This library is awesome! They really have everything a reader would want…read more There is even a cafe inside where you can pick up some coffee and a snack while you read. I love that this cafe does seasonal drinks too to mix it up. One of my favorite features is on the second floor they have a balcony with rocking chairs that has a view of the mountains in the distance. There is a great kids section with tons of books and tons for them to play. We came once on Thursday morning for story time too. For those working remote they have a phone booth for making private calls on the second floor near elevators. They've even got self checkout and electric car chargers!

I've got to give a huge shoutout to Douglas Library. I just went to their Remember the Classics…read moreplay, and they did Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. Honestly, it was a night to remember. The Atmosphere: The whole vibe was so intimate and just really well done. It didn't feel like a big, empty theater, it felt personal, like you were right there in the story. The Acting: All the people playing the characters really brought the story to life. I have to mention the two who played Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy they seriously had me on the edge of my seat! The Cost & Parking: It was such a great experience and only cost $20. Plus, parking is right there at the library and it's free, so you don't have to worry about that. The Giveaway: They even had a giveaway for a copy of the Pride and Prejudice book. Everyone who went got a chance in the drawing, which was such a thoughtful touch. Overall: Everything was so well put together. I'm already looking forward to the next one they do. If you like the classics, you definitely need to check this out.

I found a nice spot to setup and complete my reports and other business matters. The first floor has the kids section and the second floor is for people that want to read, do homework, or set up their laptops for work. As some people collect visits to coffee shops and the like, I collect visits to libraries, and this place was a good stop.

They're considerate, conscientious and very knowledgeable. It Is an absolute joy to come here and you'll likely make friends with Jack who spent no less than 25 minutes helping kids pick a new movie to watch. I wish everyone loved their job as much as they do here.

The Denver Central Library is one of my favorites, both for the spectacular building and for the…read morehelpful staff and many resources found inside. 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.

A remodeled and expansive children's section. Years ago, it had the distinction of hosting the G8. The fossils in the floor throughout are a nice touch, and the staff is friendly. It almost loses a star, perhaps it should lose two for limited hours and choosing to close on a non-national holiday?

Inside they have a great kids section with lots of toys and even a play veterinary office! Lots of great books to choose from for all ages. Cool displays of books. I loved the staff picks!! It was a bunch of outdoorsy reads. On the second floor they have an outdoor patio, great for relaxing and reading. They've also got plenty of quiet rooms inside if you need that as well. The whole place is very clean. The staff here are great too if you have a question don't hesitate to ask! Plenty of parking.

Beautifully situated among open spaces, with a Frisbee golf area just across the parking lot, it also has walking/bike paths, a bike repair area (we LOVED that!) drive thru book return, and friendly, helpful staff. While, not the largest of libraries...for this "small town", what a library it has! You can put on hold any item and if this particular location does not have the item, they will get it for you. I read a lot, and use the online system for asking for books, and have been very happy with how that all works. I also appreciate how they will try to get inter library loans for me as well, and consider requests for purchase.
