The building itself is pretty spacious, but you can tell some of the facilities are on the older side. The restroom was out of order during my visit, and overall the space felt a little dated. What really stood out, though, was the staff. I watched three different librarians patiently help someone with a computer issue for almost an hour, which honestly says a lot about how dedicated and kind they are. Even with the older interior, the service here makes this library a solid community spot.

The layout is peaceful, it's easy to find what you're looking for, and parking is a breeze. I appreciate that one can go online, at home or while at the library, and hold items that are checked out already and then be notified once they are ready to be picked up. It's great that King County offers this. I also love that I can go online and ask for a piece of work that is currently unavailable at all in the library system, and they will purchase it. Thank you for doing this and keeping learning alive for the community.

The area around the library has been under construction for a number of years. I agree with a…read moreprevious post that parking is tricky because there's limited space around the area. I'm not a fan of parking garages. The library itself is spacious and very open. The high ceilings and bright natural lights greet you as you walk through the door. There are plenty of rooms for studying/conferences. The librarian is so helpful. There isn't enough self checkout computers. Also, they close early on the weekdays (I think 5pm). Bummed that they don't have handy little paper/pencils to jot the codes (location) down near the lib catalogs. My old dementia brain can't remember anything. Pro tip: if you need a particular book, it's better just to put it on hold. Said that it was available but couldn't find it.

You are allowed so many pages to print for free weekly up to a certain amount in b&w or color. My printer died, and I don't have the funds right now to get a new one, so the library has been a saving grace for me. I also have had to use the scanner/fax option to get things in, and it's really a blessing, considering it is 50 cents a page to do this at FedEx Kinkos and it's free at the library.

I'm a huge fan of libraries! And what's especially cool about the King County Library System is…read morethat you can go to any branch within the KCLS system and check out and return items, even if it's not your primary branch. It's convenient to access the different KCLS branches if in the area, so when we were in Issaquah, I decided to check out what this library had to offer. Located on Front Street in Issaquah the branch is a good size for services and such. It's smaller than my primary branch, but is larger than other ones I've been to. There was a large meeting space right by the entrance, that you can reserve for free. Parking on Front Street is pretty easy to find; however, I did see a parking lot behind the library. There was also a Friend Shop where you can purchase used books for two bucks or so. And though it's not in a separate room, it's located in the entrance way of the building and has an honor system where you put your money in the cashbox. There seemed to be plenty of space for tables and chairs spread out throughout the library for lounging, in addition to a couple study rooms. Book selection was average, but saw that the DVD selection had a better assortment of TV shows than my Bellevue branch. It's nice to know that when in Issaquah I can check out this location for what it may offer and utilize the same services that I can at my primary branch.

This location offer such a amazing atmosphere for him. They have computers that are free to access for the little ones and adults. There was a safe place for him to use crayons and color pencils without making a mess. The location itself is not super big which can be one of the perk since you can see everything without feeling overwhelmed. Their variety of kids books are just so diverse and visible. The first thing you see when walking in is the kids books section which makes it feel super welcoming. The walls are painted super cute and kids friendly. The staff is all super nice and helpful on helping me checkout the books for my son. They didn't mind that my son was yelling slightly even though I felt bad about it; he went to the back counter and instead of telling me to get him out and making me uncomfortable they made him feel welcomed and spoke to him nicely. They asked about his day and offered him stickers. This to me was just such a amazing experience because having two little ones are not easy to care for. Overall, this location surpassed all my expectations with amazing librarians.

It's fucking ridiculous and they needed to refund me and they refused. They told me it's because it screwed up.

It's pretty stupid because the preview shows that my shit is going to print out normal and that's definitely not what happened so they should've paid me back but nope they refuse.

This is MY library. I live 3 miles from it. I used to visit this library a lot in person before…read morereading ebooks was possible. Now I try to do all my reading that way and visit less frequently. This was a poorly designed and thought out library, way too small for the community it supports, one with the highest income by zip code per person for any similar sized city in the US. The parking lot is too small, the spaces too tight and the parking garage is horrible. It is dark with huge concrete pillars everywhere and with tiny parking spaces. The concrete posts are scratched and chipped from drivers hitting them with their cars. I had to rescue a driver whose new Volvo was wedged tightly against one of the pillars and she couldn't figure out how to extract herself. The side of the car was completely smashed. The parking lot is frequently full, forcing us to park in an adjacent church parking lot and hike to the library. The entitled patrons who can't be bothered to park in the church parking lot park in the 5 minute short term book drop parking stalls forcing those of us who came solely to return books to hike back and forth from the church simply to drop off our books. I like that they have a copy machine with which your library card offers a few free black and white copies a week. A color copier too that offers fewer. As a note, the Snohomish Library system is WAY more generous with their free copying privileges. They also have a much larger selection of books, and more of them per title. The gas fireplace is nice. I've sat there a few times while reading magazines. The Redmond and Issaquah libraries are far superior to the Sammamish library. They are located too far away for me to use often, but I'm always sad when I visit them and am reminded that MY library is so diminished in comparison.
