It's small but mighty! If they don't have want you need, they will order it. Great little library!

I visited the library after attending a block party rally event calling for more transparency in…read moretulsa courts by requiring camera placement in each courtroom and judge chambers. i decided to go in the library after the event in large part because of a previous court case i'd observed, in which a judge asked a party representing herself to provide copies of her piece of evidence, but because the court copy machine was not working, she had to go across the street to print copies from the library. and due to the potential postponement of a court date i surmise such a delay could engender, i'd decided to print a copy of the flyer i received promoting the event from the library printer, as i'd not used any copying machine at that library location since its remodeling. the print and copy station, located on the first floor, at about the middle of the room to the right, facing away from the main court adjacent entrance, was user friendly based on the experience i had. the copy machine charged 25 cents to print the flyer with color, and it would have been 10 cent if i were printing in black and white. further, the copy machine, located in the picture to the far left, includes instructions for how to use it, with the only confusion i'd experienced being which direction to face the document in the insert slot, so you might want to pay a lil closer attention to that aspect than others when printing a copy. lastly, having not visited the library for any significant amount of time since the installment of study rooms to the second floor, i got a close look into some of the several reservable glass enclosement quiet rooms overlooking downtown, a distinct feature among all library locations i've visited, in tulsa or otherwise.

If you haven't been down to the Central Library in downtown Tulsa you are missing out. I attended…read morefor an event and the space was perfect! Great place to host events, ample spots for vendors to set up, great conference room space. Parking can be a bit tricky but the parking garage felt safe and secure. You do have to keep in mind that there are homeless in the area but I did not have any concerns.

i went to the library yesterday to ask if i'd be able to post a flyer at the location for an…read moreupcoming event celebrating april birthdays of children with autism, in conjunction with easter. the young woman who assisted me kindly asked me to show her a confirmation email from the county library online support giving approval for posting the flyer at library locations, which i'd received a couple days prior within about two days of requesting permission. she then promptly posted the flyer on the bulletin board in the first corridor of the library, before the main book section. then, while waiting for a ride from the library, i was blessed to get the opportunity to observe a magnificently curated display in the library corridor regarding the history of black wall street, as well as significant people to the literary tradition cultivated at the particular library location, which is the home of the african american resource center for the tulsa library system. among the individuals recognized for efforts to the library include hannibal johnson, john hope franklin, and nikki giovanni, each of whom is pictured on a wall display along with a quote from each concerning a connection to the library. lastly, i'd like to offer an observation about the black wall street display that especially resonated, which is that the description accompanying the image of the williams family at the center of the particular display emphasizes that the couple chose to build a life in the greenwood district more for the economic opportunity available than the connection to african american culture. yet, the image and description is juxtaposed with a display case of egyptian artifacts, which though i'm not certain is a permanent display, suggests to me that although some individuals significant to african american have not placed an emphasis on cultivating a distinct culture, culture still perseveres in history.

Rudisill is a nice community library. Although modest in size it as a nice collection of books,…read morevideos, papers and topical materials. It also has an adequate quantity of computers (complete with WiFi) available for independent research. It has an African American focus with historical records and art work. Very helpful member of the community it serves.
