    I enjoyed stopping by here to check out this library! I've never seen one connected to other places…read morebefore so it took me a minute to figure out how to get in. This place is so open and bright. There was someone working at a desk right by the entrance, Sammy, who showed us around and told us about some of the things they do. I really liked their displays. It was cool how they even have a bookshelf dedicated to books that haven't been checked out in a while and will be excessed. I think they sell them on their carts by the entrance. I was hoping to find another library bookstore but oh well it was still fun visiting here!

    Searching for a good place to sit down and get some work done, I looked up the nearest library and…read morewas so glad to find this one! The entrance is really beautiful and has a path to walk around outside, including a park that would be awesome for you if you have kiddos. The library as a whole, both inside and outside, was super clean and nice. There are many computers to use for free as well as places to sit by the window with charging ports for any electronic devices you may need to charge. There were two study rooms that looks really nice, although they were both full when I visited. It would be awesome if they could add another study room or quiet area in the future! The kind woman at the front desk was super helpful with any questions I had and added a very friendly touch to my experience. I will definitely be back to get more work done or check out a book or two in the future!

    Really more of a 4.5…read more This branch is great, easy to access and always has parking available. Hours are good and the employees are always nice. I love NPL in general because they don't have late fees. I have taken advantage of this a couple of times when I forget a book is due and am rushing to finish it. I'm not sure when you would incur a fee as I'm sure they don't let you keep the book indefinitely. One of my biggest pet peeves about other library systems is that, at some point, a book I return somehow doesn't get checked in and is deemed overdue. I always have to return to the scene of the "crime" and tell them in person that I indeed returned it and to where I returned it. Frustrated, I've made it a point to return books direct to a human at this branch and have not had an instance of a book not being checked back in. [knock on wood] What's nice is that no employee has ever cared that I ignored the bin outside and the return slots found just inside the entrance on the right. They just say "Thank you!" One feature I feel would really make me a solid 5 stars is if we could pause our hold requests. I would borrow 50 books at a time if I could read that much or if I had no guilt for keeping some other borrower from a book or two or fifty. But alas I have borrower's guilt and must make the brutal decision to *pick* which books I'm in the mood to borrow at a particular time. Speaking of hold requests, I sometimes strategically wait until my hold period is almost up. One time, I went to the library in the middle of the day on the last day a book was held. It wasn't on the shelf. I showed an employee the email stating the held period ended that day. She confirmed it was a mistake and found the book in another room. Thank goodness. She also confirmed the holding period does not exclude the last day. Hopefully, it was just a one-time hiccup. Lastly, I used the restroom and though it was clean and well maintained the auto-flush was so violently loud that I almost let out a loud expletive. It makes the Xlerator hand dryer seem like a light breeze. Just something to keep in mind if you need to use the facilities.

    Front desk woman was rude and she said the library would close at 7:45 pm even though the posted…read moretime is at 8 pm. Then she proceeded to turn off the lights at 7:32 pm and told everyone the library closes in 3 minutes. It's sad that this is how our tax dollars are used.
