I'm so glad I got a membership to this library! As of late, I use my Kindle to read, so actual…read morecopies of books haven't been my go-to. But being able to check out e-books through this library has been a life saver (and a money saver!). I used to enjoy taking my son to the baby time events (it was pre covid though so I'm unsure what all they offer now.) This library is large, clean, has a helpful and nice staff, great parking lot with a good view of the mountains, and the location is convenient (right off of the interstate).

Checked out a book and got assistance from the librarian. Very nice people. I didn't find a large selection of books that I was looking for, but there are a great number of books. They also offer digital books, dvds and cds.

I decided to check out the "older" library after 12 years in Yuma hanging out at the "newer" one…read more This library is older but in no way is it less relevant. It's located right off the main strip and surrounded by trees providing much needed shade from the Yuma sun. Although in stature compared to others I was pleasantly surprised by the modernization inside. It offers all the amenities of a library such as free online services, in-person classes and the like. Of course the AC, library quietness and the use of natural light through the windows shouldn't be taken for granted. I might consider taking the kids (myself included) here on the weekends. In short it's worth the consideration!

I have to come here for work when representing clients in SSI and SSDI cases. The waiting area…read moreabsolutely sucks as you have to be seated at all times or otherwise go outside. Difficult when you need to speak with you clients, especially if it's 120 out or it's windy and cold. One redeeming grace is the older Hispanic security guard who makes your wait tolerable, cracking jokes and very funny. Don't expect to go in and out tho.

The Desert Lily Quilt Show takes place at the Yuma Civic Center every January. If you are a…read morequilter, I think you will find inspiration and validation here. If you are not a quilter, then you might treat yourself to the beauty and practicality of the world of quilts. The entrance fee is currently $8.00 and it is good for both Friday and Saturday. There is a Country Store where you can buy handmade items at reasonable if not cheap prices -- including quilts, runners and placemats, book covers, cloth woven baskets, pin cushions, pattern books and magazines, and on and on. There is a coffee nook, and there are tables and chairs where anyone can sit and rest. The women who run the quilt show are friendly and helpful. They seem dedicated to the art of quilting and making it available to the public. This is a happy place. The display of quilts is visually nourishing. But be prepared to do a lot walking -- bring your cane or walker if you need it (the Quilt Show is attended mainly by older women). If you go on a Friday, you can enjoy the enthusiastic bustle. If you go on a Saturday morning when there are fewer visitors, you can have a contemplative moment in a cubicle of quilts all to yourself. I attended both days. This is an environment of excellent craftsmanship plus an overflowing of love that goes into each quilt.
