I've patronized a lot of libraries and this one is pretty phenomenal. When I jokingly told one of…read morethe librarians recently that they pretty much have everything but a coffee bar, he deadpanned they're building one in the new addition. And he was serious! Every book I've wanted to see, they've had. They have a great periodicals section with pretty much every magazine that matters and the New York Times and Wall Street Journal in addition to the local and state newspapers. You can check out electronic books, digital music and even -- I kid you not -- a freaking fishing pole if you'd like to do a little angling at Scott County Park or on North Elkhorn Creek. This place even provides free notary service. It wouldn't surprise me if they'd even wash your car for you if you ask nicely. All in all, one of the best libraries I've visited and a great community asset for Kentucky's ninth-largest city.

Went there to get an International document notarized. The old lady at the front counter who stated…read moreshe was a notary tried to alter the document which is against the law. Clearly this old lady has no clue as to her role as a Notary. Went to a local Attorney's office and they notarized it without any problems. Clearly the librarian was attempting to practice law without a license. The lady needs to be investigated as she is giving legal advice on international documents and has not a clue what she's talking about.

I have to confess though that, on this particular day, I was visiting in order to visit the rotunda which features the world's largest ceiling clock, a 5-story Foucault pendulum, and a frieze depicting the history of the horse on the Bluegrass. Beautiful! It was also clear that this is a "living library" -- with many patrons (including school students), signs for community events, and Ask a Librarian research assistance. There is a parking garage next door (the library validates for up to two hours) and some street parking.

I recently attended a Fruit Tree Disease Management class there and was thoroughly impressed with the facility! It's a huge building with ample parking. It has several very nice meeting rooms and they offer all sorts of free classes. They put out a newsletter each month with all of the classes and events listed. I'll definitely be visiting for more events soon. One really nice service is that you can request books from the library and pick them up/drop them off at the box just outside Kroger in Brannon Crossing. If you live in the north side of Jessamine county, this makes getting library materials much more convenient.

I never attended UK so I rarely come to this library. I stopped by the other day to study with my…read morecousin and best friend and it was great environment to work in with them. William T. Young library has 5 floors with about 5-6 cores (another word for the different sections they have inside the library). It's a massive library, and definitely has a Hogwarts feel to it. We were on the 5th floor, sat in a very open area. All the tables were occupied in our area but it wasn't overcrowded. We were able to talk and it didn't seem like we were disturbing anyone around else as we were catching up. It also wasn't cold inside the library, which was great because that means I never have to worry about bringing a blanket with me next time I work here again. The chairs, although wooden, were actually pretty comfortable and being surrounded with the right people, time flew back quickly. UK also has a great guest wifi that you can access easily by creating a quick account. You're allowed to connect up to 5 devices on that wifi account. No student ID needed to get in, so definitely looking forward to working here again.

The higher you go, the quieter it gets, which is great for focusing. Each floor has a mix of open tables and private rooms to study, so every student can find their own ideal spot.

There are also so many resources available, and the Starbucks inside makes it easy to grab food without leaving the building.

The wifi just pops on without needing a password or anything; what a thought! There is a garage underneath the place. As libraries go, this is rather retro in the sense that it still has a lot of physical books and some, but not a ton of spaces for people to sit or do meetings. I imagine the library of the future being a ton of little rooms for zoom meetings. That being said, this tiny town doesn't seem to place too much demand on the space, and it's a nice place to be.

Sponsored by AARP, you are not required to be a member, retired or of a certain age for this free service. You will need a tax package which can be picked up at any library.

They file your tax for you and give you copies of everything. I'd say it's worth it. Tip, call for an appointment in January so you can go to the location of your choice. 32
