They have a small but robust selection of fiction/nonfiction books, up-to-date magazines, books-on-tape, new DVDs (comparable to the new releases at any Redbox and only $2 for 7 days), and computers and free wireless Internet for those who need a little connection while in town. Out-of-towners can't obtain a library card unless they can supply a permanent address in the area, but there are lots of little cozy seating areas for you to enjoy reading while you're there. Our favorite part is the children's area, with plenty of books in great shape plus puzzles and felt boards and lots of things to occupy little ones. When in town visiting family, it's a great little outing that everyone enjoys! I love this library!

I thought it was neat that they had memory trigger bags for those with Alzheimer's or Dementia, series sets to check out at once, audio books, and so much more. Even cake pans! You're also able to rent things on the app, and they make it easy to renew books virtually as well. And when I slipped up and forgot to renew, they let me know they don't collect late fees! They're an asset to the Soo community and I recommend everyone check them out and register for a library card.

We had to find a place to camp along the way to Toronto that night (too cheap to get a hotel room two nights in a row...plus we had a tent with us and i wanted to do some fishing in Canada) so we needed some internet. Outta the corner of my eye, I spied this tiny little library (well, it was really because two chicks were getting off of moped they were sharing and they happened to be parked in front of said library). What a place!! Free internet! NO questions asked! By far the most stoned human being I've ever spoken to in my life!! I've seen people that appeared more shellacked, but this guy actually conversed with me for a second and he was dizzity-DIZZ-UN. While checking my email for the first time in a week (and seeing that some dude bought something from me on eBay the day I left and I wouldn't be shipping that for another couple days...whoops), I kept spying over dude's should to see what he was mumbling about. He youtubed methadone, methamphetamine, and oxycontin videos for the hour we were there. Why youtube people on the same drugs you're obviously on? My buddy suggested that they were probably his own videos and he was probably commenting on himself. Touche. Yep, so this library was sweet. Did the trick. Totally free. Everyone was cool. Except dude when he both bummed a cigarette and a lighter. And then asked us for a ride 'up the hill' even though the place is pretty effin' flat. And we had no room in the overstuffed-Jetta.

I can't help myself: I need to visit the public library whenever I visit a new place. So when I saw…read morethe Mackinac Island Public Library tucked into a corner off of the main drag, I popped in. This library is small, but what do you expect from a library on an island? Franky, I'm surprised that there's even a library on Mackinac Island. But there is, and it has a nice selection of books, magazines and movies. There's also a small kids area, with toys, puzzles, puppets, a chess set and computers with kid-friendly software on it. In the middle of the library are some long tables to sit at, and there are a few comfy chairs situated around a fireplace. This is a cute and charming public library. Of course, the public is free to visit this library. Hours vary, I think, depending on the season.

Plus they either own, or have access to millions of books from other libraries. They sponsor a couple of community reads each year, often dealing with the experiences of marginalized peoples. Their youth programming is amazing, and they offer a "safe space" for students after school. Book clubs, game nights, classes, computer support sessions, even a computer coding club are offered.

When entering, it looks like just a very nice library entry, and then you see the real beauty behind it. The library is a pristinely renovated school built in 1927. The renovation is absolute perfection. You have to actually visit and see it to get the feeling that goes with it. It has multiple wings, artwork, children's sections, auditory and visual sections, complete with many different things for them to do aside from read. The interactive aspect of this library is Outstanding. They have computer systems for people to work with, lounge areas, specialty book areas, even the bathrooms are done in beautiful ways for each section! They have devices that you can rent for training, and so much more. It is truly an emotional experience to go in, look at the history, and see all of the beautiful touches that have Been made for the public. We spoke with a lovely woman, Mary Ann Chew, who is on the board, and also helped create all of the beautiful things. You will see when entering the library. From the architecture, the art work, to the availability of materials and even a room dedicated to book sales, you will NOT be disappointed!
