Gibson Library is a well kept library out near the Water District…read more Not as busy as the other Henderson libraries, which makes it quieter, and calm. Restrooms are well lit and clean. This library is a cooling station which allows the unhoused population a cool place to get a break from the heat. I believe this is a very humane and compassionate gesture, and support it 100% There is always a security guard on duty and she keeps the place in check. Customer service is awesome and always happy to help anyone.

I was able to easily renew my card, even though it had been so long that my info wasn't even in the system anymore. Waiting in that line was a bit of a bummer, it took a long time but I wasn't expecting swift customer service at the library. The selection here seemed alright, but it is a smaller library. I didn't stay for very long because every single table was taken and there was absolutely more talking and noise in here than at my home. I know quiet conversation is allowed but there are no dedicated quiet zones here.

Being an aunt is fun because you end up doing things you used to do when you were younger. I hadn't…read morebeen inside a library, at least a public one, for a long time. I brought my niece to Green Valley Library so we could maybe read a couple of books and hang out. The parking is a bit of a walk, not far, but it can be a bit challenging if you have kids or elderly with you. Luckily my niece ran with me so we made it safely across to the front and we were ready for our adventure. When you walk into Green Valley Library you're hit with a huge ceiling and you see a couple of employment agencies for people. That was pretty neat, it was set aside from the library, and it had chairs and benches for people who needed that service, and there is also a little stand where their security is guarding the area. The library in general is pretty small! However, the children's section is setup in its own little area; the bathrooms are within parents' eye view, and there's also a water fountain if that's your fancy. They have plenty of chairs and tables for families to do their homework, some writing/drawing and coloring. Green Valley has a sign on the tables that say you can enjoy coloring, snd they provide you crayons, but no paper or sheets! So if you're looking to do that, try not to forget those items. We were able to grab some scratch paper by their computers- and we made it work! We still had a great time. Their play area is small, and the toys are very basic. They have little chairs for your kids so it was cute seeing my niece have so much fun in her own little space. We read a book, and she had the best time browsing choosing out what she wanted to read. Overall it's a great little library for your kids if you need somewhere to study. I felt like a kid agains it was quiet, full of books and smelled like books! The older section also has a study pod that the librarians can help you use if you need it, which I thought was super neat and modern. Oh, you also check your books out electronically! This place was just a treat for me! I'm sure my niece had fun too, but if you're in the area, stop by!

This is one of four Barnes & Noble stores left in the Las Vegas valley, and the only store in the…read moreHenderson area. This is a HUGE store and has a lot to offer, including a huge kids section, kids toys, puzzles & games, gifts, arts & crafts, and a Barnes & Noble Cafe serving Starbucks coffee. Additionally, there is a cafe seating area inside and an outdoor patio with seating. They do story times for kiddos on Saturdays (check their event calendar online (https://stores.barnesandnoble.com/store/2745) and the store offers a $5 book of the month with cafe purchase. They also host special events and author appearance book signings. I've never had any problems here and the staff is always friendly and kind. If you're in the market for a new book, I would highly recommend this store. Not just for the large amount of inventory, but the ambiance and special events.

BEWARE *** Do not let your young children roam freely in this kid's section. I am thoroughly…read moreappalled and angry at the complete lack of oversight by this store's management. They have placed an adult/teen horror title, The Book of Bill, directly in front of the puppet show and toddler reading area. My 6-year-old opened it, and my 10-year-old was so disturbed by the graphic, nightmarish imagery that they had to slam the book shut and told me they would have nightmares from it.There is absolutely NO excuse or reason for a mature book with a warning label stating it is 'meant for older readers' to be mixed onto a low shelf meant for small children. It is negligent to put terrifying, bloody content where a toddler can grab it while playing. Management needs to answer for this, fix this dangerous display immediately, and keep adult horror completely out of the children's play space. Parents, be on high alert here. I will be adding some pictures so you can see what your children will see if they get their hands on it. On the surface, this Barnes & Noble is a wonderful place for families--it has the massive variety of a library, a great Starbucks conveniently located inside, and a beautifully arranged space filled with toys, puppets, and activities for everyone. Because it feels like such a welcoming community hub, I sat down and let my kids explore the children's section, thinking it was a safe environment. I never imagined I would need to shadow their every step. Sadly, a great store can be completely ruined by negligent shelving and a total lack of common-sense oversight by management. Please do better.

