    We never know what kinds of creatures will show up when Keith gets started.

    They host my friend Keith Crocker and his great film presentations on topics like music, horror, classic movies and more. https://www.asoulinwonder.com/post/with-dr-faustus-md-a-k-a-keith-crocker-it-s-not-what-we-see-it-s-what-we-don-t-see We never know what kinds of creatures will show up when Keith gets started. That monster is getting too close to Keith's wife Christine who works at the library. FTI-She made us deeeelicious caramel popcorn!

    It was our first time visiting this library and it was part of our Nassau Library Tour 2023. The library was bright and spacious. The children's room was clean, well organized, nicely decorated and lots of activities for the kids to do. My kids enjoyed the scavenger hunt inside the children room a lot. The library was having an exhibit about space / moon right now. It was very informative and my kids had a great time learning about the space by playing with their interactive kiosk machine. It was a fun visit.

Most of the passes you can print from home, but there are a few where you need to pick the pass up from the library. I especially like to use the empire pass to get free admission to beaches and state parks. The library has a good selection of video games, DVD and blue rays. I find myself using this perk less often now with streaming being more convenient, but I will occasionally borrow a series that streams from a platform that I do not subscribe to or to avoid commercials. There are programs for patrons of all ages. Summer reading programs with some incentives are for adults, teens and children. My niece has been enjoying tots at night and story time. She also loves the children's area that has a kitchen, cashier stand, doll houses, puppet theater and Lego table. The staff are kind, helpful and knowledgeable. It's great to see them when visiting.

I love taking my daughter here for the programs they have for the kids. There is a play area for kids with lots of toys and a sensory toy area as well with a few toys. They have seasonal reading clubs for kids to raffle for prizes. There are also lots of programs for kids and adults to utilize. There are also museum passes available to rent. Some passes now are digital to print out and some are still physical passes. Each have different regulations of how many admissions and rules which are listed on the library website.

The negative is that the play area for toddlers is not self contained , so our toddler of course wanted to walk around the corridor and go out. There are some libraries that have a closed play areas,making it much easier to navigate. Plainview and Syosset libraries are just two that have a closed area, which is easier. The librarians at the north merrick library were very nice and helpful

All for fracquets, the Town of Hempstead libraries share benefits. I go to East Meadow library every month for a lecture on gardening. I try to go to all the cooking classes at North Merrick Library. Some you watch and some you make along with the host. You always get samples! If you think your library only offers books, you're so wrong. Support your libraries!

    I've been living in Westbury for about 9 months now and one of the first things I did when I moved…read moreinto the area was securing my Westbury Memorial Public Library card. I showed the librarian my current driver's license that shows both my name and current address. The librarian was very friendly and welcoming. I've received the library's monthly newsletter that lists the many free programs (book club meet ups, movie nights, craft clubs, author events, and so much more). I've participated in the Defensive Driving six-hour class with Empire Safety Council on a Saturday from 10:00 am - 4:00 pm. The fee was $35 and it meets in the meeting room. Though Westbury Memorial Public Library has a great selection of items, I've also used the interlibrary loan many times. This is a free library service that allows people to request books, movies, games, etc. not at Westbury Memorial Public Library. Most requests for books and media items are filled within a week, which is very convenient and quick. Items that are available for pickup is behind the circulation desk and the librarian will get it for you after your library card is scanned. Another great service is complimentary passes to museum and cultural sites. I've reserved free family passes to Vanderbilt Museum, Mansion and Planetarium, Old Westbury Gardens, and Cradle for Aviation. The passes for Vanderbilt Museum, Mansion and Planetarium and Old Westbury Gardens were both electronic. The Cradle for Aviation pass is a physical one. Most recently, I joined and completed the Adult Summer Reading challenge from Monday, June 29 - Monday, August 17, 2026. On the first day, I picked up a swag bag at the Reference Desk. After every book I read, I filled out a raffle bookmark and dropped it in the box back at the library. Prizes were drawn each week. Unfortunately, I did not win any of the prizes, but it was fun to participate. Children's Library is a separate building and they have switch games to borrow. Libraries support my reading obsession in the most cost-efficient way and offer so much more. Westbury Memorial Public Library is a great community library and I am glad I am a member. All the staff I've interacted with have been very friendly.

I am thrilled with all the services provided at this library and the professional, friendly attention that comes with it. I highly recommend this branch.

My experience my first visit was very similar to having a space that I could work and not have to worry. Everything I needed for my project was there. I lost track of time working. I was so comfortable in the environment. Printing was easy. Glad I visited it. Kept passing it going to and from class to one day I just said let me go and utilize the time. You can book a room for group sessions or meetings too. Bring your child, books for them too.

If you like solitude but you want to eat, go to the third floor towards the windows. 3. If you need to take a nap go to the 2nd floor (quiet floor). 4. Never put a $10 or more into the copy machine ( witnessed a $50 bill disappearing into the toll and the student still seeing $0.00). 5. Not able to afford to copy your textbooks? Take pictures and transfer it to your computer or iPad (professor friendly). 6. The third floor by the boys bathroom there are outlets connected to the table, it's the perfect place to charge your electronics. 7. Always email your documents prior to printing. Never rely on just a USB portable (Microsoft 2010). 8. During the summer they do ID checks. 9. Never, NEVER, leave your headphones home. Boisterous students will come and act barbaric suddenly. Improvements: The bathrooms, and the staff. In my opinion, I think they need to hire more college students for the secretarial jobs. The women on the "Quick Print" side have such a distinct attitude, and sarcasm to the point I rather ask a dog for help. Also, they were always talking about their husbands, and love life. Hence, #9 the headphones. You're Welcome.
