This library is NOT bike friendly. No common sense going on here. On a rainy day I parked my loaded…read morebike under the eave so it wouldn't get wet. I was on a bike tour (this means I was traveling by bike since I know you locals don't know about bike tours). The bike was completely out of the way of everyone. Common sense told me not to park it at the rack where the rain would soak my clothing, sleeping bag, etc. 2 hrs and 45 min later one of the staff told me I had to move it because where it was (any place but at the rack) was prohibited. I was informed that my bike was "vandalizing" the BRICK WALL. No lie - she and then the manager actually said this with straight faces. I asked for the manager. She came and the dance had to be played again. When I asked her to show me the damage the best she could do was give me a blank stare. Yet another American moving along in life as a zombie, doing as she's told just so she can have an undeserved pension in 20 yrs. Since she couldn't concieve of following common sense instead of rules, I gathered my things and left. However, while I waited for the rain to subside before taking off on my steed, within 10 minutes of each other, 2 employees came outside to check on me. They pretended to be doing something else, but it was obvious why they'd come out. The 2nd one even lied to me about it. The pretentiousness of this library doesn't match the state of the city it lies in. You'd think these people would have better things to do than to focus all their energy on a bike minding its own business leaning against a BRICK WALL.

We recently moved to the area and I took my kids to Storytime in the first week of October. The…read morewoman in charge of story time was quiet and low energy. She was holding a stack of books with no apparent relationship to each other. I kind of assumed there would be a sort of theme, like Autumn or Halloween. Nope. She proceeded to read "Blueberries for Sal" in the driest, most unenthusiastic voice imaginable. It was like the reading of a eulogy. Seriously. No wonder there were only two other stragglers there besides us. When she was finished she got out a pile of papers for a craft. I have no idea what this was supposed to be (see photo). But I DO know that it has been photocopied 750,000 times since it was first made and it was faint and pixelated like an Atari game. Really, how hard can it be to find a perky, animated, woman to read stories once a week? And throw a little craft in there? Besides being the Land of Children, Utah also holds the title Land of Perky, Energetic, Women Who Love Kids. You've got to get yourself together, Davis County Public Library.

I had the best experience here. Security was so nice! Once my things were scanned and I walked…read morethrough the metal detector, they told me where to go to find the social security office. I was greeted when I walked in to the security office and given a mask (they still wear masks in this office). They had me sign in at the kiosk and then wait for my number to be called. I think I sat there for less than 2 minutes when my number was called. They told me to go to a weird window, so security pointed me in the correct direction. They even walked back to make sure I made it. The person at the window was really nice. He helped me get my name changed and it took probably 3 minutes max. I was in and out of this place within 10 minutes. Going through security took the longest because there were two groups ahead of me. From the beginning to the end, every single person I encountered was sweet! Even the janitor smiled and said hello! I will 100% visit this location again.
