This is my first time stopping by this library and it has instantly become a new favorite study…read morespot for sure. As soon as you step into the library, there is a cute little coffee shop called Post Coffee. It is modern, has lots of seating, and is playing soothing music in the background. The library is also super modern, with LOTS of seating options. There are so many different chairs and tables to pick from so each person can find their perfect fit. There are also charging outlets everywhere which is something I look for when i'm studying. There is a small "cubical" space where there are little dividers between each area so you can focus on your own work without getting distracted from the person next to you. There is also a computer area, study rooms, and an open area. Lastly, there is lots of parking so you don't have to park on street or far away!

We attend many music concerts, such at Mr. Stinky Feet Christmas show in Dec 2011 and toddler story time. I love the toddler story time which has a great story teller and fun crafts afterwards. My son is 3, and too old for this group but it is my favorite compared to the Pre-K story time, which we did not enjoy as much. The person whom they have story tell for Pre-K story time is not as good or entertaining for the kiddos. They offer great selection of books, CDs and DVDs too, for both kids and adults. I have not been able to join in on any of the adult classes or activities but I've heard they are also great. Overall, I highly recommend this library to anyone in the area looking for some free and fun things to do for yourself or your child!

Libraries are great. I think most people have fond memories of visiting as kids and if you're like…read moreme, those memories are very suburban. The libraries I grew up visiting had 90s flair, and while amazing spaces that kept me entertained all summer long, they didn't have the grandeur of an iconic inner city library - like this one. The first time I stepped foot in here as a young adult I was in awe. It's just a gorgeous building, and incredible atmosphere to sit and read. The parking garage is set up to look like a bookshelf which I think is cute, and I love how you can just get lost in here and enjoy the space. It just FEELS like a library which sounds dumb but is true. What pushes this into five star territory for me though is the rooftop terrace. On a nice day there really isn't a better spot for an urban picnic.

This review is for the Central Library location's telephone customer service person…read more I called with a simple question about how to navigate the web site and the person would not help me unless I provided my library card number, which I did not have readily available. They then asked for my date of birth, which I don't provide on the phone for security purposes, unless of course it's my bank or credit card company. Needless to say, this person refused to help me and said she was ending the call. Please note that I called a different branch and got all the help I needed, including courteous customer service.

The Midwest Genealogy Center is a gem for those interested in their family histories. I can spend…read morehours at a time and not know where the time went. The library has an outstanding collection of genealogical resources and through a partnership with the Family History Library in Salt Lake, the resources available are nearly endless. You also have access to electronic resources through Ancestry Library Edition while you are on-site. What I like best is the layout of the library. It has a very open feel, complimented by high windows that allow a lot of sunlight to come in. There are many different working configurations...desks, tables, chairs and sofas. I find that this library is much more comfortable than most and I'll drive the 30 minutes to do my research here rather than working from a closer library. Not sure where to start? The Midwest Genealogy Center offers several classes for all levels of amateur genealogists. You can also arrange a consultation with a volunteer genealogist to help you overcome any research barriers. If you have any interest at all in genealogy, you have to check out the Midwest Genealogy Center!
