Writing a review for a library is amusing to me. I've always been a library lid, I worked in public…read morelibraries for quite some time and now I teach about public libraries in an master of library and information science program. But obviously not all public libraries are the same. I've been meaning to visit this library since I moved to Milwauke, but I never made it happen. So, I was delighted that the Tosa Library was very close to my last errand of the day which happened to be in Wauwatosa. Such a lovely, sunlit space with creative and quirky art that refected this community. I roamed the teen, children's, and adult sections and was delighted to encounter helpful staff in each section. A true highlight and community asset of Tosa!

Always love this library. It is generally easy to get into and out if you're in a hurry. The staff…read moreare very friendly, helpful and patient with some folks who just want to sit and talk. They have great recommendations and have different areas throughout for you to try something new. Don't forget they also have passes to museums, the zoo, etc that you can rent out, too!

Never got to share my experience from the other day. I actually saw that this is a popular…read morephotographer spot since the architecture is a selling point of this place itself. I got to get some pictures, tie up some loose ends with a very helpful librarian, went on a little side quest to the the second floor in the business room where I found a few amazing books that were showcased. I love that they showcase books as looking through the isles is a little daunting. Using the online portals to sign out books for book check out is an amazing tool. Book drop off drive through is great, don't even have to get out of the car. Parking is by meter conveniently all around block. Lighthouse is so neat! The children's area librarians are incredibly sweet and knowledgeable, you see a lot of the same staff here which is also telling of an environment I feel. Inner city so it sometimes it attracts loitering, but overall it's well kept.

I was harassed and questioned by library manager Heather NcSorley about what I identified as. I do…read morenot and no longer recommend using this library. Go to another location. Instead of using the drive thru and being questioned about what I identify as I will use the inside self checkout to not have any interactions with the staff.

I've been a regular library user and usually have positive experiences, but I was very disappointed…read morewith how I was treated regarding a STEM kit. When I borrowed the kit, all the parts were there. One set of attached blocks included a slightly off-color red piece, but the kit worked fine and I assumed that's just how it came. I supervised my children while they played and returned everything intact. Later, the library called accusing me of replacing one of the blocks with my own and told me I had to pay $34.99 for a "missing" piece. This was upsetting, since I take good care of everything I borrow and even notify the library if I ever notice something is missing. Instead of being heard, I was made to feel like I was stealing. This experience makes me worry about checking out kits or specialty items in the future. I hope the library improves how it documents the condition of items before lending them, so patrons aren't unfairly charged for problems they didn't cause.

Excellent library! Their staff is welcoming. The facilities…read moreare great and its programs, outstanding.

I'm extremely disappointed in the Waukesha Public Library. I went to check out a book, but when I…read morelooked at the cover it was marked as a "rental." You have to pay $1.00 to hold on to the book for a week. I'm sorry but this is the LIBRARY. Aren't books supposed to be free to check out? If I'm late to return a book, I'm fine paying a late fee. But having to pay to check out a book? Pretty ridiculous in my opinion. It just seems like they're trying to nickel and dime you.

For a newer building, this library seems tiny to me. Perhaps I somehow haven't seen all of it yet?…read moreAdmittedly, I don't spend much time in here. With CountyCat up and running, I can reserve books from home and be in and out of the library in just a few minutes. The self checkouts are a nice feature, if only the computers weren't so persnickety! The lobby is huge, which I like, a lot. No having to move out of the way when reading the bulletin boards, and the windows let in a lot of light! 21/2015

There's always crafts to do and mini scavenger hunts that get changed about twice a month. Also seasonal reading challenges that get kids excited to read and win prizes. They also have legos, a train set, and a play grocery store. It's definitely worth a visit for any ages!
