Wow, it seems like this library isn't very popular that it's going 13 years since Michael wrote the…read morefirst review and now here's me. That's a bummer as reading is fundamental and having a quiet place to work is also super important. I was here at the library for close to four hours (couldn't ignore my stomach any longer) pounding away at work emails, dialing in to Zoom calls and generally being productive. It was awesome to have a study room where I could make a little bit of noise that perhaps I couldn't have done if I was out in the main part of the library. They have lots of workstations here for people to browse the internet. Of course, the usual fiction, non-fiction, periodicals, reference and other library sections. The wifi works great and there are some power outlets around. [Review 19832 overall - 308 in Arkansas - 805 of 2023.]

The Northeast Regional Library serves the four Northeastern Mississippi counties of Alcorn,…read morePrentiss, Tippah, and Tishomingo. They are all different and unique in their own ways. The Alcorn staff are very stern and do not allow loud talking and are very firm when asking you to end your computer session. Whereas, Ripley staff let children run total butt-monkey-stupid-crazy and allow people to talk loudly on their phones and even let music play on their phones aloud without headphones. Established in 1951, the Northeast Regional Library is the second oldest regional library system in Mississippi. It is comprised of a headquarters library here in Corinth and twelve branches. Several larger branches including Corinth, Booneville, Iuka, and Ripley, have separate genealogy and local history collections that are available for in-house use. U.S. Census records on microfilm are available at several branch locations as are journals on genealogical research, passenger lists, and more. The upstairs of the Corinth Library is set aside for genealogy and I believe you still must be 18 years old to go upstairs. Through a grant provided by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, most branch libraries have one or more computers available for public use, Corinth has a half dozen minimum. All computers access the Internet and contain the Microsoft Office Professional suite of word processing and Power Point programs. Northeast Regional Library offer free wireless Internet access. The service is available 7 days per week, 24 hours per day. After hours the wireless connection is accessible from the libraries' parking lots and elsewhere on library grounds. The service is offered at Corinth, Booneville, Iuka, Ripley, Baldwyn, Belmont, Walnut, Blue Mountain and Burnsville Libraries. Meeting rooms of various sizes are available for use by the public in several branches of the Northeast Regional Library. Fund raising events which are held solely for the support of the library (such as Friends of the Library book sales) may be held in these rooms. Other events not benefiting the Library or charging admission can't be held at the Library. The sizes can vary from having the ability to hold from 50 to 100 people and they all offer kitchens or kitchenettes. Each summer, the Northeast Regional Library sponsors a Summer Library Program to encourage children to continue to read while they are out of school for the summer. 'Friends of the Library' support an individual library by holding book sales, hosting programs, and helping to publicize activities being held at the library. You can find many good books and even some very old books during these sales. I got 4 decades of National Geographic magazines, dating back to the 1960s for free, because they were taking up space the library needed for other purposes. All branches have music CDs, Movie DVDs and some locations have VHS tapes available for check out. Sometimes you can find entire full seasons of TV shows on DVD.

The interior is just beautiful, with reading rooms, classrooms, library, admin offices and a spacious lobby. The downtown streets are now filled with law students, grabbing lunch in between classes, studying outdoors and looking at the various condo choices available in the area. The library houses volumes of helpful law books and reviews, and is used by students and lawyers in the area alike.

We lived in Millington so we mostly went to our small, local library, but once in a while we would come here just for the experience. It is beautiful and well thought out. It's like an art exhibit or museum, and a library, the best of both worlds. The building is light and airy with lots of windows. As you come in, the walkway is engraved with beautiful patterns and quotes. Inside is colorful, with beautiful modern and historic displays. It is very busy, so prepare for a wait when checking out or needing services, but it's worth it. The only negatives I will say is that we had to get visitor cards and were limited on what and how much we could check out, because we didn't live in the Memphis city limits. (We're used to libraries being reciprocal within the same county in other states). Maybe this has changed since we lived there. We also had a couple of staff members who were rude, but everyone may have an off day. Visit and see this beautiful library for yourself!
