The library staff is so friendly and helpful! The books I needed were at this branch and normally…read morethey would bring them to my home library via the library van, but I needed them sooner for my book club. The librarian showed me the leader's guide which also included a sign out sheet to keep track of who had which copy. I entered through the east door on the ground floor. An elevator took me to the 2nd floor where the library is located. Although I didn't get a chance to browse the shelves, the library has a healthy collection of books and there is also interlibrary loan. Other services include: ADA Accessible Bike Racks Computers Free WiFi Printing, Scanning, Copying & Faxing Opened in 1976, the library was named after former mayor A.V. Sorensen, who donated the land. The second floor is the library and the first floor is a recreation center.

Cute library in the Dundee neighborhood. They're attached to a community center that we did not…read moreexplore. My husband came here to partake of a D&D event at the library. My daughter and I spent awhile upstairs in the kid's area. They have some cute plastic food toys with a kitchen attached to the wall. Even though she's older that kept her entertained for quite some time. The staff were very nice and had fun chatting with her. The pickup area for books was very organized. Their bathrooms were also clean. My ONLY complaint was parking. We got there very early and parked on the East side of the building no problem. Later when we had to go get lunch their parking lot was full. We found they had additional parking on the West side but they were also full and the streets were packed. I know it was a Saturday, but I can imagine it being very frustrating to park. When we were leaving there was someone doing illegal substances in their van next to our car which was concerning to say the least and no I'm not talking about the devil's lettuce I'm talking about harder stuff. That isn't really the library's fault, but be aware of what's going on. I prefer Millard over A.V. Sorenson but it's not terrible.
