The absolute sweetest librarian helped me today with something so confusing to me, I was barely…read moreable to explain it. I think her name was Kenna, and she helped me over the phone and didn't get confused at all. I use the Libby app and it was all messed up. She didn't just help, but explained it to me so if it happens again, I'll be able to do it. People don't go to libraries as much as they used to, but if you ever want to read a book, or listen to an audiobook, please use the Libby app with Athens Public Library. They're also very helpful with setting it up for you if you don't know how. And they'll help you, like I needed help today, with any problems.

Yesterday we went to the Madison County Service Center to the Tax Assessor's Office. We received…read moreour property tax bills and both of us were surprised at the high bills. I called and was transferred and then the phone hung up on me. I tried to call a second time and the same thing happened. That's why I went to the Service Center. We both went thru the metal detector and my knees triggered the alarm. The deputy looked at me and I volunteered to show both knees. He told me that wasn't necessary. The alarm is triggered quite regularly by individuals who have had replacements he said. We signed in and received a ticket to wait for the tax assessor's office to call our number. 30 seconds later our number was called and we went to the second floor. A very nice young lady looked at our tax bills and told us the homestead exception was removed. She was able to reinstate the exemption and print out the new tax bill. All we had to do was head downstairs and sign in again to visit the tax collector's office. We signed in and 15 seconds later our number was called. We went inside and I paid the tax bills. This visit to the Service Center was smooth and quick. I am glad I wasn't trying to register a car or renew my car tag. If there were 100 people waiting, only 5 of us were there for services other than waiting for the license department. It occurred me it's the last Friday in September and the month will end on Wednesday so people were trying to get their car tags renewed by the 30th. For me my experience was great. 5/5

I kindly proceeded with my request to get our son's birth certificate. Her exact response was, "Oh no, you're not! We stop processing at four." This was completely rude and unnecessary. We drove all the way from Madison to this office. Since my husband works, I'm at home with our children, and we share a car, it is almost impossible to do anything outside of doctor's appointments during the week. This office needs to clarify their process on google and on their website since it's clear that this is a common issue. Also, they should learn to be more kind or take some SIMPLE customer service classes. This is public service, DO BETTER!!!

From start to finish the process was smooth and orderly. I was treated with respect and privacy, well as much privacy as you can have when mass vaccinating in a 'Community Room.' It appeared that the majority of the care providers were nursing students from UAB. These ladies and gentlemen did an outstanding job. Thank you for taking on an honorable profession and thank you to the regular staff of the health department. This operation was obviously well thought out. Thanks to you all again and may God Bless and protect you as you drive on!

Totally worth the drive than having to wait a couple hours or half a day at the local HSV office. If you don't know about the REAL ID Act... Effective January 22, 2018, air travelers with a driver's license or identification card issued by a state that does not meet the requirements of the REAL ID Act (unless that state has been granted an extension to comply with the Act) must present an alternative form of identification acceptable to TSA in order to board a commercial domestic flight. Over the next two years, those states that are not REAL ID compliant are strongly encouraged to meet the requirements of the law for the benefit of their residents. Upon successfully getting through the metal detectors on the 1st floor, the license office is forward and to your left, then the first door on RT. Be prepared to read a lot of signs, but don't fret. You're in the right place. ;D There will be a screen to check-in at to obtain a # specific to your visit. STAR*IDs (whether drivers license or non-driving ID) are on the 1st floor in that office where one gets their #. DL renewals are on 2nd floor. Appointments are recommended, but who wants to wait 2-3 weeks out, right?! Came in here recently to get a STAR*ID drivers license since I lost mine, and was quite pleased w my experience. From the officers at the front scanning machine / metal detectors to the worker (Michelle B.) who assisted me, all were genuinely kind and respectful! If you present yourself w respect & kindness to others, it'll be mirrored back to you here. Though don't take kindness as naive or weakness. They're tough cookies here yet respectful. Gotta love when you come across kind government workers. They're far and few, especially in SoCal. Lol. Anywho, if you had to choose between HSV and Decatur, I totally recommend getting your necessary documents done here. I was in @ 9:02a, seen @ 10:20a, and out the door w a new STAR*ID DL at 10:35a! Thanks Michelle B. for being quick, efficient, hospitable, and kind!! While the waiting room was tight, bring your patience for those around you, maybe even a book or a juiced up mobile phone (ringer off), and lots of grace and mercy for the irritable and disrespectful kid w their tiresome parent. Last but not least, be sure to leave your firearms, knives, and such weapons in the car, or risk having the metal detector go off. Lesson learned. Yikes! Had to go back out and secure mine in the car. The officers were super kind about it, I think surprised too. Lol.
