STOP PARKING IN THE CHARGING/EV SPOTS IF YOU DON'T HAVE AN ELECTRIC CAR PLEASEEEE! its the only charger near me and I think its SO ignorant for members to SEE a spot clearly for an electric vehicle and park their gas-only car there. y'all are at the library so I'm assuming you can read!

Not as big as northeast and not as much to do but still fun and something free to do. We have also been to Chesapeake city and rising sun. All great places to take your kids! I would recommend the northeast branch out of all of them because there is so much for your kids to play with, they always have some kind of little activity for the kids to do (last week was matching mittens on a large board) always very clean, bathrooms are super nice and staff is great, very helpful very nice and welcoming!

While the building might not hold a huge collection, the new book section is extensive and books on hold arrive fairly quickly from the Delaware Library network. I've taken a free craft class here and have send signage for plenty of kid & family friendly free events. The kids section looks large and there's rarely been a visit where I haven't seen some kind of family or kid event going on there so probably a great destination option. Librarians and staff are friendly and helpful and any checkout lines move very quickly. Pro tip: Sign up for their newsletter and you'll get a consistent reminder of all the events they have going!

It's pretty big & has many computers as well as the "den" area where there's plenty of kids toys.

I hope Connor will love the library and reading as much as I do!

My usual library was closed so I looked up if there was any others in the area. I came across this…read moreone and wasn't expecting much as I drove over. I was mistaken as I walked up. It was gorgeous! The librarian looked like Judy Blume and was helpful when I asked for a place to study. I sat by the windows which overlooked a lake and got to people watch while charging my phone and laptop. Well lit and warm, I was able to finish some essays easily. Plenty of book selections that I briefly took a look at. Substantial areas for children and teens to spend time reading and hanging out. Computer lab looked incredible and very private so I image if you're trying to get some work done you'll be able to focus in there. The bathrooms were super clean like probably the cleanest I've seen for a public place. They have museum passes here which I love to see. Free Covid rapid tests are available too. Benches outside which would be great in the spring and summer to have lunch and hang out. So sad I don't live around here but I would totally take advantage of all their services if I did!

What an amazing, excellently organized library! I would expect nothing less. It's very spacious,…read moreeven for Pre-Covid, it's easy to navigate and manage personal space. The staff is very helpful, supportive, and upbeat. We did a self-tour and felt very comfortable. Easy parking for private front or back parking and easy entrance.

The best part of this library is the long hours during the school year for studying. They are open until 10:00PM Monday-Thursday, 4:30PM on Fridays, and have Saturday & Sunday hours.
