I have visited several times and have not been disappointed.

I was passing through and needed to stop somewhere to get some work done. I googled the nearest…read morelibrary and this is where I ended up. Looked good when I first arrived. I enjoy small local libraries. Was well kept and good. I sat and began working. Unfortunately, I guess there was a shift change or something because within 15min the place became very loud and very active. The activity was fine but the loudness was odd. The woman employee at the front desk set the tone for that and everyone began interacting and speaking loudly. Endless flow of people engaging and talking with raised volume in the workspace. Most who were working and sitting in that area got up and left, which makes sense. When things slowed down with patrons no longer comign up to the main desk, the woman up front engaged other colleagues in conversation and was walking around the space and continued to speak as if it was her living room - loudly. And the other patrons who I guess didn't care about quiet took her lead and began using their outside voices. I tried to ignore it and continued working but the loud voices were super irritating and when the loud laughter started that was it. Quite unfortunate for a small community library. It is a cute place and my experience started great but the culture turned that late morning into early afternoon and was really bad. It was less a library environment and more like an active office space with people talking to each other across the room.

Not a huge library by any means, but I'm usually able to browse the stacks and find something interesting to read. I love the self-service checkout process. Book checkouts are two weeks. You can renew books online (up to 5 times, I believe), which is very handy. There are computers available for public use, and they always seem to be full of happy library goers. Printers and Wi-Fi too. Music downloads. Audio- and e-books. After-hours book drop. Meeting rooms available for rent. Plenty of parking. Friendly staff. Always clean and organized.

"Mindless fiction" is right. Morgade is a clean, well-lit library with very friendly staff…read more Ample computer stations, comfortable chairs. Wonderful room for children. Very nice. But POOR policy on collecting books. These people constantly buy and cram their stacks with the latest trash fiction until shelves are filled with it. Are you krazy for Koontz? Ga-ga for Grisham? Here's your place... and plenty more! Patterson, Steele, Stephen King, Toni Morrison -- every by-the numbers formula book-of-the-week is here --- hundreds of 'em. (And no end in sight.)This library desperately needs more creative & intelligent acquisitions, like economics, history, self-help, social issues, current thought and commentaries, etc etc. Also cries out for more serious periodicals. (The truth is, the problem is bigger than just Morgade -- probably the entire Martin County system hews to the whole trash-fic policy. As for periodicals, they evidently are afraid to subscribe to any mag that actually publishes an opinion.) *sigh* The Martin county libraries are run by nice people, but I do wish they'd be more thoughtful and comprehensive in their acquisitions.

I have never felt so humiliated, intimidated, and unwelcome in a public library. My experience with…read moreSupervisor Bethany Hankin was one of the most degrading customer service interactions I have ever experienced, and it left me questioning whether I was treated this way because I am a Black woman. As a nursing student preparing for the NCLEX, I drove to this library specifically to study in a quiet environment. Instead of leaving feeling supported by a public institution, I left feeling emotionally shaken, embarrassed, and deeply hurt. The issue began because library staff made an error when booking my study room. Rather than acknowledging or attempting to resolve the mistake professionally, Bethany immediately approached me with hostility and aggression. I remained calm and respectfully tried to explain the situation, yet she spoke to me in a confrontational manner, discussed me within earshot of other patrons, and publicly embarrassed me over an error that was not mine. The most disturbing part of this interaction was Bethany's decision to threaten to call security on me while I was calmly trying to explain what had happened. At no point was I disruptive, threatening, or disrespectful. Being threatened with security simply for attempting to resolve a staff mistake was frightening, humiliating, and completely unnecessary. As a Black professional, I cannot ignore how this interaction made me feel. I left believing that I was treated differently because of my race. Whether intentional or not, the hostility, intimidation, and lack of respect I experienced were unlike anything I have encountered in a customer service setting. A supervisor should lead with professionalism, empathy, and conflict resolution--not intimidation, public humiliation, and escalation. Bethany's conduct reflected a complete failure in customer service and de-escalation. Her behavior was not only unprofessional but also damaging to the welcoming environment that every public library should provide. Because of this experience, I will never return to this library. I sincerely hope library administration conducts a thorough investigation, reviews any available security footage, speaks with witnesses and staff members, and provides Bethany with substantial coaching in customer service, de-escalation, implicit bias, and respectful communication. No patron should ever leave a public library feeling degraded, singled out, or afraid simply because they tried to discuss a mistake made by staff. This experience is something I will not soon forget, and I hope the library takes meaningful action to ensure no one else is made to feel the way I did.

After passing through the bathroom/book check-in entryway area and through the security panels, an inviting middle walkway lined with dvds invites one to browse. Modern comfortable seating - living-room style - provides an inviting space to chill and peruse one's findings. There is a 'local authors' section next to the security panels when you walk in, a nice touch. There is a room just for teenagers and young adult fiction; I would have loved this room if it had existed when I was a teenager! It includes tables and computers. Awesome for teens to have a 'safe' space away from adults and small children. The children's area is quite spacious, with a large entryway and open corridors between sections. The area is placed far from the regular library-goers so that children might squeal without disturbing too many patrons. It also features: lots of lights entering from windows, whimsical wooden bookcases and chairs, and a family bathroom (complete with child-size toilet and sink). The leather seating is pretty worn out, but otherwise the space is well-kept. The parking lot features a ton of parking spaces and a drive-through book drop-off.
