So now that we've been in South Jordan for almost a year, my wife, and I finally decided to obtain…read moreour new library cards to provide another avenue of entertainment for our whole family. I love that we can download e-books and periodicals online too. I was very impressed with the South Jordan Branch Library. it is part of a much larger county organization and we can enjoy books and other entertainment from all community branches. Not only does it have extensive resources and events, but it is beautifully decorated as you can see by the pictures below. Staff are knowledgeable and courteous, and we enjoyed browsing through music, book, and even DVDs. An extensive calendar of events is also available for the community to take advantage of. If you haven't gotten your library cards, go to any local branch and they will have you ready in under five minutes. Just bring a form of ID and proof of residency, like a utility bill. They said even my four-year-old granddaughter can get a card with an adult. Stop by soon and let me know what you think!

The staff are so friendly and helpful to the community and I am so grateful that students have more opportunities to perform and share their talents at the public library. In particular, Andrea Wilkinson, who is the director for the children's programs, was so welcoming and friendly to us at our Christmas recital this week! We can see that she makes a difference in the educational programs for children here!

Best library around! Aside from excellent collections of books (the sci-fi, travel and youth…read morecollections are especially good), the Sandy Library is really like s a community center versus just a library these days. One can check out telescopes, use 3D printers, get personal meeting rooms and more. The library programa are constant and extremely well put together, catering to kids (reading clubs, parties) to teens (D&D, cosplay) to adults (book clubs, art exhibits). On top of all this, it's beautifully decorated! Only occasional problems are those stemming from people bringing their cell phone conversations into the library and talking out loud.

There's so much wonder and awe packed into those places and regardless of which library I visit, I feel the same feeling. I stopped by this one for an event-a community book club. How appropriate right?! We had a private reserved room for our discussion and could see the bookshelves through the glass wall. It was perfect! This library, as I'm sure many do, had a section for children, teens and adults. That makes it nice for people to browse age-appropriate books and maybe make some friends while they are here.

It was kind of weird to see a sharps containers in the bathroom, but I can understand why they would have that, given a need for it. It's kind of a small library, but I may not have found most areas of the building. The library was nice and clean and bright, despite the gloomy weather outside.

We love our local public libraries! The Herriman branch is a great spot with a lot of material. I…read morehaven't figured out their "speciality" yet, but it's easy enough to reserve materials and have them brought to this branch. Holds from other branches vary in the time they take to show up, but if it's available at the time you reserve it, it doesn't take but 48-72 hours to show up at Herriman's branch. Most of the libraries are phenomenal - super helpful, personable, and knowledgable. There are one or two I've encountered who are super quick to add fees to your library account (like when I pointed out a children's book had damage that we didn't do, she tried to charge me for the book) but they're the rare exception. We loved all the precautionary measures this branch did during COVID to make patrons feel safer. It was like Christmas when they opened up curbside pickup during COVID and like coming home when they opened their doors again. We love our public library!

I stopped by to grab a copy of The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks for my book club meeting, and they had two copies available. Also, I had no idea that if you have a library card for American Fork, Pleasant Grove, or Highland, you can use it at any of the three libraries. So that was great to know! I tried using self check out, but since it's been a couple of years since I've used my card physically at the library, it was blocked. I had to head to the counter, and they just needed to confirm my info was still correct. Super simple fix. The employee who helped me was so friendly exactly the kind of person you hope to interact with at a library.

I have read three previous reviews, I can't say I had anything that bad happen to me. I have…read morechecked out movies for a dollar a week, then had to pay late fees. The receptionist told me fines go toward buying new books, which I can support more than paying Blockbuster fines to a corporation back in the day. Book selection is fine for me, I still haven't finished the ones on my list. My 7 year old daughter loves to go and get books to read. I had to buy one replacement that was lost. They were understanding but they do enforce the deadlines. I have used their computers to print things out and that was helpful, you just need to have a library card and your account can't owe too much money in fines. I have been able to use USB drives with no problem. I do wish they had extended hours of operation. My current occupation requires long long hours, and it is rare that I can make it in to check anything out. It is awesome they have an outdoor book drop so you can return books on your schedule. It would be cool if they had a separate floor for grown-ups so that the noise from the children doesn't distract your concentration. When I build my own library.... All in all, a good value for the price (FREE!)

It isn't very large, so if you are hoping to sneak away into a private corner to do work, then you will find there aren't a lot of hiding places. The younger children's book area is separate, which helps contain much of the noisier patrons in one place, since littles aren't very good at whispering. If you really need more quiet, you can either reserve the private room available, or just wear noise-canceling headphones. If I am studying, I will often pull up some classical music to study by on YouTube and listen with my headphones while doing my studying. This way I am not distracted by anyone else who may be near by. As with all libraries, it maintains a level of quiet, but it won't be dead quiet like in a university library. After all, this is a community library that caters to families...which includes children. I love seeing kids at the library! It's a good place for our next generation of leaders to hang out.
