This community library is amazing. I didn't have access to my computer for a while, so I went to…read morethe library to type something out. Not being that familiar with their Dell computers, I asked for help (more than once). Everyone was amazing, and very helpful. Oh, and to print something out off the computer, it's only .15 a page (but if you are a library member- I think you get five free pages a day). For an amazing day, go to the library, then go take a walk around the Toledo Botanical Gardens. If it's hot, the library is air conditioned. If it's hot, walk through the shade garden, at the Toledo Botanical Gardens (the Gardens are free). I noticed that some adults had brought their children. While the adults did work on one computer, the children were set up on an adjoining one to play games, or look at interesting information. (There is also a coloring area for the kids, with paper and crayons). If you need to rest, or read something not too long, there is a fireplace at one end of the library, with comfortable chairs to read or just rest. We have some wonderful places to go in Toledo, that don't have an entry fee.

The librarian at the desk was super friendly, and kind enough to mention some cool things of note, especially after we mentioned we were both librarians who worked with kids! So jealous of this beautiful children's' dept.! We loved the gorgeous tile work around the walls, the Nancy Drew special collection, and how inviting the space was, especially with all of the displays the kids can climb on and into! Would definitely bring kids here!

Being a self-proclaimed regular reader, I've been to many libraries in my life. Some were small,…read morehad a limited selection of books and DVDs, and reaked of nasty little children. The library I grew up with always had tiny asian kids running around causing a raucus (I was one of them, till age 10). Nevertheless, I was really impressed as I drove up to this beautiful glass building with regal architecture (for Perrysburg, anyhow). There are several dropboxes in the front of the building guided by the driveway. Why leave your car in 19 degree weather? Inside the building, it's clean and well-lit, and the room is lined with plenty of places to sit. Along with plushy chairs, there are neat little booths all around that you can sit in to do some work. The children's section takes up about half the main floor. I haven't ventured in there to claim MY Harry Potter, but it looks impressive and spacey. There are also several computers that are surprisingly not ancient. What surprised me most about this library was it's vast, up-to-date DVD collection. There's no limit on how many DVDs you can check out, and you can hold it for 1 week. You can also check out books for up to 4 weeks, which is pretty amazing. I remember the good old days when books can be borrowed for only 2. The staff is made up of friendly old women and nerdy clerks. I love this library. Sign out of facebook and check it out, Perrysburgers.

The Ellis Library and Reference Center is a cut above the rest.  They have a healthy reserve of…read morebooks.  The place is kept neat, clean and orderly, which is very important for any library.  The library staff is professional and polite.  They know their work and go about it in a reassuring fashion.  I appreciate the lighting in this library.  It is clear and light even when overcast, which it was when I visited. There is some limited seating outside.  The building itself is attractive and modern looking.  At the same time it has classic styling which hints at Frank Lloyd Wright.  Either there is some influence there or he had his hand in it. The parking lot is kept clear even during inclement weather, and, this being Michigan, we get our fair share of that.

We rented out the banquet hall and the grassy area with the barn for our wedding. The banquet hall…read morecame with access to the board room and a kitchen area that has a large fridge and a heating cabinet. There aren't any stoves or ovens but there is a decent amount of space as well as a couple of serving windows that face one of the doors to the banquet hall. We got a really good deal for them, but we also rented during the week and I imagine the weekend price is a little higher. The grassy area is a little small, but there is still plenty of space to set up a nice sized event. The barn is a nice blank slate that you can do anything with to jazz it up. Our only complaint about the barn is that one of the doors is painted this really ugly color that makes it stand out in a bad way. You could argue it's rustic, and you can hide it or take attention away from it, but we would have like it to be painted another color. There is no electric at the barn, so if you need power you will have to run extension cords or have battery powered devices. The banquet hall itself is quite large with plenty of space for a large group, or a medium group to have a large dancing area with food tables. We elected to put our food tables in the hall just to maximize space, and there was still plenty of walking space in the hallway. The hallway also has a really nice fireplace with 2 chairs that makes for a great photo spot. The boardroom is a generous size with more electrical outlets than I could see you ever needing. It has a nice sized table and some semi-comfortable chairs. I'm not sure what you have to do to get permission to use but there is also a firepit outside, and that is next to an old post office building that is petite and makes for another great photo spot. Since the community center gets used quite often most of our vendors had been there before and that made it really easy to get them set up. There were some other rooms available and a courtyard area, I can't comment on those but the place itself has a lot to offer and is great for whatever event you need to host!

I didn't look at the other rooms but I posted pictures of the Metzger Room that we rented. The day that we had our party, there was a wedding reception in the banquet hall and a graduation party in the other rooms. Mary and Connie were the contact people and were friendly and nice to work with. They seem pretty flexible and willing to work with your needs. The rental fees were reasonable and it's great because they allow you to bring your own food/caterer. They do require a deposit for damages but they are really fast at returning it after your event. The Metzger room had a fridge and sink which was convenient for preparing food, etc for the party. And it connected to an outdoor patio space. The room was a bit hot on the day we were there & there didn't seem to be a way to control the air but overall the room fit our need.
