Sugar Grove had built this beautiful new library with a huge expansion, great for more books! This new space blows the old space WAY out of the water and I couldn't be more excited. Not only does this new location have much more to offer, but also has a cute little cafe that serves delicious drinks and treats. They also offer group and individual study spaces, meeting rooms that can be rented for small events, many comfy lounging chairs, a large computer room, a teen zone space, and large section for children. My favorite part of the library, aside from the books, is how involved the library is with the community. They host many family friendly events, movie nights, author signings and talks, offer computer and other hands on classes, and much more! For example, if you have a fine, they offer a food drive for exchange of debt on your account. The librarians are incredibly sweet, helpful, and have great taste in movies and books if you ever need a suggestion. My only complaint, which I wouldn't even really call it a complaint, more of a expectation that let me down is the structure of the building gives the illusion that the library has 2 floors, when really it has high ceilings with one floor. Don't get me wrong, I love the layout and the beauty of the this library, just wish that there was a second floor which would mean more books! How can you go wrong with more books.

The building is incredible, I kind of wish it was my house. They have an amazing space with a lot…read moreof potential. The library is all one level, all open design. The storytime room is so cute! It has a giant chick mural, and almost every storytime involves a craft. They have a nice area designated just for teens. You can't walk in without three people greeting you. The collection is a little dated, but they're working on it. I expect very good things from here in times to come.

This is actually a really nice library. Staff is always friendly and helpful, I feel they have a…read moregreat selection of books. Overall, I think this library is a great addition to the community. I will say this, the library is a place that welcomes all and while that is beautiful it does attract a couple of interesting characters. But, everyone tends to mind their business and keep themselves occupied. I do feel safe at this library. They use to have security guards at the entrance however, the last few visits I have not seen any. I can confidently say though that this library takes the safety of the community very seriously. I did have a scary encounter here back in the summer. I was getting some work done when the PA system came on and told everyone to evacuate the building immediately. Obviously, I don't take these things lightly and with the worst case scenario running through my mind I collected my things and left ASAP! As I was leaving police were already surrounding the building. The evacuation was calm and orderly. After going home and doing some research it turns out someone did put in a threat towards the library. Seeing how the situation was handled really affirmed my confidence in the competency of this library. I'm giving four stars because on a more recent visit I had a hard time finding a table to sit that had working outlets. Don't get me wrong, I walked past many tables with built-in outlets but every time I tried to plug in my laptop it unfortunately didn't work. I did finally find one all the way towards the back and was able to get some work done! It really is a grand library! It would be perfect if they ensured all offered amenities were always working properly. Other than that, I do love this library!

This review mostly pertains to stuff probably for younger kids however we enjoyed ourselves immensely. We went to the play area in the back before story time where they have Legos, a play area that includes cooking and fake food, lots of word books and cushy stools for kids to lay around and jump on. There's also electronic interactive tablet type things against the walls that I saw kids playing with which looked cool as well. We did the story time and it was quite interactive, the leader was super engaged, kind to the kids, really tried to get all the kids involved. Story time seems to be open for any age but it is recommended that you register online as there is a wait list before the event. When you register online, it asks for how many people in your party, just count the kids do not count the adults. That's the pro tip we were given once we arrived by the staff lol. I loved our experience and will be back for more story time (for my daughter not for me hahaha although I did enjoy the story and dances as well).

I am solely basing this on their youth area! If you are simply there to check out books it's fine…read more Not really a great space to stay and play. There's no designated play area and the couple of toys are kind of tucked away. We went in the late afternoon and it was pretty dead. I really hate to say this but the librarians didn't greet us or look our way at all when we came in. Definitely not a problem, but it didn't feel super welcoming like we are used to at other places even if it was just a smile acknowledgment.

The pros include: There is a wide variety of books for kids to check out. It's enough for them to pick out what they like and be happy with. There are 4 tablets at the tablet station. They have learning, educational games for them to keep busy. The kids space has wooden puzzles too if you don't want your kid to play on the tablets. Not a lot of kids during the evening hours. Bathrooms nearby kids section. Kids programs available monthly. Especially in the summer. The cons include: Small selection for adults. I have some trouble finding the books I need. No crafting area to make cool crafts. Not too many toys for kids, so my kids usually come for the tablets. And not too many computers to come and print things out.

I've never been disappointed; of course you have to wait a bit for your request to come in, but I've requested & received countless books & DVDs and it's rare if one isn't available.

They also have an engaging and well-planned children's section in addition to baby/toddler programs like storytime and gym time that my son has enjoyed. Friendly librarians in email and in person.

And lots of books, but I guess that goes without saying. Helpful, well-educated staff. Mostly I like bringing the kids so they can learn to use the library. I want them to understand that boredom is alleviated when the mind is engaged - TV and shopping aren't necessary when you can spend an afternoon discovering.

I've only been here once. While it doesn;t have as many amenities as the downtown branch and it's…read moresmaller than the eola branch this library does have one great thing going for it...It's actually quiet. When I walked in I felt like I was in an actual library because it was silent. If you need a quiet place to study this is the library to go to. The downtown one can sometimes be a zoo and the eola branch has a community center with kids going in and out. This is definitely the one library where it's quiet. Warning though, if it's your first time coming here make sure you google map it first because it's hidden away in the neighborhood and was pretty tough to find.
