The official holiday was Monday. They took the same holiday yesterday that everyone else got, but the narcissists want their own holiday, so took another day off with no regard or respect for the public. Please hire better and more respectful librarians, not these totally lazy, self-centered narcissists. No other library in California closed down and took off all day Tuesday. If you want to take three day holidays no matter what then find another job. The public has rights.

The library had put together packets with all the materials needed for a successful project, and set them next to full-size sewing machines. There were experienced seamstresses and quilters available to lead us through each step, and we both left with beautiful tote bags, complete with quilted exterior pocket. I look forward to growing my sewing skill set, and plan on attending another workshop.

The technology of electronic devices makes everything ten times more complicated . I used a very nice young Librarian who had to guide me through some challenging situations. Even she didn't understand why certain ways were not working. In the end we got through it. Eight dollars later everything was done. I ended up getting a new library card. This venture took both women at the help desk to get a ton of copies made. It did cost less at the library than through UPS. That can get costly. The Library staff was extremely professional and patient with me and my friend who are very technologically challenged.

Easy parking, quiet library with the perks of book sales, art shows and special exhibits to be seen when I walk in. The staff there are also cheery and helpful. The Healdsburg library is a small library with a big selection. When I want something, I just order it online and if it's in any of the Sonoma County libraries, it will show up in a few days in Healdsburg. They send me email when the item is available. The Healdsburg library also has a "Wine Library" where one can read books on all aspects of the wine vocation. There are many old books on the subject. The children's section is right by the book check out desk. I like seeing the children reading books or having a book read to them - and it's right by the checkout desk so they are being watched over all the time by patrons and library staff. The children always seemed well behaved; quietly talking or fidgeting in their chairs as they enjoy their books. Some big city libraries are creepy with people sleeping in chairs, learing around corners or aimlessly walking around. I've never seen anything like that in Healdsburg. I like that the library is close to Casa Del Mole so I can have lunch and purchase groceries if I need them when I visit the library. Did I mention the staff are helpful and friendly? They always greet me as if they are glad to see me... and I think they are!

Raising two children who learned to read and love books from this library, over the 34 years I've been going there I have never been disappointed. Historical notes: the benefactor for whom this building is named, Harriet Lee Hammond, was President Theodore Roosevelt's first wife's sister. The architect was the nephew of poet Henry Wordsworth Longfellow.

If it's all you know, then I suppose you wouldn't complain. But I hope you guys can get a major upgrade soon because people LOVE going to the cooler libraries, like the ones with private study pod rooms that close (ours have a two-person table, excellent for tutoring, a white board, sliding doors, and you just reserve it for up to two hours at a time); fireplace with reading nook, chairs, or couches; teen reading area with a booth for teens only; a large play area for kids with lots of toys, touch-screen computers, magnatiles, play tent, puppet area, foam dinosaur constructs; conference rooms you can rent, etc. NOT trying to knock these little libraries because I remember when ours was this small too -- just saying I can't until Fort Bragg can experience having a wonderful library upgrade like we had. (Well, our little library had to become something else, and a brand new one was built elsewhere, MUCH larger, with an outdoor area, turtle water fountains and everything). The coolest thing about the Fort Bragg library is it's right across from the coolest play park!!! So if you're heading here, plan to visit both.
