Far from just a library, they have made it a multi-cultural community and gathering place, where all are welcome. Thank you!

I love this library! It's absolutely gorgeous!…read more It's relatively new and it's pretty large. On the main floor, they've got fiction, a teen area, all the media, and a bunch of areas to sit and relax and read. They've got the largest children's room around by far! Oh my goodness! They've got iPads, large research computers, the small computers for the little little ones, and even a 3D printer! It's so cool! Downstairs they've got the computers and non fiction, along with a few rooms for meetings and such. It really is a beautiful place.

Being able to request materials using the cwmars system gives access to a large network of libraries, so building size is not important to me. The location is convenient, and parking is generally easy except when school gets out. They were good sports when I added B to the start of their READ sign one April Fools day.

I spent one night and one day here in Holyoke and interacted directly with the city via their…read moreparking meters. I know parking can't be free but it should at least be painless to pay for it. And it was here using the Parkmobile app. Some meters are more expensive than others and some meters have longer times than others. I ended up at one two-hour meter and later, a ten-hour meter. Easy enough. Holyoke is home to the International Volleyball Hall of Fame https://www.yelp.com/biz/international-volleyball-hall-of-fame-holyoke and is known as the Birthplace of Volleyball.

White trim and white roof, it's easy to spot against the greenery and the brown paint of the school. Inside, two low shelves that were packed with mostly children's reading. Lots of magazines and light reading, excellent considering the location. This library does not appear on the Little Free Library map or database, so I don't know who the steward might be. There is a plaque on the front, "In Memory of our daughter Genesis A. Silva." [Review 1683 of 2024 - 1230 in Massachusetts - 22706 overall]

I discovered Gaylord Memorial Library about two summers too late into college, but I was happy to…read morehave found it nonetheless. They have an incredible collection of leisure books be they fiction or non-fiction. They have an entire floor in the basement dedicated for children. Their movie collection is also impressive (and I personally found it more rewarding than the library for Mount Holyoke College). If only I had known earlier... The only caveat to Gaylord is its limited hours. They are only open Thursday 1:00 pm -8:00 pm, Friday 10:00 am - 5:00 pm and Saturday 10:00 am - 12:00 pm so that maybe a little inconvenient. However, it is mostly run by volunteers and with a limited budget, I guess there is nothing much to be done. But it is really very easy to get a free membership and just drop by every now and then to pick up some good reads. This place also has weekly/monthly events for interested locals both young and old. They also have workshops for origami, knitting, etc. and various book clubs and teas. I still remember running by the library on warm summer afternoon and browsing through the shelves of romantic novels. So, I am putting this word out there mostly for my sisters in Mount Holyoke, and also the residents of the area: if you have not visited Gaylord library, you are missing out on a very good part of South Hadley.
