Adj: beautiful library with lots of natural lights…read more What a nice library in the middle of nowhere, or so it seems. Technically in the Santa Cruz mountains and just down the street from Henry Cowell State Park, this library is very architecturally impressive. The inside has high ceilings and lots of windows up high to let in a lot of natural light. The whole space is bathed in sunlight. The children's section is so colorful and fun. There are several tippees for kids to read inside, what an innovative and cozy way to incorporate Native American culture into the kids area. There's plenty of desk for working and seating throughout the library for quiet reading too. There's also a seed library near the entrance and a big meeting room towards the back. There's currently an exhibit of individual's life stories who's been through homelessness hardships, very moving testimonies of the resilience of the human spirit. There's also lovely local art work throughout the library, and of course shelves upon shelves of books for all ages. Overall, this library is a wonderful local resource and a great community meeting place for intellectual exchange and knowledge acquisition.

I…read more came here from San Jose Airport to get a library card so I can access thier wi-fi should my phone run out of signal or battery. I had a heavy duffle bag and my airbnb wasnt available til 3pm. But ai had no issues - even when i went to wander the shelves. As long as I kept my duffle bag in sight, I was all good. The lady at the front desk was very helpful and I was able to secure a library card within minutes. Then, she helped me find a book I was looking for. The library is small but mighty, centered on community - providing a safe space for patrons to read, rest, check out books and surf the web. They even have brochures of services should someone who is un-house needs help. and they have a great book selection. I was able to sit and read for a bit before continuing on my adventure of exploring this town. Thank you to the Felton library for the nice respite.

Right in the front entrance hall there are free books and magazines, for whoever wants one. Before Covid, I use to drop by on occasion. Now, not so much.

My favorite part was that they have a decent selection of Spanish books being that I'm trying to teach my baby how to read in Spanish first.

There's computers on every floor so you're almost guaranteed to find an open one! There's a quiet floor upstairs and a less quiet main floor. There's also a bottom floor that's best for group studying and is the least quiet. You can also reserve study rooms on the top and bottom floors. My favorite place to study is the back room of the main floor. Since this place seriously lacks outlets, this room is perfect because there's like, 8 outlets per table. However, it's really hard to find a table. I think it's everyone's favorite place :b

Generally the library treats me…read morereally well, providing me with cozy chairs that I can construct into a bed for napping time in between classes, plenty of computers available if I am too lazy to tote my laptop around all day and most of the time the textbooks on reserve are actually available for check-out when I need them. However, it is finals week and this place has turned into a hell hole. UGH! All of a sudden you notice that this library with its 3 small levels just cannot house all the students on campus. Granted, we have another library, but that one is partially under construction and way out there in the woods. It's too dark on campus to stumble my way over there! So here I am trying to find a spot that has not only a chair in front of it, but also an available - READ AVAILABLE - outlet for my laptop. Impossible. Finally I cram myself into a group of 6 people at a table that is meant for 4. And hallelujah, one of the students was awesome enough to bring a power strip. There is power for everyone's primary study tools! Yay! Except for he just left... Crap. Time to stop yelping and looking at the books instead. Get some more outlets and chairs, we pay enough to come here!
