As a nurse, I've worked with all kinds of people, but I can honestly say this department is…read morescraping the bottom of the barrel. Rude, lazy, out of shape, and completely lacking any trace of intelligence or manners. It's like the bully you hated in school, but now they've got a gun. I doubt any of them even live here, because they sure don't represent this community's spirit or values--if I'm putting it nicely. And if you think I'm exaggerating, check out the review from the disabled woman whose scooter they towed, leaving her stranded on the sidewalk without even a cane, after making mean comments about her medication and legally purchased cannabis! Classy, right? Who becomes a cop just to take away a disabled person's scooter? How did they look at her and then drive away? If any of these officers ever end up under my care, I plan on giving them the exact same level of "enthusiasm" and "helpfulness" they've shown me. I'm just as dedicated as they are. In short, they're the lazy, classless cops you think of when you picture garbage law enforcement--cops who should be fired and replaced with actual humans who aren't morally bankrupt and have more than four brain cells.

Terrible performance. My mother-in-law is a luxury real estate broker who was born and raised in…read moreAlbany for most of her life and lives on Francis St. when my husband and I were arguing outside of my car. My 17month-old was sleeping over his grandparent's house, hence why we were there to visit. My husband was also born and raised on this street as well. One of the neighbors made a report knowing nothing about the circumstances. When my Mother-in-law came outside to ask what was going on, the officers were very unnecessarily rude to her traumatizing her as well. Per usual as Albany PD always does, the finalized decision was a RACIST decision. I was born and raised in Hawaii and ended up being detained that night. I have never been in trouble my entire LIFE and was a student athlete. I have seen grown Caucasian adults physically fight in Albany and never be detained. Just simply given a warning because of a clean record, so why was I not given the same opportunity? Before even asking about the situation as well, they asked for my ethnicity.. why is that needed? My husband is Caucasian and from France and unfortunately initiated this disagreement as well. Although my mother-in-law bailed me out right away and I was cleared the next day. I'm glad the officer/ sergeant or whoever made the decision to arrest be doubled back to stop by the house to give his badge # and a bunch of pamphlets insisting I stay detained, (so my MIL says) because they will be hearing from me and my MIL very shortly. Albany is a great town/city because of their law enforcement, but clearly the law enforcement has 0 training when it comes to answering a simple report. I was traumatized. & look forward to facing the arresting officers in court.

Located after the main drag, which makes parking easier and they do have parking in the back offers…read morewhat most libraries do and then some. It has an interesting history. It used to be a hospital back in the day, so it's space was planned out perfectly. The city and people of Albany are able to use the rooms within there to do a lot of different activities not just as a library, but as a service to the community itself. The last time I went in for one of these, not looking for a book was when we had the Medicare. Meeting where they explained how Medicare works and all the different parts of it to anybody who's headed to that age that needs to be educated on how it works. People hung onto every word of it right there. They usually side rooms for wonderful things like that it's very informative. The library itself isn't huge like some public libraries in big cities, but it offers everything that everyone would need for a small community surrounding it. And I like the people that work there they're very courteous and helpful. It's always clean and there's plenty of space and I see all the tables are occupied by kids students and adults all working side-by-side together going through their books writing their papers all the different activities that are found in the library. It's a very modern design of a building and it offers so much to anybody that comes in there. Check their schedule of events there might be something for you.

Great staff, interesting collection. They have been very helpful in finding interesting series on…read moreDVDs for adults. Hopefully they will add to their collection.
