They must have…read morebeen mainly upgrading the infrastructure because I don't see any real physical evidence of remodeling. There is plenty of parking & a quiet room for ADD & special needs folks with spinners etc. I love almost all the librarians with one notable exception who shall remain nameless but I'm told she gets lots of complaints. The internet isn't as strong as I think it should be for the amount of people who use it! I do appreciate that the librarians have tables set up with their favorite books. I do wish they would go back to the old days where quiet was observed but the Apex library is better about that I've found. I wish wake county libraries would have DVD's the way Durham libraries do.

I'm SO GLAD the libraries have their "books on the go" program up and running during the pandemic…read more The library staff work hard to get books into the hands of community members in a safe way. The pick up system has worked flawlessly and kept our house full of books for my kiddo (and saving me from buying tons of books for my avid reader!). Being connected to the rest of the library system allows for access to so many books, and they seem to arrive at the chosen branch more quickly now that "books on the go" has been up and running for a while. My kiddo and I are excited to get to pop back in and browse once it's safe to do so again. She's excited to have the opportunity to check out lots of the books on the shelves and find new favorites on her own. This is a great branch to do just that without feeling overwhelmed by too many choices.

I stumbled on this while looking for things to do in the area while attending a book signing. Being a book lover and author, this was an obvious choice. My friend and I explored the first two floors (we were pressed for time) and were in awe. I wish Charleston had something like this because I would be here every single day working on my next manuscript. There were several rooms, desks, and seating areas for readers and students alike to choose from. The large windows allow for plenty of natural light that offsets the bright interior lights. They have a wide collection of titles and studies! Highly recommend that you check it out. Just remember to be quiet and respectful as students may be present working on their projects.

On the other hand, my son complained about the slow public wi-fi, which is a pretty big negative when you're studying using your laptop. He said it took 10 minutes just to get connected to the wi-fi. But for that, this seems like a nice spot to study if you've got a personal hotspot (or access otherwise to faster Internet). Hopefully, there is faster wi-fi for NC State students.

My little one is a total bookworm these days, so I decided to reserve some books and do the pickup during COVID-19. Overall it was a good and easy experience. Once the books were ready I was able to schedule a pickup time, and went into the lobby to pickup my books. There was one other person in there, so I waited outside until they were finished up. I was able to go inside with my mask on and let the staff at the table know my name from 10+ feet away! My books were labeled with my name and ready to go on a table right in the lobby. They seem to have a good system in place! The only thing that could have been better was the security guard next to the staff member pulled his mask down under his nose to talk to me, I don't even know if he realized he did it. He was pretty far away from me though, so it didn't really worry me. Based on the books I selected for my son the staff included a little activity packet! I thought that was super sweet and loved the special activities! I also frequently use the electronic book services for my kindle. We will be ready and looking forward to story time and other activities when it is safe to do so!

The library is full of tall windows that allow natural bright light in. It also has plenty of big tables with chairs, however I would definitely recommend going earlier in the morning on weekends if you want a guaranteed table as they fill up pretty quickly. However they also have lots of couches with side tables that I sometimes use as a desk when tables aren't available (sometimes I prefer that since I am a comfy studier). At the entrance, they have a small coffee shop that I have yet to try. On the sides, they have a few conference/group rooms (which tend to be booked anytime I go) and downstairs, they have additional tables. They also have ample parking near the upper and lower entrances.

The library has self service to check out books. You can even look for books online, place them on hold, or submit a request. If the book you check out will expire, it automatically renews the return date unless some else has requested it. Locating books was pretty simple, I didn't have any trouble. They have several computer stations too. Cost 10 cents per page when you print documents. The staff were all very kind and helpful. It was really easy and quick to sign up for a library card too.

This could easily rival many main branches of most libraries. I was here for a bit to get out of the hotel room and do a bit of exploring. On the second floor are several tables with power to the surface. Comfortable seating. And a wifi network that worked really well. Big areas with stacks of books and a large parking lot. It is all you need and I am a fan. [Review 11629 overall, 1410 of 2019.]
