Of course you can borrow books, but they also have a movie and cd lending program. Tons of computers with free internet access! The reason we love to come to this library is the children's area. There is so much fun for FREE at the library! The librarians are super helpful and there's even a security guard at the entrance which makes us feel safer. Bottom line, the library is not boring it's fun and cool and your kids will love it! Did I mention it's free?

The library had public wifi and password was listed on their website. I didn't need to ask staff or go hunting for the passkey so I don't know if it's posted in he library anywhere. Staff seemed very friendly and helpful. Didn't do a lot of exploration of the building but it had several floors each with numerous public use computers available.

My daughter loved the kids area and the scavenger hunt, we roamed the rest just to see it and it's truly stunning with the giant windows. The librarians were helpful with the scavenger hunt clues and we really enjoyed our visit here. I did see they have a dvd player for rent if anyone is looking... :)

~Note-- It's been some time since my last visit, I'm catching up on my reviews~…read more Since this library is a bit of a drive from Syracuse and looks somewhat small from the outside, I wasn't expecting much. Boy, was I surprised. First thing I saw was a room equipped with (fairly new) computers, printers, and projector screen. The whole building had a very sleek and modern feel. The children's room was massive and really colorful-- there are toys and lots of space to read/play. There was a massive magazine room with a large selection. Downstairs there were more computers, along with large fiction and nonfiction sections. The shelves were organized and clearly labeled, which made them super easy to navigate. One of the books I was looking for was listed as in stock but not on the shelf-- when I mentioned this to the librarian during checkout, she checked the returns for me, and found it. Really impressed with this library. Wish it wasn't so much of a drive for me, because honestly, I'd be here all the time. What a great resource.

The Manlius Library has all the stuff you'd expect at a library, and a tremendously nice staff. The attached cafe is nice and unpretentious, and staffed by volunteers.

This is a proper campus, and not modern at all, and the library is at the very heart of it. It's mainly for the college students, but perhaps because I come here with students (one former and one current), they've never given me any trouble. It's a great place to hang out and study if you like "that old smell" because it does have it. One of the better college libraries I've been inside.

This location takes advantage of being in an old Stickley building and the library rooms sprawl throughout the building and include a children's area, study rooms, public reading and work areas where they sometimes host events, and maker labs. They have a huge selection of books, music, and other media here. The whole children wing is a big hit for my toddler and I love watching her interact with the other kids here. I consider this my "home" library even though I'm not a Fayetteville resident. That should tell you something about how its patrons are treated!
