This library is a place to socialize rather than actually get any work done…read more Positives: printer(color or black and white), teenager section, adult section, children section, winter programs, summer programs, constant prizes, raffles, and opportunities to win items, you're able to renew items with no charge, and it's very disable-accessible. Negatives: charges for printing, lots of papers to sign, difficult process for cards, expiration dates for cards, lose a card? You have to pay for another one have to be a certain age to use certain computers, have to have your card ON YOU to check anything out, charges for late gain quickly, attitudes from workers(specified later), and loud for a library. For the rude workers: Renee: VERY RUDE. She's the main worker. She's in charge of both the children's section AND the teenager section of the library. While she's pretty good at taking charge of the children's section, she has NO idea what she's doing in the teenager section. She's on top of everything in the children's section, but when it comes to the teenagers, she's coming in late to the programs, shutting down some of the favorite programs, never refills the snacks that the teenage section is known for and loved for, and is fairly rude to all the teenagers. I have also heard that she is very rude to the workers as well. A bad person in general. She's seen at the children's section most of the time. The workers behind the counter and in the teen section are very nice people! I love talking to Shannon and Danielle. While the people upstairs can be rude at times, the people behind the counter on the main floor are very polite and love to help with any problem that you have. Mostly pleased with this location. Renee is the only reason why I put this rating at 3 stars. You'd think I'd put it at four, but the negative effect she has on the library is so great that I have to put it a 3. I recommend this library to a LOT of people, I just recommend to stay out of the children's section.

This is my favorite library on the planet. Maybe because it's in my home town. I moved away from…read moreCoal City when I was 15 and have never found a library quite like this one. It is a landmark in the community. It's a beautiful library. It has so many fun things for kids to do, especially during the summer. There are computers for people to use, printers to print things out if you don't have a computer, lots of kids books and things for kids to do, rooms to hold meethings in - you name it, this library's got it.

When I went here I was surprised on the building designing was so unique and cool. When I went…read moreinside there was a lot of noise from kids running around and yelling.

Well, yes, it's JUST a library, but I've been in numerous libraries in my lifetime and I must say…read morethis one is the best by far. Extremely clean, neat and orderly. The staff are exceptional, friendly and go above and beyond to help you with anything -- if they don't have it, they do everything they can to get it for you! They offer tons of special get-together from book clubs to tot-reading meeting groups. They have this thick reference binder with lists of "Like" authors that I've never seen before -- for example, if you love to read books by John Grisham -- you like his style, but you've already read everything he wrote, the reference binder they have up at the front desk (You'll have to ask) has a list of authors that write similarly (either topic or style) to John Grisham (or any other MANY MANY MANY authors). If you are like me and often wish for a place to just "get away" from your home, kids, or husband (but can't afford to run off and hide in Jamaica), then come hide out here! Since it's a library which requires the ambiance must be quiet and peaceful, you have the perfect excuse as to why you didn't answer your cell phone ;-)

My favorite thing about this library is the friendly staff. They are welcoming and always ready to…read morehelp out if needed. It is a one floor library. They have an online system so you are able to access your account from home to renew books, places holds, request books from other libraries, and view due dates. I mostly went for fictional novels. They have plenty of newer authors and most of their books are hardcover. They have a small section (two aisles) of large print books. Their children's section is decent in size with a small play area for the kids, nothing special but my three year old loves it. Their nonfiction section has a little bit of everything, but again, nothing out of the ordinary. Typically I needed to request nonfiction materials online from other libraries. Their magazine section is quite nice and there are several pieces of leather furniture for cozying up and reading on. I liked how they had a magazine exchange where you could bring old magazines to add to the bin for others and take other people's old magazines home with you. They have plenty of computers that can be accessed with a library card but you may not use them if you have fines. There are walk up computers for quickly looking up call numbers and books are easily found where they should be. Overall, a great library.

The staff is always extremely helpful and very pleasant. The WiFi is plenty fast and there is more than ample seating, if you want to stray from the herd. There is also a quiet reading room with a Keurig, stocked up with plenty of flavors. The front doors sounds like a multiple vehicle pileup when they're opened, but that's the paradoxical part of the quiet library experience, I guess. Still love the place!

They have a great library with alot of connected museums nearby and good flyer management. It's the way of the world now that in this digital age where people are so seperate and distant from eachother, places like the library have to bring back that social connection amongst people cuz without that there really is no valuing of knowledge, even in things like books. So keep on doing good Joilet Library, and may the force be with you.

I am a member of the "Friends of JPL" but due to circumstances beyond my control, I cannot participate. I hope to change this soon. They offer so much for us that if you believe you are lacking in service, it is probably because you do not realize all they offer, IMHO.
