A great play area with train table, kitchen area, light table and other interactive toys for kids. There are computers for kid use. Along with other play are spread through the library. Near the circulation desk in the childrens section They have a list of all their programs which was diverse and for many ages. There is a pet Guinea pig. Plus some sort of interactive and themed area. Like writing a letter to Santa with reindeer food. My kids had a great time and can't wait to come back!

I loved the layout of the store and all of the unique touches to really tie the genre into the decor. They carry much more than books. I saw bookmarks, candles, local made gifts, stickers, collectible Goosebumps items, and much more. I thought the prices were affordable and comparable to most bookstores in the area. This was much more than a warm stop on a cold day. I'd recommend to any bibliophile!

Located close to the school and rec area.

Return policy; books are all returned in the slots outside. You just put them in there and they will take care of them! The workers are all friendly and eager to help with anything you need. The library is clean and organized. For those walking in and not sure what they're looking for there are countless books set out with different recommendations. For those who know what they are looking for, everything is always in order and easy to find. I come here often, and I plan to continue that!

Love this library I…read morecan't wait until things go back to normal at this library. Not only do they have a friendly staff and a huge selection of movies, books, music, etc. They have wonderful programs for children and adults. The children programs were awesome and available for all different ages. They also had special events like hatching chicken eggs and summer programs. The kids section also had a great play area that my kids loved to visit. Even the adult programs were super popular.

We have an 18 month old and they have an awesome selection for her. Plus for about two months they give kids under 18 years old a free lunch. Plus they do give aways and have prizes. They do an extremely great job. It's extremely clean. They have computers up stairs. And a solid collection of movies to rent out. My wife and I wish our home library was even half of what this one is.

This is clearly a nice library for a small city. The Art Gallery was the touch that for me made a 5…read morestar rating. I spent the majority of time in the Art Gallery and the children's area. The artist featured was Nancy? The paintings were colorful and bright. Our 1 yr old grandson especially liked an aquatic theme painting. Many of the paintings have a price tag and are for sale. The Children's play area was a little cramped but offered many choices. Felt a little enclosed by massive stacks but still a nice area. book selection for toddlers was very good.

I've always really enjoyed going in here. They are very friendly, and the process for reserving and…read morechecking books out is seamless and easy. They also have a notary service, which was very convenient for me when I needed something notarized in a pinch. The only slight issue is the parking.....the lot is small and fills up fast, so chances are you may have to park across the street. But that is such a minor detail. Everything else about this library is top notch!

With FREE classes for kids and adults (AND the obvious -- a selection of books,) you can't beat it. Authors, book club, photography, writing classes, themed children story time, etc. We take advantage of all the activities, especially during winter! If you have a little one there is a mix of fun from Music & Movement, Play Group, Story Time (for different age groups) and more. The classes are pretty full, so there is success in numbers. The staff is friendly, happy and helpful, so that keeps me coming back. Bravo for being a fantastic spot for the community, beyond books and resources.

I could easily spend hours here, and did, last Sunday! What gorgeous decor, layout, vibes and selection they have! Workers were really friendly as well. The prices of books were high though--no discount at all for new books. Fine to support local but this is why the library will still always be my favorite. What I was confused about is how the books are organized because it is not by author nor by used/new. I'm pretty sure new books were placed right next to pre-owned ones on the same shelf... I did enjoy all the gift and merchandise displays. They were all set up in a way that looked irresistible to buy! My BF bought this photography coffee table book he was really excited about and I got a children's novel illustrated by Jon Klassen (big fans!).

They also have a cute gift shop that has very cool gifts and handmade items as well. Totally a great find if you are looking for something fun to do, or just looking for a few books.

The library is on the small side, but it's much bigger than what I would expect given the size of the town. Most of the books I've wanted to check out have been at this location, and those that weren't I was able to put on hold and then pick up from this location when they were ready. This library is part of the MCDL system as well as CLEVNET, so you're pretty much guaranteed to find what you're looking for. Everyone here, from the manager to the rest of the staff, is super friendly and always ready to answer any of my stupid questions.
