This library is one of our weekly stops throughout summer. We we partake in their summer camp series for kids and live stocking up on new reads.

Five stars to all the staff at our sweet little library but a special thank you to Ms Sarah and Sue…read morewho are so patient with my kids always asking for 101 books each visit. Sue has been a staple since my first son was going to weekly Storytime's and Ms Karen is always smiling and so positive at the book mobile. Great selection of kids books and they usually have a craft to do. Would love to see a few more kids activities that could pull in the community more but I believe that Covid had caused that to slow.

That remind her of Marybeth, the teacher who does story time at the library, and she said "I miss her" "I want to see her" I tried to explain to her that I was talking about our activity for next day, I remind her about the central library but nope She wanted to go to the Howson library in that moment and see Marybeth lol "I lover her" she said and started crying... I can normally snap her out of anything, I got toys out, played music, I was being really silly but the two year old in her wanted Marybeth.... Well, what do you do?! Check if the library is open, drive there and pray MB is there or wait another 20 minute and see if your kid forgets about it?! I choose my battles and I got my car keys and we drove there in our sleepers looking like a hot mess lol Marybeth was there, I told her about Brynn's moment and She was so sweet to her!! We picked few books and Brynn was so happy!!! On the way home she said "I cried for MB" "I love her" Today, a week later she remember the story and said "remember I cried" "I miss her" I knew what she meant lol She asked me to sing the little red wagon and you are my sunshine like Marybeth. Well, with all that said I want to say thank you so much Marybeth for your extraordinary work, your amazing energy and your enthusiasm when sharing your songs with the kids, and reading those awesome books everywhere week! You are in Brynn's heart and that is priceless! We are so grateful for YOU. I been working with kids for 20 years and I know when a caregiver works with passion and joy! You are a very important person in our community and we love you!!

Martin (my bf) and I visited this particular location to get our passports. The whole process was…read moresmooth sailing. We booked the appointment online and they had so many slots open. The process was so easy and stress free. It was a one shop stop. Austin public library (locations depend) does passport photos, that saved us a trip. The check in process when we got there was so quick. Everything just so happened so fast and quick. The employee who helped us send in our documents was so nice and helpful and deserves recognition for his customer service that he provided and with how quick and easy he made it for us. Also, the employee who took our photos for the passport made it quick and easy as well. I highly recommend everyone to come here if you're in need of a passport cause the employees and process itself makes my travel life so much better. Highly recommend. 10/10.

Not only did we enjoy the performances, they had a lot of informational booths in the hallway outside. Everyone was so welcoming and sweet. The bathrooms were clean (always a plus). We loved the outside scenery and decor. The staff were very helpful as well. We will have to make a return visit to see about getting library cards or checking out more events in the future. Definitely a hidden gem in ATX.

I don't come looking for a quiet space but it's full of resourceful books! I avoid "after-school times" bc it can get a bit hectic... but I also avoid the gym during after-work times.

The library system didn't have the book I wanted, so they looked outside their libraries and found it at a university in Houston! It is on loan with them and given to me! Holy cow!

A very kind employee explained the process and instructed me to bring the book back to the counter when I am done, not to place it in the book drop. This was the perfect branch to receive this book!

But there is an impressive cookbook collection for those interested.

They were also quick about helping me get charges removed from my account that I believed were a mistake. I haven't spent a lot of time browsing since I usually just reserve books online, but they seem to have a pretty decent selection for a branch location. The only reason I don't give it five stars is that it's located right next to a school and it can be kind of annoying dealing with the kids when they get out of class and loiter on the premises.
