It had the correct address on it and I called to find out what happened and how to prevent this from happening again. Mary Isome couldn't have been more rude, condescending and unhelpful. She said that it didn't happen. I have proof that it did! I am going to have to transition to all ACH payments or something. The USPS is not reliable at all. I can't be the only person that has had issues with the Alabaster AL USPS. Why is Mary Isome still employed there?

There's plenty of parking and also handicap accessible. I'm sure my organization will continue to host events here.

They used the upstairs area, they do have an elevator, as the boutiques area. Lot's of vendors and plenty of room to move around without feeling like your were on top of someone. They used an area around the staircase as the bookstore. Anything Bible or Bible study related can be found there, along with books written by people who have had experiences and testimonial books We had one lady in my group that needed some assistance and the center offered a wheelchair from somewhere. They made us feel welcome and, it seems, we will be returning.

The water was beautiful and the swimming areas are clean and fun for kids. The creamery doesn't allow pets inside ( i agree with that ) but when I joked with staff about having to leave my dog outside while I bought ice-cream they quickly offered her a Pup Cup of cream!! I was blown away! The open air train ride was fabulous! $1 per person one way or $2 round trip. They also allow your pet to ride with you!! The hiking trails were clearly marked and well maintained. I recommend bug spray as it is still very woodsy. The country store had essentials and souvenirs. We did not camp here due to the smaller camp sites and close proximity to other campers. We prefer the more open campground lay outs but would consider it during a less crowded season. The bath house was very clean! We plan to go back and attend trade days!

This is hands down one of our favorite libraries!…read more There's a ton of something for EVERYONE! They have teens section, kids section, a theatre I'm talking the works but the family section is why I'd say it's the BEST! The family section features soo baby things to do. For breastfeeding moms, there's a nursery for privacy. For moms with littles, there's an outside play area that's included. There's also classes for littles but register in advance because they do fill up. They also have tons of things to do throughout the month and a cute brochure to take home so you know what's happening when. Highly recommend (even if you're not a local and just stopping by).

Why am I giving this library a 2. For what I saw this morning . 10/5/2024 at 9 0'clock in the…read moremorning. I just came from their book sale. Before they opened a very rude woman berated a elderly woman. She was telling her that she should park by the woods instead of the library parking. The elderly woman told her twice I can't walk that far. Me and my husband parked in the library parking. If they would have did me that way I would have said bye. I don't have to spend my money here nor my time. It was rude and uncalled for!! Is this how you treat older people Alabaster?? Finally the third time she said you can park up here. Why did you make a big deal about it anyways. She was elderly!! She said not once but three times she couldn't walk that far. It was ridiculous and this is the Alabaster you try to say is a good place to live ha! I bought a few books but I'm honestly rethinking going to another one in the future if this is how your employees act. Your piney woods festival was a joke and has been for awhile. You barely had participants . Quit hounding older people and quit the nonsense. We were at the book sale under less than 10 min. Pretty sure the older lady wouldn't have been there for long either. I think I'm done with the rudeness of the employees here. You can rebuild another one all you like. Your employees are rude!!!

Many…read morebooks the branch doesn't have can be requested from other libraries in Shelby County and picked up and returned at one's preferred branch. There is a handy app to accompany one's library card and keep track of things. The checkout time lengths are generous. I also appreciate the Junior Librarian program the library hosts to teach kids skills and provide volunteer hours. The Friends of the Library, a nongovernmental, separate supportive organization that hosts the biannual book sale and other fundraisers to enhance the library's offerings, has an ongoing sale in a little closet behind the fiction section where I've found several vintage books to add to my collection at home. The members of the Friends are upstanding people with generous hearts. I recently became a Friend.

I moved to Jefferson County so I can no longer take out books, but I still go to buy some books and look at this gorgeous corner where you can just sit in the super comfy chair and read. It's very quiet here in this section. There's also a very short nature walk in behind the library. There's not too much literary fiction or highbrow stuff here but a lot of very popular authors. They do the best they can with the money they get from the county. And that isn't much.:(
