I was able to find a comfortable study carrel in the back where I set up my laptops to charge and then set down to work. Two hours of emails later, it's time to move on to the next stop. During that time, I was able to make a Zoom conference without disturbing anyone. A few librarians walking around but it's a quiet library. Fiction, non-fiction, reference, lots of DVDs available to borrow. You do not need to be a resident of the area to use the library or the wifi, but you have to be in order to borrow materials.

Unless you're trying to build a personal library I do not understand why people buy their books. Why not take advantage of those tax dollars you're paying?

I find it very strange that they would intentionally make it harder than need be to support the…read morelibrary. I tried to donate a couple of hundred dollars worth of books to the library - most of them hard cover - all of them in excellent condition. After lugging the books into the library, I was informed that I could not donate books at the library (they would not accept them at the main library location). I had to call so-and-so and make arrangements to donate the books at another location. This was the last time I'll try to donate to the Kingsport Library.

It's so nice to see I'm not the only bookie out here lol. The parking was easy and organized. The book sale itself was packed but they had so many wonderful volunteers helping to steer the crowd, it was pretty seamless. They even had volunteers walking around asking if they could take your books and put them on a table to hold for you so you could keep shopping comfortably. it was great! The library has multiple stories and was very clean and quiet. I will absolutely be back soon!!
