A great library, I was able to stop in many times to participate in a couple zoom calls for…read moreinterviews and other work tasks! Nice and helpful staff and lots of great books and computers and other resources also!

VERY CLEAN MODERN LIBRARY…read more The library is part of the King County Library system and is located in the Burian City Hall mixed use structure which was built in 2009 and so it is a fairly new space. It also houses the City Council meeting room, which is currently being used for storage as the council has been meeting on-line since Covid. The library has many computers for members to use for job searches, email etc. You can also print stuff if you need to. When I was there I only saw a couple of people using the PCs out what must have been about 30 of them? The space is very bright with lots of natural light coming in through the windows. It has two floors and has an enclosed "Study Room" on the second floor, but really there are many places to sit, and of course, the library is very, very quiet. The first floor has a very nice children's section with small stools and tables suitable for kids. There are a variety of DVDs and CDs to borrow and of course an assortment of books, as well a large section devoted to Washington State and Seattle history! One of my favorite features is the Newspaper Magazine section. Just grab today's paper, or your favorite magazine and read all you want in a comfortable lounge like environment. No need to buy or borrow as long as you are inside the library. BTW, if you enjoyed my review or found it useful funny or cool, please don't hesitate to click the little button to say so, or better yet, go ahead and friend me. So go on! Press that button, and never miss a single one of my epic reviews in the Seattle area and beyond. Excelsior!

Looking for a new book to add to my reading pile, I stopped by Federal Way Library at about 1:30…read morep.m. on Saturday 9 March 2024. The parking lot had two lots that I saw. The first was parking around the road of a roundabout with a hoisted rocks art piece in the center. The second was a lot tucked behind and across from parking on one side of the roundabout. The entrance to the building was easy to spot and benches to the side of the entrance and in the entryway were in use by library patrons. Inside the entrance and to the right were water fountains, restrooms, and group rooms/spaces for different usage. There was abundant work space with table(s) and computer(s). Chairs/other seating was available throughout the library. In the non-fiction section I found the aisles labeled by approximate topic. Looking for something in finance/economics, I found the section in a second row of the stacks. One book on the restaurant industry from an operations perspective caught my eye, so I went with that one. Self check out stations were located across from the main walkway from the entrance into the library. Checking out was straightforward and both the computer and receipt printer had no issue(s). Librarian stations were located off to one side, opposite the side with the water fountains and multi-use rooms, closer to the entrance.

The Federal Way Public Library was a bit tricky to find at first since the sign is partially hidden…read moreby trees when approaching from one side. Once inside, it was quiet and calm with what seemed like a variety of random services available, though I didn't explore them in detail. The children's area is thoughtfully separated, making it a good stop for families. There were plenty of computers available, even on a weekend. Printing is affordable, with $1.50 of free credit per day and reasonable rates at $0.15 for black and white and $0.50 for color. Parking was no issue at all. It was spacious and easy to access. On a sunny day, the lot even felt a little scenic. Overall, it's a solid local library with a peaceful atmosphere. JY review
