    A lady of the name Brinna was very helpful to me today. Really enhanced my experience at the…read morelibrary!

    Decor: This building has it all - a children's area, computer lab, multi-level space of all media…read morePrice: Everything is free with your library card, unless you get a late fee. All-in-all: This place has it all, from services to stuff you can physically check-out and its all FREE! Listen, Arthur the Aardvark must've had this place in mind when he released his number one hit 'Library Card' song, never heard of it? - you HAVE TO Google it! Usually when you think Public Libraries boring places with books everywhere probably come to mind. Well, this library has plenty of books, and a lot of space to store them, but wait.... THERE'S MORE! You can also check-out: Magazines, CDs, Video Games, Movies, Audio Books, and probably other things I just haven't thought to ask about just yet. It's like the Walmart of all things media.... well, its more classy than Walmart so maybe it is the Target (everything is still free though). It is hard to share this information because I know the more popular the library gets the more I may have to wait for some items but the people have to know! If you are a frequent user of RedBox, and you live in Manhattan, go ahead and give your credit card a rest because the MHK Library has a wide variety of items you can check-out for the whole family (or just yourself) and if the Library doesn't have it but you want it (hold on to your hat for this) - they will buy it, and you can get first dibs on it when it comes in! I've benefited from this feature a couple of times. This participate in the Interlibrary loan program, and have other partners that greatly improve their catalog of items to choose from. This library also offers/ provides a space for other services, like a free tax preparation during tax season. I'll wrap up this review by saying this is one of the best spots within the city, and a good space where you can see your tax paying dollars going to great use!

    To be honest - it was my first time being inside of a 'research' library. It didn't take long for…read moreme to realize that their focus is on non-fiction books, articles, and study materials. They do have a small selection of fiction books though. I was originally concerned when I was looking for study books that my previous local library had, but this 'research' library didn't. I've filled out requests to get some books through their Inter Library Loan program, and I didn't have high expectations since I've tried it before at other libraries and my requests just sat in limbo. Yet, it seems they have a Inter Library Loan Technician and it seems that is all he does and I received an e-mail a week library that books were ready for pickup, that were shipped from a different state. Was thoroughly impressed. Not only that - but I submitted some purchase requests for some expensive books to assist me with studying for certifications. Not 1 - but 3 books were approved for purchase and was there in a few weeks. Quiet - numerous computers, and an ever growing library - and if they don't have it - they won't hesitate to ordering it for you! Oh and no late fees - can't beat that.

    Very professional and clean library that obviously caters to military academics. That being said,…read morethey have a very kid friendly section that provides the kids a place to learn and have fun. The staff is very helpful and friendly and they have a very liberal check out policy. A subway is located just next door for convenience as well.
