As soon as your book is ready, they email and text you. You can go anytime the library is open to pick up the book. I think they hold the book for several days, In case you can't come get it when it's ready. You pull up to the curbside spot and call the library. They bring it out within minutes. It's so fast and easy!! If the book isn't available, they put you in line for the book and text you when it is your turn to check it out.

Enjoying Cormac McCarthy's new novel, The Passenger at the moment. It's a nice a nice branch of Lexington's system. Much louder than I expected it to be though. Don't they enforce the no talking rule anymore lol? While reading away, after about an hour, security paid me a visit and told me that I'm not alleged to site on the floor, where I was comfortably sitting. Saying I need to sit in a chair. When asked politely why they had a rule like that, I was vaguely informed it was fire and health department rules. Strange! Little did the security guard know I was already in the process of writing this review lol. Still a nice library, just with weird rules...

I have to confess though that, on this particular day, I was visiting in order to visit the rotunda which features the world's largest ceiling clock, a 5-story Foucault pendulum, and a frieze depicting the history of the horse on the Bluegrass. Beautiful! It was also clear that this is a "living library" -- with many patrons (including school students), signs for community events, and Ask a Librarian research assistance. There is a parking garage next door (the library validates for up to two hours) and some street parking.

Young library has 5 floors with about 5-6 cores (another word for the different sections they have inside the library). It's a massive library, and definitely has a Hogwarts feel to it. We were on the 5th floor, sat in a very open area. All the tables were occupied in our area but it wasn't overcrowded. We were able to talk and it didn't seem like we were disturbing anyone around else as we were catching up. It also wasn't cold inside the library, which was great because that means I never have to worry about bringing a blanket with me next time I work here again. The chairs, although wooden, were actually pretty comfortable and being surrounded with the right people, time flew back quickly. UK also has a great guest wifi that you can access easily by creating a quick account. You're allowed to connect up to 5 devices on that wifi account. No student ID needed to get in, so definitely looking forward to working here again.

I like how the floors get quieter as you work your way up. I really enjoy the variety of places to sit, and the whiteboards are provided. The staff and resources make it easy to settle in and stay productive for hours. The only thing keeping it from a five-star rating would be the noise. I usually rely on the 4th floor for quiet studying, but on one visit, a group was being loud and inconsiderate of the people around them, which made it hard to concentrate. I was able to push through, but they should have gone down to a lower level. Overall, it's a fantastic library and my go-to spot for studying. I'd definitely recommend it.
