Seriously folks it is a place beyond your usual library. They offer art classes for adults and children....movie night...computers available to use... and much more.

The staff are friendly, helpful and knowledgeable! They make you feel welcome!

Very conveniently located near the SSI lighthouse and Neptune Park. I needed to print something while visiting and was able to do so for $0.25/page. No Glynn County library card required, and using their computer plus Word on the desktop was a cinch; seamlessly printed to common computer and printing was perfect.

This library works with an interloan system with about 200 other libraries and you can pretty much get ANY book even if it's not in this library. The librarians are very friendly and helpful The children have their own little section but it's very limited. I like to request the books I"m interested in online and they notify me via email when book has arrived. I love the system... I'm happy!

The Georgia Historical Society is housed in Hodgson Hall, the headquarters and main library of the…read moreSociety and this building was designed by architect Detlef Lienau, being built in 1876. The Society itself was incorporated in 1839 and now holds the world's largest collection of materials germane to Georgia history. Hodgson Hall is a delightful building with a commodius interior and fine iron-work on the exterior, making a visit feel like a trip to a grand library at one of the world's great universities. Architect Lienau, though German-born, was one of the founders of the American Institute of Architects and though not as well-known as some of America's nineteenth-century architects, did some very innovative work including this building and it is fitting that the Historical Society is housed in a building of such note and merit. The collection itself is not only large but varied and while a lot of it understandably concerns the colonial and Civil War periods of Savannah's lengthy history, it also has interesting architectural and social content regarding the modern and contemporary history of the city and region. The Society also conducts frequent talks and events including special programs for schoolkids, partnerships with local colleges, and other efforts at outreach.

It's a beautiful, historic building, older than the whole city of Seattle (hey, Seattle is where I…read morelive, I can't avoid comparisons) (and yes, nearly all of the buildings in downtown Savannah are beatiful, old and historic, bear with me), and one of the perks of majoring in history at Armstrong in Savannah is that eventually you'll be admitted to the innermost sanctum of the Historical Society (after getting a membership, of course). You won't be able to do your Methodology paper without access to the boxes kept in a climate controlled environment that you have to sign for and can't leave the building with, but it's worth it to leaf through the 90 year old Grand Tour diary of the 10 year old son of a doctor who was one of the earliest users of the X-Ray. I think he died of radiation poisoning. Imagine that. It's a cool and quiet library with big wood tables, little lamps and a gallery running around the room. Just what you'd picture. The people working there are cool, quiet, smart and helpful, and if you appreciate libraries, history, books, and/or architecture, you should visit.

My last review for this library was about a year ago, so it's time for a little update. One year…read morelater and a lot has changed, an unrelenting pandemic and the frequency of my visits because of it. I don't know about you, but I've gone through stages during this pandemic, many stages. Stages, meaning the things I/we (family) have done to keep ourselves busy on lockdown. We started with cooking and baking almost everything trending during the pandemic (yes, I did Dalgona coffee, and yes, we made bread from scratch and and and... Eventually, that became a bit too much with too many goodies and not enough people to eat them, so we moved on to puzzles. Then started the Netflix/Amazon Prime binge watching...and THEN...I happened to see an update post of RHPL on social media about their reopening hours and new procedures. This is one of the best things that happened to me/us during this pandemic. I absolutely loved reading as a child but as I started adulting, reading became work related, emails, text messages, social media posts, headlines, articles, read aloud sessions and bedtime stories with kids etc. You get the point. They say it takes 30 days to form a new habit and now, I'm so happy I've had so much time during this pandemic to make it part of my daily routine. I am happy (and almost a bit sad) to say I have read more books in the last 2 months than I have in the last 10 years! But I won't cry over now. The ladies and gent here have been absolutely fantastic and I am soo grateful for their dedication and diligence during all this. They have been so helpful and so kind. Other than ourselves, my kids and I have seen the wonderful ladies at this library the most! These are some of their procedures during COVID : - masks are required upon entry, staff are wearing masks as well, hand sanitizer available - open for in-store pick up, signing up for library cards, pay fines. I think you can go in to use their PCs as I once saw a persno in the PC room, but it must be limited time, so please ask - when they first reopened, they were strictly doing curbside pick up by appointment only (15 min time slots), but since they have reopened the building for in-store services, they seem to be understaffed on some days and as a result of that, curbside pick up time slots are less frequent. If you prefer this service, it's great! You show up by the door by the drop boxes in the back at your appointment, you text them the number they give you to let them know you have arrived, pop your trunk open, they come out and load them in - when you arrive at the building, a librarian is inside the entrance and opens the door for you as the inside middle door is kept locked - returns must be placed by wooden carts at the entrance (next to librarian) - drop boxes are open during library hours in back of building - all returns are quarantined for 3 days (they backdate it so don't worry if it appears late, as long as you returned it before due date) - you cannot browse inside the library. However, if something catches your eye on one of the side tables, you can ask them to grab it and add it to your pick up. They ask that you limit to 5 items. There are tables turned over to the side that create a direct path to the front desk. There are tape markings on the floor to provide guidance for social distancing - you can email their gmail address to request for books, but I found the easiest way to reserve materials is simply to log in to your PINES account or download the PINES app and just place the hold there since it will tell you whether it is available or not. If it's available at a different location, you can place a hold and select the library of choice for pick up and they will notify you with the method of notification you have selected (phone, text or email). You have access to all the books in the PINES network in the state of Georgia. This is HUGE! - Discs or the State Park passes NOT available at this time - BONUS: you also have access to their other library apps, RBDigital for adults and AXIS360 for kids that also offer ebooks and audiobooks. This library may be small, but it's well connected and holds its weight in gold. I am so grateful for this library, especially during a time like this and my life has been enriched by it, as well as my kids. I am so late on this reading train, but at least I'm on it now. Now, excuse me while I read the book I checked out on knitting (LOL)....my new stage. Stay safe, Friends!

I went in the other day to apply for a library card and the gal helping me was beyond phenomenal. She was so helpful and explained all the rules and freebies to me.

I've been to this location a few times and it's never really busy however I do what to add it does seem like a "teen hangout" spot. Which in reality, if they are utilizing the services, is a good thing. Overall I would recommend this library for the location, availability of book, and polite staff members. Again getting a library card was very easy and they are willing to work with you to get you a card; just tell them your situation.

That seems pretty nice This evening I went to see Shawn Gaskell play the Kora (21-string West African Harp) in concert. It was conducted on the second floor of the library. He also explained how the Kora is constructed and told us several stories of his travels in Ghana. As always, I enjoyed my time there and I am looking forward to my next visit.
