    Although this library is small, it recently got an expansion about one year ago. Although it never…read morehad an elevator, it now has one. It has 2 real floors that all people can visit and use to take out books. It has 3 computers that can connect you to the internet. If you are out of the area and don't have a library card, you can pick up a temporary 30 minute pass to allow you to log-on. One floor is all mostly adult fiction/nonfiction, and the other floor is mostly children. This place does have two entrances though, so plan your time-frame accordingly. You can park as on street parking(not advised to park accross the street, if planning to use computers), or you can park in their 6-7 car parking lot. They now have one public bathroom that most people now know about(across from magazine rack near elevator). If you need to use it, it is always clean and well-maintained by those planning to use it. (It has paper-towels, but no blow-driers.) As for employees at this library, although they have a few paid workers who can help at the main check-out desk, most of their employment staff are volunteers. And when you figure into the equation of the town this library is in, I like this library being that it is close to me and my home. Thanks a lot; Never a problem here.

I told staff that I wanted to check that book out. They inquired as to whether I had a library card. I said that I did but not on my person, but I could tell them my library number, and that I had just not 30 seconds before handed the two books to one of the staff asking for my card. I was then asked if I had a driver's license. I placed the book back on the the shelf and walked out. I have heard that the staff at this library is unfriendly. I won't go back and will go out of my way to avoid it.

    Here's a mediocre sized library I like to go to, whenever I'm in town and need a useful library…read more It's got a lot of books(one side being the adult fiction, the other being children's books). Nonfiction isn't prominent at all in this place. It does though, have a wide variety of Internet-connected computers(which I believe, make up for this "missing puzzle-piece"!)(Oh yeah, I almost forgot to tell you, they have over 12 Internet-connected computers, along with 2 non-Internet computers for the kids to use, as you see when you walk through the 2 electric sliding glass doors). If you need to use a restroom, there is one here. If you stand over near the flexible folding wall, you'll notice the edge of the men's room door creeping above(there are two separate rooms). I've found a problem there, make sure to wear only one additional layer of clothing over-top of what would be normal casual wear, as these rooms get awful cool very quickly. Need a drink/sip of water to wet your tongue? Yeah, they got a water-fountain too(over between the two restrooms)! This is one of the only library locations in the area to have a water-fountain available. Water is good and cold, no matter what time of year you sip it! Employees here are well-trained in the processes, and can help with almost anything. You can tell, after a wide variety of times, that they know how to "work" for their money! Between fixing up adding money for using their printer(computer printer) to helping people find books to you-name-it, these employees know their jobs mean more than just being "paid by the hour." As a mere note: This place was the former RENOVATED LOCATION to the former Ponderosa Steakhouse, which had closed down in the 1990s(that could very well be the reason why this place has the water-fountains available). When funding became not such a concern, this library moved from a Morton Blvd location to the current place in the mid-2000s.

    The cutest little village library that ever was…read more Yes, its big sister in Rhinebeck is certainly a great size and has plenty going on. But for this location, can't beat it. There is pretty much nothing left in Rhinecliff except the hotel in case you need a place to hang out for a bit. Today I found myself with a ride to the train station two hours earlier than I needed, so I got dropped off at the library. The librarian cranked up the heat for me, showed me around and I had complete peace and quiet to get some work done with their WiFi and tables. Much more comfortable than the train station! There was even a coffee/hot water station ($1 donation suggested- please do give them some love!) which I took advantage of to enjoy a coffee while working. There seems to be a big hall where they likely do events and of course they are part of the mid hudson library branches so you can borrow and get deliveries of books from any of the area libraries. As I live closer to the Rhinebeck library I hadn't made it to this one but I was impressed by the lovely space close to the train station- a short walk even with my luggage. I will likely come back to just do some work because it's quieter than the Rhinebeck location and less crowded.

    Great library!! Nice section for kids. Computers w Internet, fax, printer, etc. everything you need…read morein a historic building with lots of character. Also make your own coffee while you browse books. A real neighborhood library.
