I went at lunchtime, while at work one week. It's always crowded and it's a complete and utter zoo. No one is ever in pleasant mood, staff and guests alike. At least I was able to get in and out of this place in less than two hours, unlike the one in Clawson. Is there no way to improve this slow process?

*WARNING* DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME HERE…read more THE WORST sos I've been to in michigan. When I first showed up they refused to recognize my appointment until I showed them my confirmation email. Had to get a manager to even let me get in line. This wasn't even the worst part. When I approached the service desk, the low iq clerk told me my title wasn't valid. I HAD THE ORIGINAL COPY. It blows my mind how someone with a brain and eyes refuses to recognize legitimate paper work. *HOW I SOLVED MY ISSUE* After being told by the clerk that she can't help me I immediately went to the sos in STERLING HEIGHTS. A++ Service. Super friendly clerks and overall way more organized. DO NOT GET ANY PAPERWORK DONE HERE. ABSOLUTE WASTE OF TIME!!!!

The Henry Ford Centennial Library is a large, rectangular building…read more                 It is very imposing.  From Michigan Avenue there is a large entryway.  It is difficult to access it.  You need to drive around back and enter the building from there.                 It is finely designed and the white marble is striking in the sunlight or the rain.  It is very beautiful in the evening.  The interior is very interesting.  The entryway leads to a circular stairway which you must take if you are going to check out a book.  The checkout desk is on the second floor.  So is the reference desk.                 I didn't see the entire collection.  What I saw was a standard offering.  They have a LOT of books.  The building is as voluminous inside as you would expect after having it seen it from the outside.                 The clerks at the checkout desk were very happy to assist me.  I went to the Reference Desk and was also treated with respect and dignity - except for one clerk who we'll just assume was having a bad day.                 There is a fountain sculpture in the first floor lobby.  I caution you not to look at it while heading up the staircase or heading down the staircase.  Just thinking about it right now is making me dizzy - so think about it with caution too.  Otherwise it's a fine library.
