Seems very efficient for smaller towns and cities to share costs like this. The gym was very reasonably priced. A tad bit too far from my neighborhood, but if you live in the area, it's worth looking into. I was looking for magazines for a vision board project so I asked the library if they had any they were throwing out. They just did some recycling, darn it, but took my name and number for the next time. Sure enough, they did call and give me a stack of magazines, so that was nice of them! Found about this place as I was getting my taxes done with DABC (Denver Asset Building Coalition).

It used to be the Columbia Heights Elementary School (1925-1978). Note, this library is closed on Fridays. We were immediately greeted by the friendly & helpful staff as we entered. One employee asked if he could be of assistance & he escorted us to the kids area. We were there to check out the toddler books & activities. He explained thoroughly the books as well as the toys & activities. We were the only people in that area & my granddaughter had a great time looking at the books & playing with the toys. We plan on returning on Tuesdays for the Toddler Time, "Let's Dance" session.

I have always found the staff knowledgeable, helpful, and very willing to seek out answers, no matter what my issue might be. There are enormous resources available here, far beyond the physical books and media on the shelves. These include community rooms and study rooms, a constant series of seminars and events, the ideaLAB maker space, the children's library, passes for many local cultural institutions, and the Community Technology Center (computer lab, classes, and workshops). There's a Healthy Snack program for children, extensive help to navigate social services for those in need, a number of book clubs, a book store, and a large collection of eBooks and audio books. There's a streaming resource for movies, music, and TV shows, a huge digital magazine collection, and digital access to The Denver Post and The New York Times. Research resources include BizBoost (research services to formulate data for a business plan), Digital Navigators (help with acquiring electronics and using technology), Nonprofit assistance, the Patent & Trademark Resource Center, and student consulting. There is a huge selection of research databases available online. The Western History collection is massive and comprehensive. There are extensive genealogy resources and a large collection of historic maps and geographic resources. The library also has an outstanding art collection. Some of the most important pieces are on loan to the Denver Art Museum, but the seventh floor hallways and the Vida Ellison Gallery on the seventh floor are used to display pieces from the collection between periodic, formal art exhibits. The fifth floor of the building is another highlight. There's a large lobby which is used for mostly historical exhibits. The Western History collection is on this floor. The Gates Reading Room sits within Symbol of the West, a sculpture of massive wooden beams designed by Michael Graves. The area usually features exhibits of photographs and artifacts from the Western History collection and is a spectacular study space. The library started in a wing of the original Denver High School building at 19th and Stout Streets. It notably included the first children's library in the U.S. The facility moved to the iconic Carnegie building (now the McNichols Civic Center Building) in Civic Center Park in 1910 and remained there until the new Burnham Hoyt building at 14th and Broadway was completed in 1956. Noted architect Michael Graves designed the current building which opened in 1995. It incorporates the 1956 structure quite seamlessly. I greatly admire the new building. I think it is one of Graves' best projects. Internally, it is very functional while the exterior is stunning.

The Carnegie Corporation funded the construction of nine branches of the Denver Public Library. All of them are still standing, although only five retain their original function. This is one of them and it is an amazing building. It was constructed in 1912 in the Renaissance Revival style and is named for the first president of the Denver Chamber of Commerce. It was added to the National Register for Historic Places in 1986 and listed as a Denver historic landmark in 1989. The exterior of the building features extensive terracotta detailing, particularly around the dramatic clerestory windows; however, the most gorgeous feature is the striking, carved open truss ceiling in the main reading room. This looks like something out of Hampton Court (Henry VIII) and is just jaw-dropping. An absolutely wonderful space to lose yourself in a good book. The library sits in the northeast corner of Highland Park. There's a very tiny, cramped parking lot, but there's also lots of street parking surrounding the park.

Toddler story time is Thursdays downstairs from 10:30-11:00 and infants are on Tuesdays during the same time period. When the weather is nice it's directly out front taking advantage of the nearby park. Some parking out back and a lot of street and neighborhood parking directly in front. Denver did recently change some of the parking signs so be sure to peep before parking incorrectly. Didn't see a notice of the change. Pretty sneaky Denver. The staff here is super friendly.
