Cool little town up North of Pittsburgh. Granted, I was only…read morepassing through on a motorbike adventure for an hour at most, but we stopped at the red caboose (really cool), the flying saucer (even cooler), and the coffee shop (cool owner) next to the "Peace Post." Nice place, and I wanna come back again and see the train station and the historical society, hopefully at a time when they are open. Also, a big shout-out to the Chinese restaurant next to the flying saucer, as they allowed me to use their restroom. Cheers!!!!

Besides the great name which always elicits comments (almost every time I go through Customs the agent makes a crack about the Mars address on my passport) it has a small business district with a few restaurants, including a couple decent ones, a legit grocery store, a terrific post office and library, an old school hardware store, a barber shop, a coffee shop, real sidewalks, and a space ship. They have hosted NASA here for celebrations and hold an annual apple festival every fall. I mean, this is a true slice of Americana right here in the North Hills. If you haven't been here before, stop by sometime. Pick up a t-shirt. It will be a dialogue starter.

Northland Public Library participates in inter-library loaning, but it has many of its own resources: books, magazines, CDs, DVDs, audio books, e-books, downloadable music files and videos, electronic periodicals, state databases, desktop computers, Wi-Fi, resume and job-search assistance, board games, video games, Virtual Reality headsets, American Girl dolls, yoga kits, radon detectors, reserved meeting rooms, a tutoring room, a Learning Garden, a store, etcetera. In December 2025, Northland Public Library completed a construction project that included a two-story building extension, accessible lower-level entrance, Commonplace Coffee cafe, teen space, mezzanine reading level, upper Conference Room, staircase, centralized service desk, and relocated Book Nook bookstore. For years my husband and I have been customers of this library. Most recently my husband frequently checked out DVDs, and we drank beverages in the Commonplace Coffee. We thought that the renovated area looked very nice and was a significant improvement. We really like this library and expect to use it more in the future.

The Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh is a public library system that was funded by the industrialist…read moreAndrew Carnegie in the late 1800s. The library system has about 20 locations throughout the city, and this location in the Oakland neighborhood is the main location. According to the library's website, this library contains over 2.5 million items, including nonfiction books, fiction books, newspapers and magazines, government documents and patents, genealogical archives, maps, sheet music, vinyl records, music CDs, musical instruments, movie and TV DVDs, artwork, etcetera. This library's other resources include public computers, free Wi-fi, printers, photocopiers, scanners, fax machines, meeting rooms, resume and interview guidance, a RAD pass for free or discounted cultural events, etcetera. Since my previous review, I did obtain a library card. During a recent visit, a very friendly and helpful employee named Isaac helped me to log into two databases about grants and foundations. The computer room was large, had plenty of available desktop computers, and was quiet for me to do my research. I feel grateful that this Carnegie Library gives me free access to these databases. For my most recent visit, I attended a free day-long workshop about grant-writing. it was held in the lecture hall, which was a bit of a challenge for me to find, but an employee gave me directions. The workshop was very educational, and I greatly appreciated that it was free.

While this library is a wonderful establishment and serves the community of Beaver unceasingly, it…read morehas advanced room for improvement. The building is getting old and needs some rejuvenation. For instance, most of the building is adorned with large glass windows, especially in its center, making it quite hot and uncomfortable to sit for extended periods of time. A few blinds in the library would eliminate this and the facility would be much more comfortable and cooler during the summer months. The internet connection is something that is a lot left to be desired; I have registered complaints about this numerous times to no avail. In the back of the library, the signal is weak! You cannot even watch YouTube videos or listen to a podcast without an interruption eventually occurring. Something simple like installing a router above the ceiling would eliminate weak spots. Just a few of these simplistic improvements would be outstanding. That being all said, the STAFF is amazing, a VAST collection of books, and, specifically, an extraordinary collection of local and Pennsylvania history that few public libraries can match! It's a relaxing place to write, research, and conduct whatever business your intentions instruct you.
