I visited the library after attending a block party rally event calling for more transparency in…read moretulsa courts by requiring camera placement in each courtroom and judge chambers. i decided to go in the library after the event in large part because of a previous court case i'd observed, in which a judge asked a party representing herself to provide copies of her piece of evidence, but because the court copy machine was not working, she had to go across the street to print copies from the library. and due to the potential postponement of a court date i surmise such a delay could engender, i'd decided to print a copy of the flyer i received promoting the event from the library printer, as i'd not used any copying machine at that library location since its remodeling. the print and copy station, located on the first floor, at about the middle of the room to the right, facing away from the main court adjacent entrance, was user friendly based on the experience i had. the copy machine charged 25 cents to print the flyer with color, and it would have been 10 cent if i were printing in black and white. further, the copy machine, located in the picture to the far left, includes instructions for how to use it, with the only confusion i'd experienced being which direction to face the document in the insert slot, so you might want to pay a lil closer attention to that aspect than others when printing a copy. lastly, having not visited the library for any significant amount of time since the installment of study rooms to the second floor, i got a close look into some of the several reservable glass enclosement quiet rooms overlooking downtown, a distinct feature among all library locations i've visited, in tulsa or otherwise.

Not very big itself, but I liked the design where it's like you are reading books under trees. The staff helped me sign up for my first Tulsa County Library card and went through how to order things online. Did you know you can check out 50 items? I didn't. That's a lot. Managed to check out two books and two dvds. I'm a bit of a book nut, but because Marie Kondo says I can only keep 30, being able to borrow books from a library will help me reduce clutter and finally find joy.

There is…read morea play area for young kids with lots of toys to play with and of course, the children's books are right next to it. I saw puzzles and a chess set and lots of seats so you can sit down, relax, and read a good book or play on your laptop, phone, or iPad. There's also several computers available to use if you don't have your own. The librarians are really friendly and helpful as well. They offer printing, fax, and scanning services for 10 cents a page. Overall, a clean, quiet, peaceful environment.

Pros: I'm pleasantly surprised regarding the size of their collection (well at least for the things…read moreI'm interested in). They have new released before the libraries in much larger cities (Houston & Phoenix), shorter waiting list times, and a wider selection of audio books Cons: my kids keep getting library fines.

No one can enjoy themselves with the Karen working, and it honestly ruins the entire experience of a library. Secondly, no where in the policy or guidelines does it state that people can't sit at the back of the library, but yet today while I was sitting there, a police officer pulled up and told me that a librarian had called the police and said I needed to move. A very Karen-like move for a certain librarian to pull off. I had to grab my things and move to the front of the library, just because a librarian woke up this morning and decided she wants to be a Karen today.
