This review is specifically for the one on Washington Street across from the court. This was a great little library. Centrally located with easy parking and in a very cute part of town. Staff was relatively helpful. I had some issues reserving a room, but the librarian on duty was very accommodating when the system wasn't quite working right. The wifi works well and there are a number of cozy places to sit and read or do work. While there was only one conference room you could realistically have a call or meeting in, there is also a nice study corner (pictured with the glass) that was a very productive place for me to work. All in all the library is well laid out, with a separate children's section away from the more quiet study and work areas. Note that the study/conference room is right next to the children's area. But the door is relatively insulated and the fact that children might be noisy nearby makes one less likely to feel bad about having an animated phone call or meeting.

Online has a huge selection of ebooks and audiobooks you can download through Kindle, Ipad, and Adobe. The wifi can be spotty, but it's free so I never complain. The computers usually get taken quickly as do the study booths. The bathrooms are clean and the conference rooms are nice. Also, there's a good selection of music. The first floor children's area has more games than you can imagine along with a lizard!! Parking can be painful. The garage under the library is not recommended if you have a large SUV or truck. It gets really tight. Sometimes, it's just easier to pay for street parking.

They had a great variety of books and educational games/toys for children to act out and perform dramatic play. I also liked how they had information around the library for parents explaining the purpose of the toys available and how to best help their child with the activity. The staff was very helpful when asked about ebooks. Parking is limited - Welcome to State College.

Sure, why not?…read more Here's what matters: - No, we would never dream of coming here on a certain day in February - Parking was super easy at the rear lot for the library/police station/fire department/hair care/tire center - Apparently when it snows and gets icy, the locals don't believe in salting their sidewalks - We saw Phil in his burrow from the outside window. Downside is that Phil's burrow looked a little philthy. Looked like some combo of gnats/flies/ants/bugs in and around Phil's food dish which is kind of disgusting. Is their a need to come here? Of course not. But I guess what the hell, just to say that you've been to a place that is semi-relevant in this country's consciousness for a brief time in the morning once a year.

Most times the reason to come to a library is because you are a bibliophile. But there is a…read moreparticular reason to come to the Punxsutawney Memorial Library. And it is not for the books. The library is home to Phil's Burrow. Yes, that Phil. Punxsutawney Phil. You know who I'm talking about. That loveable dude that we all either want to hug or hate on February 2nd. Groundhog Day. I do have to be an aside here, and it has to do with the movie. If you saw the movie and you think you know, you don't. The movie wasn't even taped in Punxsy, it was taped in some town in Illinois. For the longest time I had no idea where this was located and I have been to the festivals at least twice in my life. I thought it was some mystical place that would be glamorous, but it isn't. Well, it is a bit mystical as it is a library. You can view Phil one of two ways. You can view from outside and see into his burrow. Or, or maybe and, you can go inside the library and view him on the platform in the children's literature section of the library. You will get to see Phil in his habitat. But you know what is really cool, Phil has a spouse. You will never guess what his spouse's name is...Phyllis. I was impressed by that. Give this a stop while in the area.
