    One of the first things I do when I move somewhere is go to their local library and see what it's…read morelike. Coming from an actual city, and being in Janesville, I was prepared to see a few copies of a phone book, someone's yearbook from the '70s, and maybe a few old Dean Koontz novels with the jacket cover taped back on, and some pages missing. I was definitely in for a pleasant surprise. While they don't always have all of the latest books you'll have on your GoodsRead list, and they aren't open on Sundays, this is a very nice little library, and definitely the best community asset to Janesville. When you get a library card you get to choose between white or teal cards. The ground floor is a cafe, with seating where people are sometimes seen playing chess with strangers, or enjoying books that they've purchased, or picked up for free, as you can just drop off books there for people to grab, and also the "community room" which can be reserved for large meetings/gatherings. Other, smaller rooms are available on the second floor for anyone to reserve or request, as well. The second floor has a hold shelf for reserved books (you can put a hold on books online or at the library), self check out stations, an employee recommends section that lists what genres those employees are into so you know if their likes are a good fit for you to choose from, and all the the books. There's also a bulletin board with a listing of all sorts of local events going on in Janesville, and some going on in the library. There's a table with hand sanitizer and lotion. The real thing here is the events. This library hosts so many events and does so much for the community. It's truly impressive. The only thing I dislike about this library is that the return slot inside the library is not clearly labeled at all, and I wandered around like a fool until I saw other people slowly putting their items one at a time into a small, unlabeled, conveyor belt hole in the wall one at a time, and asked them if that was it. Haha. All the employees are hella nice. According to the website, there are other return sites for the books, including Woodman's, which I've also done a review on. Woodman's is open 24 hours a day, so if you're out getting your groceries in the middle of the night and need to return your library book, you can kill two birds with one stone, theoretically. I've yet to do so. I have attended a writing workshop here, an open mic event, a support group, and picked up a free craft project. I've only lived here a couple months.

    This place was fantastic. Not only was the building architecture lovely you can really tell that…read morethe community cares and puts money into this place. The self service kiosks were awesome, we'd never seen those before. There were loads of tables, computers, and seats to sit in where you could read. All of the windows are fantastic and the view overlooking the river makes those reading places super idealic. Outside there are places to sit and sculptures to enjoy as well as read again over looking the river. Also the book clubs in a bag are also a fantastic idea. This place made us really jealous of the people in Janesville, we wished our local library was even half as nice.

    Now this is the place where nerds salvate!! Why? Because there's a plethora of books and nooks to…read moreread books in this charming library! This library was recently renovated but keeping all the character from the old and just adding some new. (Tip, go upstairs and down the hall, to the left that's the beautiful ACTUAL old building) Leaving the old remnants to enhance the new made it a comfortable cozy place to spend the rest of your life...if it didn't have closing hours. Seriously though, it has so much for every age. I just want to have kids so I have have a weekly tradition of walking my kids to this exact library. From classes, to kids events, to computers, wifi, dvds, and an excellent young adult section. It just seems so much fun!! this centralized location brings the community together. Just grab some coffee, sneak it past those peering eyes, grab a book or magazine, whatever you want to nuzzle your nose into, and spend the afternoon in bliss at this gorgeous library. Oh and ride the elevator. I'm not sure why, but I just like the way it smells. P.S. the reason the bathrooms are that color is that the homeless people of Edgerton, don't try to live in the bathroom. I'm not kidding you.

    It is a pretty small library, but it has lots of DVD's and books for the kids and adults alike. My…read morenieces go to story time here, and the librarian knows them by name. Larger libraries just don't offer that as far as I've seen.
