If you're from the Philadelphia area and you like the South Street or Rittenhouse Square vibe Media…read moreis the place for you. The downtown area is quaint and it's full of unique shops of course you'll find many restaurants and bars that sell food. The restaurants and borough have specials during the warmer months on Wednesdays. The town has late dining and live jazz at times where they block off the main street for performances. Dining Under the Stars, May-September. Media especially 'downtown' is very clean. The people are nice enough not rude or overly friendly. Believe it or not Media has nice grounds near and around the County Courthouse. While there check out historical markers. The small art gallery's and businesses that sell locally designed items like jewelry, candles etc., are very nice along with several consignment shops. https://visitmediapa.com/

It's a small library with a few chairs scattered around the edges with bookshelves in the center. I…read moretried to google library with couch seating areas and this one came up. It did have a wall of popular magazines as you enter. I hardly have an opportunity to chill w a magazine these days. It's got a nice kids section and seems more like a family library. I was looking for a more robust large library besides the ones downtown. Once I learn the train, I can chill more in downtown. This library did have pretty flowers outside but was a bit boring for me.

Well lit and bright, clean. The staff has been really kind and helpful. There's tons of computers,…read moretables, and seats to study at or just read. They have tons of things beyond books too! There's library passes, yard games, even a power washer. Lots of games and even baking pans. Really neat. I've noticed they even have events for kids/teens.

Good they're open on a Saturday, not so good they still aren't open for internet usage.read more

Great public facility in the community. They hold many diverse events which draw nice groups…read more I've attended: - An informative, well researched talk on the history of Aston presented by the Historical Society - Bingo. A fundraiser for the library. If you attend one of these I suggest getting there 30 minutes early because the seating goes fast. The volunteers who work here are delightful and I see tweens and teens here a lot so they are really good at hitting all segments of the community. I mean, how easy is it to get a teen into a library today??? Great job Aston Library.

What a Lovely Day for a birthday party. The sun was shining, the breeze was cool, the grass was…read moregreen, and the trails were awesome. We were pleasantly surprised to find out that there are so many mountain bike trails traveling from Springfield, into Media, and Upper Providence. They travel along side rolling creeks, that may or may not be stocked. There are swings and a couple jungle gym sets for the kiddos. What a great idea, have your birthday party outside, in the fresh air and nature. We love the outdoors, especially at this time of year. Bring your softball and glove or football and have a family fun day. The Johnny on the spot was very clean, there was no trash anywhere. We were so impressed with the upkeep of our park. We gave it a 10 out of 10. Thank you God for the gift of nature!

Not often in my library rotation because I'm closer to the ones in Wilmington but this location is…read morebeautiful and one of the more recently built. It sits inside the also recently built Darley Green Development which make it an awesome addition for the people who live in those townhomes (great idea) but us outside folks are welcome too. The floor plan is very well laid out with clear, bold signage overhead. The DVD is good but a bit awkward to read because they shelve them on their sides so you have to bend your head. This is my third time here and I've only had one problem and that was with a gentleman who refused to let me pay my fine with my debit card because it wasn't signed. He tried to make me sign it with a sharpie. I refused to do that and just came back with cash.

As far as libraries goes, Claymont is pretty solid. It's not a super big library but for it has all…read morethe basics. There's obviously books/magazines, computers, study areas, and even a kids zone. Parking is never an issue when I come here. The staff is really nice and friendly. And it's never over crowded at this library which is a plus. If you live in the area and need a book, some place to study, or a computer then this is the perfect place.
