Great children's area!…read more We were in the area and decided to stop by and visit. The library is open on a Sunday which is rare for most libraries. They have a spacious children's area with lots of books and areas to play. There was a giant boat, aquarium with colorful fish, interactive table, plus a great play area for children six and under. My kids loved all the stuff to do in the play room and I loved that the door was shut so they wouldn't interrupt others in the library. They also have a family bathroom that is perfect for kids just starting to potty train.

I know a good library when I see it. This is a beautiful…read morelibrary. Seriously, this marble beauty and its giant pillars will catch your eye immediately. Under the CLEVE-NET system of library cards, you can use your library card at several Ohio institutions, including this one. This library is two floors, on the newer side and pristine. For a small town like Vermilion, you may not expect such a big, beautiful library like this one. But it's really one of my favorite ones I've seen in Ohio. Great selection of items, helpful staff and in-depth attention to sanitizing procedures during COVID. There's even a super cute sailboat in the kids section they can play in during regular times. But if you're a library person like I am, this one should be on tour list. It's a beaut!

There is a nice open area on the first floor where you can meet with friends and converse or just enjoy nature from the large windows.

I spend more hours than I can could here as a child and teenager, and the librarians here (Mrs. Dibling!) are one of the reasons why I'm the voracious reader I am today. Too bad budget cuts have caused them to close on Fridays and Sundays. Still, their reduced hours still have them open more than a lot of libraries in similarly-sized towns in California. Pity.

The facilities are nice and they have a separate area for young adults that's apart from the kids which I always think is important. As far as online goes, they are part of the Ohio Digital Library so you get access to everything through Overdrive online, which is great. They seem to have quite a few activities going on all of the time like tutoring from BGSU students for reading for kids, seniors activities, story time for children, etc.

The library I grew up with always had tiny asian kids running around causing a raucus (I was one of them, till age 10). Nevertheless, I was really impressed as I drove up to this beautiful glass building with regal architecture (for Perrysburg, anyhow). There are several dropboxes in the front of the building guided by the driveway. Why leave your car in 19 degree weather? Inside the building, it's clean and well-lit, and the room is lined with plenty of places to sit. Along with plushy chairs, there are neat little booths all around that you can sit in to do some work. The children's section takes up about half the main floor. I haven't ventured in there to claim MY Harry Potter, but it looks impressive and spacey. There are also several computers that are surprisingly not ancient. What surprised me most about this library was it's vast, up-to-date DVD collection. There's no limit on how many DVDs you can check out, and you can hold it for 1 week. You can also check out books for up to 4 weeks, which is pretty amazing. I remember the good old days when books can be borrowed for only 2. The staff is made up of friendly old women and nerdy clerks. I love this library. Sign out of facebook and check it out, Perrysburgers.
