    Sachem Public Library - A coffee spot inside the library? Amazing!

    Call me a weirdo or old fashioned or something else (no expletives) but I just love a good library…read more Growing up on Long Island in Nassau County had me frequenting one (or two) specific locations, though I had popped into other book havens within the area and always found them comforting. Though I never really had the chance to enter a Suffolk County library until I moved to Ronkonkoma and learned that my home library is the media Mecca that is Sachem. If you're at all familiar with the Best of LI awards that are divvied out each year, then you'll know that Sachem Public Library has almost exclusively won this accolade over the past decade. I honestly never cared too much about this fact because Sachem seemed so far, but now my newish abode is only 5 minutes away from this superb book spot. Even before I ever entered Sachem Library's doors I was already impressed. That's because I feared it would take some time to get a library card with my change of address and needing an updated license. Nope! Sachem allows you to register for a library card on their website and then they'll send you this little key chain library card tag to your home. I was amazed by this, and already excitedly looking forward to my first trip there. This came over the summer when they were in full swing of their reading programs, both for kids and adults. Even though the event was halfway over, I was able to easily sign up and was given a little welcome bag and a chance to win some prizes for my reading. Unfortunately, I was a little too busy this past summer to read at a speedy clip (wedding planning will do that to you), but this just added to the enjoyment of Sachem. When actually exploring the interior and what Sachem has to offer, there are tons of books, movies, video games, and programs available. I'm also massively impressed with Suffolk County's digital borrowing program over Nassau as well as what's out there to be inter-loaned from other Suffolk libraries to Sachem. My first trip there was to actually pick up a couple of movies I had ordered and came in for pickup quite quickly. That trip, the summer sign up, and my experiences since have also all resulted in friendly staff and a desire to return again and again. Overall, maybe libraries are a little outdated or they feel like something you haven't visited in years, but I promise you that Sachem Public Library has so much to offer (I forgot to mention the beautiful serene garden across the parking lot that you can walk through and read in!). It's easy to see why Sachem wins awards each year and effortlessly puts other libraries to shame (like my hometown one, sorry not sorry). So consider this library weirdo somebody who will continue to love Sachem.

    Yet another beautiful library in Suffolk County. This one is Stamp #13 in my Suffolk County Public…read moreLibraries 2023 Summer Tour.

    Here's the Scoop: Registered for my honey and I to attend a drivers safety course. The course began…read moreat 9am in their new location. Their new location has much more space and they have really utilized the space well. The room for our class was large and had comfortable seating. They are sticklers for rules and timeframes. Many of us arrived 10 minutes early the way the letter directed us to but they wouldn't let us in until 9am on the dot. Wow! That was unbelievable. The guard stood at the door looking menacing barking and stating you have to wait! Everyone was perplexed because the instructor stated late comers would not be admitted to the class. What a mess. I think the library needs to rethink how they approach people who register for classes in the library. Overall a quick walkthrough of the library was pleasant. Bathrooms are very clean and smell clean. I don't know if the pressure of the crowd early in the morning intimidated the worker or guard but some employee training needs to happen there because it was ridiculous. I do like the layout of the new library and receptacles for different collections in the lobby. Once they've completely moved in I think it'll be awesome.

    Staff is too loud the librarian had an attitude with me I don't even wanna come back here again…read morevery unfriendly the librarians and unprofessional for no reason I ask the Librarian to help make change she denied and laughed at me I'm done here

The Children's Library…read moreis a standout --it's warm, inviting, and filled with resources to spark curiosity and learning. One of the highlights for us is their collection of Tonie boxes and individual Tonies available for borrowing. These are such a creative and engaging way for kids to enjoy stories and songs, and it's wonderful to have the opportunity to explore them before committing to buy on our own. The library also offers a great lineup of kids' programs that are perfect for little ones aged 2-5. From interactive read-along sessions to holiday-themed events, the programs are thoughtfully designed to keep young minds engaged while making learning fun. My 3 year old loves coming to this library and I look forward to taking her :)
