once again anticipating a great summer program with them.

There are usually a few people around, but it's not packed. Grounds are well maintained. Take a break and visit The Awakening!

One of the best!…read more This county library is really the best for babies to kids. The entire lower level is kid heaven! There are computers, magnets, slides, imaging toys, and so many books! You can spend the whole morning here with the little kids if you need to. They even offer baby play time for newborns up to 2 years old every First Thursday of the month at 10 am. This place is also 100% accessibility friendly and the librarians can help if needed.

Staff is available if you need help but if you like to do things on your own, you can totally do that. I check out the new releases, the semi new releases and the head upstairs to check out the magazines and cookbooks. Back downstairs to self checkout and I am on my way with my bag of fun reads!

We honestly love this library so much! It's conveniently located across from Grant's Farm and has…read moreample parking. They have an auto book return at the front (the kids love it), tons and tons of events for adults and children always going on. The staff is very nice and helpful. There are self checkout counters which are super easy to use. The kids area is where we spend the most time. There's a closed off area with big windows - they seem to rotate the big toy in the middle every few weeks (big blocks, doll house, giant connect 4, connect blocks, etc.). They have wonderful selection of books. There's also magnatiles, coloring area, etc. so fun! Great for all days! Also they're open until 8pm M-Th!

For a small town south of a large metropolitan area, there is not much more I could ask of this…read morelocation. (Note that the main branch is located in Arnold, a short drive north of this location.) They offer plenty of activities to bring in teens, adults, and families. The children section has a variety of series to get young readers interested in more reading. Good amount of sitting spots are present along with computers to search the catalog. Self check-out is available, and electronic "receipts" are optional. If the book you want is not there, the computer systems allows library card holders to access books from other libraries "on loan." (ID required to get a library card.) A clothing donation drop-off is located in the parking lot. Now for the more personal side of things. What brought a smile to my face was the cultural breath of the CDs along with modern ones like Taylor Swift. What made me feel at home were the ladies behind the counter who left me use their whole-punch (on more than one occasion) since I couldn't find mine at home. What impressed me is their collection of business/career related books which helped me study over the summers. I write these things, some of them seemingly obvious for a library's inventory, because it occasionally feels like this type of public space is not fully utilized by many communities. So, before buying a resource (for personal, school, or business), see if the local library has what you need. At the end of the day, libraries allows people to save some money and feel a part of a community.

This is the fanciest library I've ever been to! It almost feels like a building on a college…read morecampus! It's huge and beautiful. The kids area is closed off so you don't have to worry about keeping the kids super quiet. There are big play buildings, play food, fire truck, etc. they can play with. There's even a slide! There's so much to do in the kids area. They all just love it! The selection of board books feels smaller vs other SLCL libraries I've been to, but overall still great. Tons to do. They also just opened up a Goshen coffee cart, but not sure where exactly that is yet!

Cliff Cave is not my normal library, but I stopped in on Saturday morning on the way home from an…read moreappointment. It's located off Telegraph Road. It was pretty busy and lots of people parking in front on the entry way to do book returns, I guess. The library was bright and clean inside. I just went and looked for a book, found what I needed, and did self-checkout. On my way out I noticed a table with diapers, spices, and paw paws. I wasn't sure what it was about, but I went back to the desk and asked the lady at the counter. The spices and the paw paws were free for the taking. I am not really familiar with Garam Masala, and it was a little packet stapled to pages with history, information, and recipes. So cool! I had also never tasted a paw paw before so I took one of those, too. Their sign indicated they were best eaten same day so I tried it when I got home, it was really good. I will have to see if my regular library has something like this.

There are plenty of computers to book for one or more hours, cubicles to sit and work at, also quiet rooms if you need privacy. There are rooms one can book for meetings or gatherings, complete with whiteboards, projectors, and hdmi cords for viewing. There are other libraries that have multiple floors with kids sections and tech rooms. This location has everything on one floor.
