We are so very lucky to live in a community that has such an outstanding library. The staff is…read morealways finding new and inventive ways to engage the young and old in activities that are age appropriate and enjoyable. And, of course, the library has a wonderful collection of books, movies, newspapers, magazines and streaming services. The staff has always been kind, courteous and helpful. Unfortunately, because of city cutbacks, the library has been unable to reopen on Sundays and Mondays. The library is my favorite building in the entire county and I encourage everyone to check out (forgive the pun) this gem.

It's great they have open hours on Sunday. My kids were happy to find the books from the various…read moreseries they're currently into with the help of the librarian. WiFi is good too. The place has a very nice feel and reminds me of the quality library from my old hometown. Getting a card was simple enough with merely showing my local bill for electricity.

This is an amazing library. They have an amazing selection of books. Very knowledgeable and…read morefriendly people working there. They also have many different things they offer.

The people are really nice, which is sort of the problem. Last year, I needed to study for a…read morecollege course over a period of months and there was simply nowhere that I could find quiet in that library. One man in particular who works there spoke in full voice and was just having a grand old time, all the time, and no amount of earplugs or distancing myself from the checkout counter was ever enough. I'm positive that the people he interacted with appreciated his energy and enthusiasm and liked being made to feel welcome but I eventually gave up and made the drive to Newport every time I needed to be able to really concentrate. Otherwise, it's a bright and cheerful place and I'd happily recommend it. To anyone who is NOT looking for a traditional library atmosphere.

The wifi sucks a video plays from 1-5 minutes then freezes. It will not restart and if you use…read morerefresh it starts from the begining and try to remember where to forward too until it locks up again on a few min. I don't even bother trying anymore. Intentional or not it is useless. Free at what price!!!

First time at the Corvallis Public Library. Friendly staff and clean facilities. Art on each floor…read more Quiet except for an occasional kid sound. Very pleasant lots of natural lights and different types of seating thru out. Nice study spaces and only 1.6 miles from university. Really enjoyed looking thru books and also they have a video game and DVD collection that is amazing!

Fond memories of taking my child to story time every week. She loved it. The parking is free and…read moreplentiful and there are some really good meeting rooms to reserve. The staff are super kind and helpful. You can also reserve books using the online platform and then just get them off the reserved shelf and check them out. This feature is so helpful if you want an in/out experience. The library is what makes this City right. They are doing an excellent job!! The books are super awesome - you can find so many great ones, and they pull from other Oregon libraries so you really aren't limited to the books at this location. A fat thumbs up to this library and everything it has to offer. Also - don't forget the cultural pass you can reserve. It was a great way to take your children to local attractions without paying an entry fee. What a great educational opportunity!!!!

I take my son here 2-3x a month and it is a wonderful library!…read more There are several things for toddlers and young children. Upstairs is the child area. The printing is a great deal as well. My favorite thing about this library though is the Friends of the library store to the right when you first walk in. You can donate books there and they sell them for very cheap as well. I just got two books on my wish list for $3 each and they appeared to be brand new! My mom said they used to have a cafe and she misses that part- but I wasn't here during that time.

Always just the very best folks here at our local library. Lots of good events happening here too…read more Free access to computers. Low cost copies. Magazines. Newspapers. DVDs. CDs. Books on CD. You can check out digital materials too. All very easy with the most helpful employees right there to help you out. Pleasant all around. Clean restrooms too, as an added bonus. Love the reading programs for children too

I do not visit Albany as regularly as I used to, but I have noticed that some staff or volunteers…read moreat this library have made dramatic improvements. I do not mean to denigrate the Salem library, but the new books shelf at the Albany library is MUCH more interesting. I read voraciously, but Albany is sourcing titles which have completely escaped my attention--and that of big-name book lists. The same discrimination is being shown in the little store run by the Friends of the library. Their shelves used to be blah, but are now always worth a look.

The library is huge, the dvd collection expansive and the people who work there are very helpful.read more

The City Of McMinnville has done a wonderful job with their public library…read more The outside is beautiful, and well cared for. The inside is clean and inviting. There is a reception area when you come in, and restrooms not far from it. There are two levels. Each one is very user friendly. There are tables and chairs to sit, and stay a while. There are lots of books and games available. Computers are also available to use.

This place is magical - and the staff are angels! I am so sad they are being defunded.read more

Love the smaller size and selection, and that you can get your holds shipped there. Friendly staff…read moreand not ever busy.

The selection is sufficient if just browsing and yes, the parking lot is small, but that's rarely…read morean issue. The staff is friendly and helpful, and best of all, you can easily order most any book and pick it up without much wait at all (for comparison, in other library systems I have had to wait months for a requested book to arrive). My biggest complaint is that the outside drop off box is closed, so you have to return books during hours or at another location. Other than that, it's a very acceptable library.

Stepping in to this library denotes nostalgia. It's located in this little town and has that nice…read morecomfortable feel to it. The library is small and feels more like a house than a public building. The librarian was closing up when I opened the door. She was nice enough though for my friends and I to peruse the books, and for me to take some pictures. I remember, not too long ago, when my husband and I got library cards. They were still typed on a regular library card. They too have come in to the technological community now so I would need a bar code if I wanted to borrow a book. I told her I would wait until next time.
