The person who staffs it is very…read moreknowledgeable and also offers different hands on program on Fridays which i love to attend since I always love learning something new. I have been making appointments to use the maker space to make items that will be sold by my Garden Club. I have also made lawn signs that have information regarding a garden we maintain in our town. I have also designed artwork to sublimate on shirts for a girls trip. The prices for using supplies are very reasonable and you can also bring your own items to use. This is a great space offered by the Library and would not be as successful if the staff person was not as knowledgeable as he is.

In…read moreseeking out a copy of a specific reference book, I was assisted by Shari Merrill, Head of Adult Services. She went above and beyond the call of duty in helping me to find exactly what I needed and and did it in a cheerful and friendly way. She tracked down the book I wanted, and then scanned maps within it. She next found an additional resource I was unaware of, and made photocopies of its content. As a result, I had an excellent experience at Newtown's beautiful library and came away extremely happy. Fantastic job, Shari!

I love the fact that the library is able to offer us online services, different online reading apps, the hold & pick up in person or the drive up service.

This is truly rural Connecticut. The library is a large facility. Clean, quiet, modern.

My only complaint is that the parking lot is small. My Sprinter van was challenged. I don't know how people with big vehicles would do here, especially in the winter.
