In my recent side quests to participate in more local experiences, I stopped by this library for a…read moreplant class. I have never visited this library before and probably would never visit it if it wasn't for something specific. It's off the beaten path and not something you would easily stumble upon. Needless to say it was a beautiful library. They offer several classes to encourage community bonds and growth. I would definitely visit again.

Nice small library tucked away off of Hobbs near New Garden. They also have a good walking trail…read morethrough the woods. It was a bit muddy but nice to get out into Nature.

If you aren't taking advantage of the municipal resources of Greensboro, you're missing out. Along…read morewith great parks and other features, Greensboro has some very good libraries. The Central Library downtown is wonderful. It has a lot of resources for all kinds of users, from movies to a massive kids area. Especially for kids, this is a great place to visit occasionally. It inspires my kids to read more which is difficult to do. They enjoy visiting, looking through all the book options, and checking out their choices. It's also right next to LaBauer park and the children's center so it makes for a great day out together.

A wonderful location for a library in the Greensboro area. So many selections of books available to…read moreread. Also offer internet access and many seating areas to relax and enjoy reading.

Great library with tons of resources in different formats. Only students, staff and faculty can…read morecheck things out, but it's a great place to go for in-person research for school projects. As an example, there are 2 very long rows of bookshelves dedicated to all things Shakespeare compared to the tiny selection at our local library (most of which are missing or checked out). Not appropriate for small children as the quiet policy is strictly enforced, but an awesome resource for mature, respectful older students.

I visited the Jamestown Public Library after I decided that I wanted to begin reading again. I had…read morenot been to a library in years and I was very skeptical about the selection this historic building would have. I was very pleasantly surprised! I stopped by one evening and as soon as I walked in it was like going back in time in the best way possible. This building is absolutely beautiful inside and out. I was helped by the library manager, Jim, and he was very friendly and helpful. He explained that the building was built in 1915 and was originally a school for the area. After being used for years it was almost torn down, but the alumni saved it from destruction and it was turned into a public library. There is a big array of books in all different genres and subjects. I saw some new releases I want to read as well as classics and everything in between. It was great to explore what they had in such a peaceful and beautiful setting. Jim let me know about book clubs they have, children's story times and that they offer e-Books, DVDs, and audiobooks too. He was very helpful and informative. I was able to make my selection and was given my own library card and saw that they still use the nostalgic stamps when you check your books out! I left with my book, my new library card, and a new excitement for reading!

Came here on a Wednesday morning to get out of the house and apply to jobs. I live at the edge of…read moreHigh Point so it was only 12 minutes from my home which is a good location. There are three things that I pay attention to when visiting a library, (1) the WiFi, (2) service to patrons, & (3) sitting space. As far as Jamestown Public Library fares, (1) the WiFi was shoddy. I had to reconnect at least 5x (which didn't take long but still), (2) the receptionist halfway spoke to me when I walked in so the service was "meh." I later saw other librarians who asked if I needed help so that was nice. Lastly, (3) I sat in the corner at a table. The area had ok lighting and there were plugs available for my computer and phone. It's important to not that library is sort of old fashioned so don't expect too much.
