It is small, and sometimes I feel like the elevator is going to break down while I'm in it (also the elevator door opens before it touches the ground) but overall it's a cute.. small town library. They have most of the popular books, and a nice study area. They do community events, and always have some kind of raffle. The library card is free. They have a book drop box for when they aren't open. It's in the middle of down town enterprises and it's a convenient and beautiful establishment for the area. I go there quite often to find books.

We visited Troy University's Rosa Parks Museum in Montgomery, AL on Jan 7, 2026 as part of Road…read moreScholar's "The Civil Rights Movement - Atlanta, Montgomery, Selma, Birmingham" program. As the name indicates, this museum is entirely about the titular civil rights icon. Tickets were covered by our program. We spent less than an hour here, in part because we got two other sites to visit in our day's itinerary. Our tour guide informed us that photography was not allowed inside the exhibition rooms. (Judging by the content on this business listing, that didn't stop other visitors from taking photos.) In the first room, we saw a short film that summarizes the segregation in Montgomery prior to Parks' historic act. After that, we went another room and were standing in front of a bus modeled after the one that Parks boarded and refused to give up her seat. The bus's windows serves as screens for another short film that re-enacted the historic moment. The dialogue is boosted by surround sound all over the room so that visitors could feel what it was like at that moment. After that, we went into the third and final room of exhibits showing what happened after Parks' arrest and its impact on the Civil Rights Movement. I recalled life-size figures, a model of a 1950s car and dimmed lighting. (Many thanks to Lulu Wang and her article "Rosa Parks Museum: Take You Back to 1955, Montgomery, AL" in medium.com for helping with my recollections.) The museum is clearly focused on Rosa Parks the civil rights icon, but not Rosa Parks the person, family member and human being. To my recollection, there was little mention about her life before and after the bus boycott (and the larger Civil Rights Movement). Nor was there a mention of the asteroid named after her: 284996 Rosaparks. I learnt about that from a "Doctor Who" episode (series 11, episode 3, titled "Rosa"). I don't recall if the exhibits mention of Parks' prior encounter with the bus driver James Blake 12 years earlier. After paying her fare at the front entrance, she tried to enter through the back entrance. But Blake drove off without her. Some accounts claimed that she refused to board. It'd be nice to know what's the museum's take on that incident. Of the three Montgomery mini-sites about the Civil Rights movement - the other two being the Civil Rights Memorial Center and the Freedom Rides Museum - the Rosa Parks museum is the smallest in space and content, and the only one that does not allow photography. I was the least happy with it. It's certainly worth the visit if done in conjunction with the Civil Rights Memorial Center and the Freedom Rides Museum, both of which are within walking distance. In addition to that, go see the Rosa Parks statue at the Rosa Parks Bus Stop on Court Square, which is also within walking distance.

So if you are working on your laptop be sure it is fully charged. But even if it isn't there usually aren't too many people here so you can get a table near an outlet. They have several tables that are "designated laptop tables" due to the limited number of outlets available. Overall there isn't much traffic in this library compared to the others nearby which is why I prefer it. Hope this helps!

Although, it's one of the smaller libraries in the area, the friendly staff and homey ambiance make it worth the visit. The hours of operation need to be updated on the Yelp page because it says they close at five but it doesn't. It would be strange that they would close at five when story time for kids after school doesn't start until four. The children's area is well-stocked with lots of toys and 3 computers for kids games. In the early evening around 3 o'clock to four it's not too busy after school. But once 5 o'clock hits that's when it starts getting a little bit busier and they only have eight adult computer stations so if you need one I would get there a little bit earlier. They have a self checkout station, which is really nice because it teaches kids to be responsible with their books. They do have some fun things lined up for the summer, so check out the public library website or stop by to see their schedule. My daughter and I really enjoyed this vibrating a try to go at least once a week it's always very nice.
