    LOVE. LOVE. LOVE…read more 8 Stars. (Absolutely unrelated to the fact that the library houses my graduate thesis.) Baker Berry Library is the perfect union of old & new. Old: Baker Library New: Berry Library (Added on later.) Highlights -- * Baker Tower: Centrally located on Dartmouth College's campus, the tower offers the best views of Hanover, New Hampshire. * Borrow Direct: Access to the library collections at Brown, Columbia, Cornell, University of Pennsylvania, Princeton & Yale. (Why isn't Harvard included?) * Current Periodicals Room: Over 1,000 current issues of science, social science, humanities, & general interest journals. * Evans Map Room: No excuses for bare walls!! * Jones Media Center: My source of entertainment between partying... I mean, studying. Boasts over 5,000 videotapes and 1,000 DVDs. * Book Arts Workshop: The outlet for my creative juices between partying... I mean, studying. * The Tower Room: Dim lights, dark wood & leather seats - Study in classic New England elegance. (Between partying.) * Novak Cafe: Where to grab a quick bite. (On my way to partying.) I want to give Baker Berry 10 stars, but the blitz terminals aren't sanitized frequently enough (at all??) & operating hours should extend to midnight at least. How many times did I try to return my Animal House & Sports Night DVDs en route to frat row, only to be denied?! ...I mean, where am I supposed to study at 11:30 on a Friday night?? Maybe I need a copy of Heidegger's Kant and the Problem of Metaphysics & maybe I need it at a half past 11!

    This is a beautiful building. I love the colonial architecture on the outside, but it's really the…read morethemed rooms inside that make this a special space. My friend goes to Dartmouth and gave me a tour of this main building on Campus. I was not expecting the building to be very different inside. There are multiple study area: a traditional dark oak room with chandeliers, a more modern and open study area with lots of light, and a basement area with a large mural. They also have a side room that's in memory of Dr. Seuss, who was an alumni at Dartmouth.

    Today's "office" was the Brattleboro library. Easy, clean, comfortable…read more I found a nice spot on the upper floor where I was undisturbed for five hours of emails, quiet Zoom meetings and perhaps a few Yelp reviews got cranked out in between here and there. The library is quite modern on the inside despite being in an older and refined building. A large collection of books including the usual fiction, non-fiction, reference and periodicals. Friendly and helpful staff who helped me get settled. And a free wifi that worked very well. Street parking with meters and you're expected to find a different space after two hours. Okay, I did that. [Review 18442 overall - 42 in Vermont - 1964 of 2022.]

    Thanks Jerry. My experience there was really unfortunate. I recieved a threatening notice that…read moreVermont law allowed for a fine of up to $400. for a book that was not returned. There was no further explanation offered, no further elaboration, or justification for that amount. That is the basis of my Yelp. The day I got the notice, I was, ironically, driving to Boston to return books to both the Boston Public Library, and a university library. When I returned to Brattleboro and saw the notice, I came in inquire about the threatening tone of the note. I was assured by reference librarian the that they only sent that after an initial notice had been ignored, and that fine amount was encoded in Vermont law. I had not recieved any prior notice and I asked if there was a record that the first notice was indeed sent to me. The reference librarian then took me back to the office behind the main desk. A woman there looked up my account and told both of us that there had, in fact, been no prior notice sent. There had indeed been an error. I love the charm of the library, but I woud not assume people are out to harm it or inflict financial strain on it. I am curious to know how anyone (particularly a legislator) thought $400 was a good idea, or why it would be used as an incentive to get a book back? That's where I think $25 would do the trick. It seems like overkill and unecessarily threatening.
