I really wanted to be able to rate the Holliston Public Library better…read more The problem is that, even with great service and staff, if the computers don't WORK then there just is no point in myself coming back. Sure, a library is full of books... but people come to use the fax machine, look at reference material, do research, use the computers (to print.....), make photocopies, use the children's room, and so on and so on and so on. In life, I try to get away from the most boneheaded negotiations... and in my opinion: cars, cell phones and PRINTERS are three things that also cost more in the long run that ever expected. Now, I have a cell phone and a car, but because there is a library in every town and throughout both of the previous ones I've had they have never worked, I don't have a printer at home..... and aren't considering getting one. Whenever I need to print something or things I either do it at the school I work at, or at a library, and in this case, I was driving right by this library and decided to stop in. From the outside of the building, it's old and inside is even older.... in all ways. Not even somewhat new / decent computers and the printing system barely works and is horrible at that. When you print a document, half of the time the computer will print and other times it won't. If you are using Google Drive, you have to download every document, re align the margins and so forth, and then print it. Then, you'll have to go to the main desk, because the printer is behind the desk (so much for confidential documents..... then again, I really don't care if they see what I'm printing.....), and check if it printed. After fumbling around with the system for fifteen minutes I left. Even though they only charge 10 cents a page, the Milford Library has an automated system that is so fast and efficient and works properly. Downfall is that they charge $.20. Since I was making a lot of prints, that wasn't feasible. Anyway, my time spent here was honestly a waste. In general, the staff were trying to be very helpful and attentive, but the technology was the issue here. I cannot comment on the book variety or DVD section as I didn't check out any other sections of the library, but I can say that if you are going in here to use a computer (and especially if you are looking to print), you might want to drive ten to fifteen minutes to the Milford Library. 2 stars. Extremely disappointing.

Unfortunately, the staff, specifically a young lady (maybe 30) with brunette hair, enforces library rules with so much hostility that I don't care to go back. She has communicated rules with unwarrented hostility on multiple occasions. I have seen other people kicked out with little warning simply for speaking a little loudly in the eating area. If you're going to have rules, have rules that serve a benevolent purpose. If you're going to enforce the rules, maybe take a deep breath before doing so and consider the human you're speaking to.

There are windows everywhere which allows natural light to come in all directions which is great when you are studying for hours and need some vitamin d. The librarians are very friendly and helpful. You don't even need a library card to take books out, just your license. If they don't have a specific book you were looking for they will order it from another library and send you an email when it's ready. There selection is vast too so they usually do have the books I am looking for. They have two lots for parking so you will always find a spot.

I love when they do themes; My favorite was the Alice in Wonderland (book displays and amazing decorations throughout the library). My other favorite was from February, relating to Valentine's day: 'go on a blind date with a book' on the display upstairs. the books on display were beautifully wrapped with the only bar code showing, so you would check it out and then unwrap it for the 'date.' So creative. You can tell how passionate they are about reading, and how much they enjoy their work. They have a small area just for teens. Play area and big checker board downstairs in the children's library; I always encourage my students to visit. I've received tons of books through inter-library loan.

Plants, books and…read moreweird sculpture The first Buckingham Library started back in 1894 when the town decided to buy one hundred dollars worth of books and stick them in the house of a generous volunteer.. This was the official library until 1905 when the growing number of books were place in a spare room at the local school. It became increasingly obvious over the years that this was not the ideal solution so in 1930 the first "real" library was built. Conveniently located on Main Street, this library served well until maintenance problems and size restraints made the town realize that it needed a new and more modern library. So a new building was constructed and in 1989 opened it's doors for business. The new Bellingham Library isn't one of the most stunning libraries from the outside. Rather plain and symmetrical and except from the bizarre sculpture of a kid standing on her head guarding the front of the library, the building isn't going to drop any jaws. However the inside is extremely well designed with a nice flow of lines and everything nicely organized and easy to find. One of the best things about the library is the abundance of plants inside. Large and creeping greenery greet you around every corner. A pleasant addition to all the books and computers. The librarians were cheerful, funny and helpful and suited the ambiance of the library perfectly. A very pleasant library that has a sense of peace and purpose. The aesthetics won't blow you away but the building will impress in a quiet and gentle way. Especially if you happen to enjoy statures of kids doing somersaults.

I stopped at the Bellingham Public Library recently to print a few things out, and overall, while…read moreit's an older facility, it's organized (in terms of printing, computers, and books in general), clean, and worry-free. For the record, I don't go to my local library because there are always problems there. The Westwood Public Library and Norwood Public Library (both closest to my house) aren't ever reliable and don't have decent printers or even decent computers. Printing is expensive and not worth the aggravation when it doesn't work (over 50% of the time there is some sort of issue). So, whenever I need to visit a library, in order to go somewhere decent I have to take a trip about fifteen minutes away, when the point of a library is being local. This effects in myself having to stop at a library when I'm out and about and near one. I was in the Bellingham area and stopped here. First things first, kudos to whoever thought to place the library on Blackstone Street, not in the middle of everything and in a low traffic area, next to the Bellingham Middle School. Not that I would specifically bring my classes over, but at my middle school any field trip to the library is about a mile walk away, here you would just have to cross the parking lot. Convenient spot. It's sort of old, but has been kept up with care and is open, spacious and has more books than you would expect. Actually, from the outside it looks very small, but is actually quite large inside. There are lots of computers and a wonderful, working printing program that is easy, fast and compact. Copier and printer both work wonderfully and the staff at the front desk (especially Carol), are extremely helpful and friendly. I would come back if I were to be in the area again, would like this to be a local library for me! 5 stars for the Bellingham library.
