I have been going to this library since I was Ram. Probably before that, honestly. I have never had…read morean issue with the staff, or the children that frequent the are. However, I feel that in comparison to some of the other libraries that they have a lesser selection of books, which is a bummer. But, you can just request books from other locales to be sent to you. This branch doesn't appear to become too crowded, so it seems to be a great space to utilize the free internet for research or whatever your needs are. Also, if I'm not mistaken, there are large room that are used for educational purposes, classes and the like.

I'm a bookworm and proud of it. (I hope that fact won't make my review impartial! Nor the fact that…read moremy 'heavy user' status has me known by name by the check-out staff...) I visit this library at least once a week, if not twice, and everyone on staff there is friendly and welcoming (props to Mr. S especially!) This place is tricked out. Wifi available, plenty of computers, reasonable hours (no Sundays since the '09 budget cuts, sadly), and good selection of magazines; what more could you want? The facility and its bathrooms are clean and well maintained. It has self-checkout, and a 'help yourself' shelf for your hold items. The only thing I might ask for is a bigger selection of titles at this branch. Often, newer books are only in the bigger branches. But hey, I guess that is what the iPhone catalog app for placing holds is for!

With the exception of children and some adults in the front entry / lobby, as they go up and down the stairs to the children and teens area upstairs. There are many comfortable seating options if you have a lot of work or reading to do. The staff are always helpful and friendly, and there are a surprising number of computers available for a library of this size. The upstairs floor is only for children and teens & the space is really bright and cheerful, inviting. They have a separate large computer lab with at least 10 computers, but I think it requires a group reservation. They also have a very large conference room that would comfortably host 40 people. There are a lot of community & library events and committees and organizations that meet here. The library has a lot of active community members on their friends of the library team, as well as other groups. Since so much space is dedicated to the computer lab and large conference room, the three study rooms are frequently booked ahead of time ... but they are very nice, clean and spacious. The restrooms are pretty clean and don't require a key from the desk. The library also has a water bottle filler .

We have been to a few libraries for story time and Oxon Hill is hands down the best. They do a great job picking books that engage the kiddos. Plus the music/movement breaks are always on point. The staff is always friendly, engaging, and welcoming. I adore this library and highly recommend their story time for the little humans. Let me also add that they have a great Children's book section.

I love how when you first walk in there is a board for information and community events. It appears to be pretty spacious with lots of computers to work on.

Now that I now where it is, I'll be checking to see if they have toddler time for my little. Librarians are the best, as always, and I will definitely be back now that I know where it is.

When you make your way up the stairs, you have young adult, large-print, audio/dvds, as well as fiction books. If you continue to walk ahead, it is the children's section, with books for toddlers and more for young adult readers. The selection of books are quite limited, so I am wondering if there will ever be more added to the collection anytime soon. There are several computers you can also use with an ID, either to check your email or to play online games. Some study rooms are also upstairs that you can also reserve, but there were plenty of tables and individual desks that were available.

Comparing PGCC to the 4-year university I'm at now makes all of the problems I previously had with…read morethem insignificant. Yes, their nursing program was over-saturated (too many applicants, not enough advisors), but it ran like a well-oiled machine regardless. In my current school, my advisor registered me late and almost signed me up for a course I'd already taken, which I had to find out for myself halfway through the semester. They didn't depend on me to supervise every step of every transition like switching majors the way other universities do. Soooo much information is available in your student portal that I almost never had to step foot in the admin hall (though as a new student, navigating their sites was like entering a labyrinth). I was shocked to learn having a waiting list was not a universal thing and they actually notify you once a spot opens, as opposed to my current school who makes you log in and check several times a day... every day... and then still gives unspecific error messages. They use Canvas which has SIGNIFICANTLY less issues than Blackboard. Yes, I have had some troublesome professors but every issue was handled beautifully by the administration, and even so it only came to this point twice. Some of the best teachers I've ever had the blessing to encounter are tucked away in here. I miss my professors, my peers, the atmosphere, I miss everything! I'm honestly considering dropping my Bachelor's just to go back to PGCC and finish my ADN. When it comes to college, bigger is not always better. PG is not perfect but they were deemed best school in MD to get your RN for a reason.

I almost registered for classes that I did not need more than once and wasted money, due to incorrect academic advising information. You will have to do your own homework and research when inquiring about degree program information here because if you don't you could potentially be misguided. Majority of the administrators here seem highly irritated, like they don't want to be there or help you. I'd say the education is great here but do your own research for degree program info, scholarships and etc!!! Great education here but not the best administrative support for students in majority of the departments here unfortunately!
