(I'm only addressing our newly refurbished library located within the Vacaville Cultural Center on…read moreUlatis Drive.) Vacaville just spent $2.6M I believe it is and it took over a year to upgrade the library here. It is just around the corner from me and I have dearly loved it for nearly 20 years. Once warm and inviting with a charming tree sculpture in the children's area it now seems rather unaesthetic and the materials came across as cheap-looking to me. I thought to myself that I could've done a better job with $680,000 on a Home Depot credit card! I mean for God's sake ~ $2.6.M!? Gimme a break. They could not even power wash the filthy bench area out front located as the last thing you see before you go through the new front doors? That wonderful wood tree sculpture that was always so wonderful to gaze at every time I ever went in there should at least be put in the large computer area or SOMEPLACE within the new library (they are apparently trying to "rehome it" elsewhere in town) So please~ power wash that entire cement area out front! And do whatever you can to warm it up. I will miss the comfy chairs near the entrance where people used to sit and read for hours ~ I don't recall seeing any place to do that anymore but admittedly I took a quickie tour. as there just wasn't much to see of interest. It just seemed to be so sterile! You can go outside where they have some type of patio area out back. But it's not the same that's for sure. I'm also concerned that when I double-checked my facts on the price I saw that it was actually over $24M! Heart attack time! When I first heard of $2.6M and then took the tour I thought we're looking at a lot of corruption here; there had to be a ton of kickbacks somewhere ~something is off. It simply doesn't look like a $2.6 mil upgrade! And if it's $24M then somebody needs to open up an investigation by midnight tonight! Everybody go see for yourselves. Is it just me? Am I off? In the meantime I'll post these two photos....

My daughter loves to come here and borrow books or just sit down and study. It is easy to sign up for a library card so i suggest you do that since it is free! I like their website since it gives you convenience like knowing if what you need is available or if you want to reserve or put a hold on it. You will then get a text message if it is available for pick up. The staff are helpful and accommodating too!

It was on the second or third floor and I swear to you I can still smell the scent of the old book Goosebumps books. But that was years ago and Suisun City was able to construct this fantastic building next to Suisun Elementary and the Croc Center. It's small but the librarians there are extremely friendly and helpful. All around, this is a great addition to Suisun City.

That being said, I found myself pulling out several books for my daughter as I walked around inside. I found three of my own childhood favorites that had faded from memory in just minutes after arriving. I love when that happens. Having visited the Fairfield, Vacaville and now Suisun library, I'd say that despite its size, this library is just as great as any other in the area. Lots of windows, comfy seating for story time and an adequate amount of work tables for the size of the space. We will definitely be back, glad I stumbled upon this gem a few weeks ago!

The other libraries that participate in story time do not lock the doors. Walked around the library and it was exactly what I remembered it being from when I used to go as a child. The only thing that's changed is that there are A LOT of homeless in the front and back of the library which is unfortunate. I don't think I'll be back to this library with so many others to choose from that don't have homeless hanging around outside. The back of the library near the water is still nice

I don't have a library card with them but they were nice to me for answering my questions. I will say that this library is small but at least they have computers to use. Parking can be rough to find since you have to find street parking near the library or just walk from the shopping center.

In honor of Earth Day, I decided to visit this library. I've been meaning to do this for almost a…read moreyear. I've seen some libraries with some great library of things. Useful items that you usually you only use once or twice. Borrowing instead of buying makes so much sense. But this library things just blew me away with its extensive collection. Pickleball? Sewing machine? Weights for weightlifting? Cookie cutters? They got it. They have day passes for state parks, museums, theaters... You don't need your own fax machine or your own printer. If you're computing needs are light, just come to the library and use their computers. The fees are so much more reasonable than buying equipment that becomes obsolete in 3 to 5 years. This particular library seems to have a fairly large collection of physical books. Of course, I zoomed straight for the cookbook and the gardening books. They have a great selection of cookbooks. I have collected cookbooks in the past. I got up to 65 before I realized: my shelves were about to collapse. I was only using each cookbook at best 3 to 5 recipes. This is when you realize you have got to clean house and use the library instead. But don't limit yourself to the physical books, remember to check the electronic resources. As far as I know, you have access to many libraries in the California system. I have memberships to many of the towns and cities where I have resided, and they have never canceled my electronic memberships. So I have access to at least three major systems. And it's a good thing I have access to online resources because by the time I picked up all the Cook books I knew I had reached my physical limits and it was time to stop. I was sucked in by the gift shop. This particular section had even more outré books. I picked up a book for fountain pen collectors, and I was about to buy a classic book from Harold McGee when I realized it was available online. Thank goodness. This was a bit too much weightlifting for me. A friend of mine once suggested a wonderful gift. For anyone who's into books, go to the library and pick out a selection of books that you would recommend highly. Your friend gets to read some great books without dealing with the space requirements. And if they don't like it, it's easy to get rid of them. Happy earth day! Here's to enriching your life without cluttering it.

The library feels alive, welcoming and social, with people learning, collaborating and participating in events throughout the day. There's a wide range of resources available and the staff is amazing. Everyone I have interacted with has been kind, patient and eager to help. I am especially thankful to one staff member, whose name I will add when I remember it, who assisted me in the Memory Lab. With her help I was able to digitize 30 year old VHS tapes of my grandparents who have since passed away. The events, tools and services offered here are truly impressive and accessible to the public. From technology assistance to creative programs the library goes above and beyond to serve its community. I am incredibly grateful for the resources they provide and for the caring staff who make this library such a meaningful place.
