They have attractive displays in the entry area and throughout the library. There were enough signs around that made it easy for me to find the type of books I was looking for.

I can't even put into words how incredibly gorgeous, beautiful, spectacular it is. Really must go for yourself to see it!

The New Canaan library is currently in flux. It's clearly been expanded on at least once, and…read morethey're currently in process of building a whole new building. There is public parking behind, but the construction makes it challenging to get to. There is street parking, and if you're terrible at it like me, you may circle the block a few times. Inside they have a display so you can see what the future building will look like. They also have their regular children's and adults sections. The new building should be open in 2023, and looks like it will definitely be worth a visit!

Took a two year old here on a Saturday morning as soon as they opened. We were the first ones…read morethere and we were greeted by a security guard which was interesting for a library. I guess peace of mind? There is a secluded area for kids, which is nice. They have a bunch of puzzles and kids toys to play with, which is what we did for about an hour or so. They also have some educational computer games, which in my opinion is the opposite reason to come to the library (want to get the kids AWAY from screens). The man that worked there was overly welcoming, which was interesting and kind of off-putting, honestly. As we were playing, I heard a toilet flush from the kid area in the corner and he immediately came out (certainly didn't wash his hands!). Before we left, I took my kid to the same bathroom, which is a single bathroom for families. As soon as I opened the bathroom door, my nostrils were assaulted by the potent smell of urine. THERE WAS PEE ALL OVER THE SEAT AND IN A HUGE PUDDLE ALL IN FRONT OF THE SEAT. Obviously, it was the male employee that worked there since he was the one only person to use it that morning. ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was like he intentionally sprayed everything but the actual water in the toilet. Extremely vile and clearly he does not care about keeping an area that is designated for CHILDREN sanitary. Thank God there was Lysol sanitizing spray although that is NOT THE POINT. I shouldn't have to clean a public toilet because a grown man is too careless to aim. I will not make it a point to come back to this library because of that man. The woman at the desk in the kid area was very kind and helpful. I would've given 4 stars if I wasn't so disgusted.

I had to be placed on reservation for a computer in the main area. If the teen room is empty, what's the harm in using the computers in there? It's not like there isn't a time limit on computer usage. Silly policy. Not only that, they don't monitor the computer area. They allow people to freely use their cell phones and have loud conversations. Go to the East Norwalk branch. It's bigger, better, cleaner and doesn't smell.

We've attended a couple of their scheduled events. The beautiful, modern, minimalist auditorium incorporates the surrounding landscape seamlessly. Excellent acoustics and high-end electronic equipment help the speakers and performers give their best.

It was followed by a marvelous chamber music concert featuring a collection mostly contemporary works influenced by a connection with nature.

I'm unclear why there are hippos and elephants outside, unless it's just because they're awesome art. The inside is full of awesome art as well - some on permanent display, others seem to be more temporary.

There is also an innovation station, where you can work on art like monogram or paper arrangements. The librarians were also very friendly and encouraged quietly seeing how beautiful their library is.

A lot has changed in the past 30+ years and the library is nicely modernized but still keeps a familiar and welcoming feel. A big draw is the children's room. The book and media selection is fantastic, there is a fish tank and puzzles and games, and there are lots of year-round programs offered for kids of various ages. I also appreciate the bargain used books for sale - I always make sure to check these shelves out as several times I've found excellent like-new condition hardcover books for just a dollar or two. Thanks Wilton Library for being such a wonderful part of the town for so many years!