Lied Library has a very modern feel but incredibly spacious, lots of computer monitors if you don't have a computer. Librarians = also incredibly helpful! Overall, yes to Lied Library!

In fact if I wasn't able to find a table to work around be furious- I got through two college degrees utilizing my public libraries in Los Angeles. I understand education doesn't mean didly-squat to most people who live in this town however it does for those coming from educated backgrounds. There should be rows of desks with partitions: I have counted five tables each with people at them. This needs to be changed immediately to accommodate the people who would like to use a public library for its purpose; READ, STUDY, EXPAND their knowledge In a comfortable and peaceful environment. 3-D print stations which are utilizing desks are worthless when not being used.

I was in Vegas for a long enough stay that I visited this library on more than one occasion. If I…read morecould bring it home as a souvenir I would! The library was said to be smaller but they have so much to offer. I was there at a busy time one day and was able to get help and find a seat and enjoy my time there. I'd say this library is small but mighty. The weekends didn't have many patrons and was quiet. The children's area is nice. There are many new well organized books and media for kids...and also they have toy lending, fun looking toys too, just when a child gets bored with a toy bring it back and swap for a new one. They have thoughtful details added in that area, like heat sensitive boards on the ends of bookshelves. I saw a little boy put his hand on it and his face lit up when he saw his colorful hand print, him and his mom practiced his name. They have a separate homework room, so I saw kids in there doing homework and getting help with it. Where was this when I was a kid? Would have made school a lot easier as my parents worked late and weren't available to help me (and no internet even), speaking of internet, plenty of computers for people to use in this library. I had a tablet and was able to connect easily to their free wi-fi. They have a tiny area where they sell discard or perhaps donated books. Best prices in town. I mean where else is a book 25 cents. It's small like a closet but that's ok, I don't think that's the big attraction here, but a nice bonus. On the days I was there they had an additional cart by the door with cds and holiday books (as it's December) for sale. There was a large selection of magazines, i forgot about how many are published (more than the 6 you see at grocery stores) and about so many interests. I spent at least an hour reading different ones. Magazine are so expensive now and so I enjoyed reading for free. The bathrooms were clean. I was a little worried as I was there when lots of teenagers were there, after school hours, but it is kept clean and well stocked. Speaking of the teenagers, it's right near a high school so expect after school to see them. It was actually nice to see the kids using the library. They have a 3d printer, I've never seen one of those before. You have to take a class from them to use it. They have a VR set, so fun. There are quiet study rooms you can reserve use for up to two hours. They have a nice selection of puzzles. I'm sure there is so much more they offer. The best part was the staff. So helpful!, they really seem to care and want to help. I heard one man exclaim "you don't know what this means to find this", and left with a big smile. When anyone asked for something from the librarian's, they didn't just point, they went over with the patron and showed them the area they were looking for and helped them find what they needed. If the library didn't have what a patron needed they would offer to look and get it sent over from other libraries (or is it library's, with an apostrophe? see I needed that homework help). The hold system seemed really good. I saw the staff show people how to use the online option's. Yes, I spent more time than the average person there but that's what I like, no casino for me, give me a book that's my excitement. A favorite part of mine at this library was the staff recommendation shelf. I wish my library did this. I was not able to find anything that interested me, so I looked at there recommendations and now have a list of 5 (ok maybe 10) books I can't wait to read. When I talked to the librarian about one of the books, she just happened to be the one who recommended it, Rebecca! She was so helpful. I asked her about another author and well let's just say she has inspired me to read and read! I also observed her helping and inspiring many others on the few days I was there, actually all of the librarians. They are all gems! Such a great staff.

With the children grown now, and the days of homeschooling past us. The days of the library seem like a distant dream. We are reawakening the days of old . Dust off that library card, in fact mine expired. It's now all renewed. It does not even cost a cent . Our library here hosts a collection of events that are free or cost so less that you would not even have to pay much for your entertainment expenses. Some of the shows here are good. We used to exist here. Not so much now, but many times and hours spent here. If you have not been to this library come on over it's got multiple levels and little nooks to hide with your favorite book. They have videos to check out and you might be surprised that they get in all the newest titles . You can reserve that one you want and pick it up too. The power of the library is like the power of the universe all in your mind. Think it up and see it to fruition.
