My family and I have come to this library before a couple years ago. We first came here to get…read morepassports for our kids, and I highly recommend it if you need passport services. Just be sure to book your appointment online! The appointment slots open I think exactly one week in advevery Monday (I'm not 100% sure on that though, and the time slot optionsare very limited and fill up quickly. If you can snag an appointment, it's one of the easiest and smoothest places to get passports done, especially with kids. Most recently, we used one of the multipurpose rooms here for a homeschool class event, hosted by an employee from the Las Vegas Natural History Museum for an ocean life class. I really love that the museum does that and we've always had great experiences with classes like this brought to us. Overall, this is a fantastic library for so many reasons, not just for checking out books, but also for community events, meeting spaces, and passport services. We've had nothing but great experiences here!

I usually really enjoy Windmill Library, which is why I decided to come here today instead of going…read moreto a coffee shop while I worked on some of my journal projects. The library is always clean and welcoming, there are beautiful art displays throughout, and there are plenty of comfortable areas to sit, read, study, or work on a laptop. Unfortunately, today the noise level was honestly surprising. There were groups of kids and teenagers playing games on the computers, talking loudly, yelling, and using pretty inappropriate language. It got to the point where I had to put my headphones in just to focus on my work. What was most disappointing was that staff didn't seem to address the noise, and I didn't see any security around during my visit. I completely understand that libraries are community spaces and don't need to be completely silent, but there should still be a reasonable expectation that people can come here to read, study, or work without excessive noise. I'm hoping today was just an unusually loud day because I've always liked this location. I'll probably give it another try in a few weeks, maybe once school is back in session. It really is a beautiful library, I just wish the environment today matched the peaceful space it's meant to provide.

One of Las Vegas's hidden gems, and it's FREE!…read more I recently visited the Sahara West Library, and I have to say, it's so much more than a place to borrow books! I was especially impressed by the beautiful art galleries and The Return, a stunning Día de los Muertos exhibit that makes this place worth a visit all on its own. Sahara West Library 9600 W. Sahara Ave., Las Vegas @lvccld Here's what I loved about this spot: Free admission and Wi-Fi Beautiful art and cultural exhibits Quiet spaces to read, work, or study Private study rooms available by reservation Free library cards available at the front desk The exhibit The Return will be on display through November 30, 2026, so there's still time to see it! I love discovering places in Vegas that offer something different without having to spend a dime. Whether you want to enjoy the art, find a peaceful place to read, or simply explore somewhere new, this is definitely worth adding to your list.

We had a return and a donation. Also checked out a couple of books too. Paid my late fine…read more We finally got to check out the Book store. Guess we usually come on a saturday, and it wasn't open. Pricing is very good. We didn't find anything. Has well-stocked shelves in many different categories, even foreign language items, which surprised me. I know some languages, other than English. But only fully fluent, about 80%, in one of my mom's languages (she knows four languages, fluently). Noticed that the display cases inside of the main lobby have been moved. This is a pretty large Library.

They have a little store with items like drinks and snacks and other stuff you might need . It also sells gas . It has like 5 video porker machines if you wanna play . I got a slurpe and a candy bar and sat on the side where they have a large western mural and some chairs with tables and some books if you want to read something . It is covered and you can just relax and look around the town and the park . The park has clean restrooms also . Sometimes you will see wild burros munching on the grass .

It's about 12 miles from the Albertsons at W. Charleston and Desert Foothills, where many cyclists park, to Blue Diamond, so it's a popular turn-around spot. We often stop here to use the bathroom (clean), fill up our bottles, and buy some cookies or a popsicle on hot days. They even have free ice, which is very much appreciated when you're sweating like a piggy. If you're lucky, you'll see a bunch of burros who hang out at the park nearby.

It creates so much unnecessary stress and confusion. My friend currently attends here and absolutely hates the experience. Some professors are helpful, but others are rude, overly nitpicky with certain students, and don't even teach the material clearly or effectively. It honestly feels inconsistent depending on who you get. Even emailing staff and administrators is a nightmare. It feels like you have to turn into a Karen just to get a clear answer or have someone actually respond and help you. Students shouldn't have to constantly chase people down just to get basic information. Clinical scheduling is also a complete mess. Sites keep changing last minute, schedules are unclear, and students are expected to just adjust with little communication. For a program that's supposed to prepare students professionally, the organization and support are seriously lacking. Overall, the environment feels disorganized, frustrating, and poorly managed. I wouldn't recommend this school unless you're prepared to deal with constant confusion and lack of communication.

You can sense just how much they truly love their customers with the design of the boutique, the thoughtful recommendations, the perfect pairings of candles, legos, tote bags, figurines, journals, etc. It also feels like a safe space, filled with women and children. They didn't have what I was looking for in stock but I found some adorable spooky candles for Halloween for $11-$13. As the world is increasingly taken over by AI, boutiques like this are gems that we need to support and protect in our community. Shopping small is the only way can ban together and keep the money in the hands of locals. I hope you choose to support local businesses like Buffy's Book Boutique too.

[Parking]: Easy and free strip mall parking. [Selection]: Throughout the store, visitors can find laminated cards with Buffy's Team Recommendations on books. For non-book items, the store sells stickers, bookmarks, chess and spirit boards, Lego sets, etc. For books, the store mostly focuses on young adult and fantasy titles. Other genres include self-development, magic & mythology, sci-fi & fantasy, general fiction, social science, business, horror, LGBTQ+, philosophy, humor, thrillers, short stories, biology, rare books, etc. [Other notes]: Check the bookstore's IG page for workshops, meetups, and Lego nights. In addition, the restroom door didn't lock for some odd reason. [Conclusion]: A cute bookstore and a worthwhile stop for hardcore bookworms. P.S. - The bookstore offers a stamp card with the 5th stamp = 5% off and the 10th stamp = 10% off.
