The facilities are nice and they have a separate area for young adults that's apart from the kids which I always think is important. As far as online goes, they are part of the Ohio Digital Library so you get access to everything through Overdrive online, which is great. They seem to have quite a few activities going on all of the time like tutoring from BGSU students for reading for kids, seniors activities, story time for children, etc.

I spend more hours than I can could here as a child and teenager, and the librarians here (Mrs. Dibling!) are one of the reasons why I'm the voracious reader I am today.

This library is located on the shores of the River Raisin. During the early spring, you can see the sugaring taking place at the nearby Navarre-Anderson Trading Post.

There are many cultural events that take place here, such as jazz concerts, movies, etc. I'm glad I found this branch of the library!
