With FREE classes for kids and adults (AND the obvious -- a selection of books,) you can't beat it. Authors, book club, photography, writing classes, themed children story time, etc. We take advantage of all the activities, especially during winter! If you have a little one there is a mix of fun from Music & Movement, Play Group, Story Time (for different age groups) and more. The classes are pretty full, so there is success in numbers. The staff is friendly, happy and helpful, so that keeps me coming back. Bravo for being a fantastic spot for the community, beyond books and resources.

The library shelves are always very organized and it's really easy to find what your looking for whether it's a book, Movie, and or CD. The library is always well clean and sanitized. It's also in a good location in my opinion as I ride public transportation and there is two buses that go past the library which is a plus. I also think they have good hours as well. I would recommend this library to anyone if your looking for a good library.

A great play area with train table, kitchen area, light table and other interactive toys for kids. There are computers for kid use. Along with other play are spread through the library. Near the circulation desk in the childrens section They have a list of all their programs which was diverse and for many ages. There is a pet Guinea pig.

This is a branch of the Akron Summit County System. There is a nice Children's area with a little…read morepuppet theater and even a turtle! The Children's magazine selection is varied and large, you can find something for all ages from toddler to junior high. The teen area is not large (like all the branches, there is not a ton of space) but is very nicely labeled and new books are clearly displayed. There is an assortment of books on CD and playaways which I use extensively for my long commute. The playaways can be used in the car with an adaptor but I mainly use them to stave off boredom while I exercise. There is a rather extensive collection of DVDs. I am always surprised that even more people don't take advantage of everything our local libraries have to offer. A "Sizzler" section of DVDs are on display, Simply, these are the newest releases. They circulate for 3 days instead of 7. The library also has popular TV series ranging from old classics like Seinfeld and Mash to current favorites like The Vampire Diaries and Fringe. If the branch does not have an item you want, they are happy to order it from another location. Usually this takes 2 days. There are various programs offered throughout the year. Things like computer skills, book clubs, author visits, local speakers, and story times are always well-attended. Twice a year the library holds the Book Sale. This is a fantastic way to procure materials at fantastic prices. I often buy books here for my school's library. Often there are donations of new books. The staff is extremely helpful but you have to approach them at the main desk. Usually there is not a wait to check out, but at certain times, you may have to wait a few minutes. Books circulate for 2 weeks and you can renew items up to 2 times, Renewing is easy now as it can be done on line but you can still call if you prefer. People don't realize how lucky we are in America to have such wonderful public libraries.
