They have lots of kids books easily accessible and categorized. They have an adorable puppet area with hand puppets. There is a table with bins filled with things to do like magnatiles and train tracks. Great place to bring the kids on a rainy day or if you are looking for a fun place indoors.

What really sets this library apart though is that if you are parent with small children who have…read moreany interest in the performing arts, you will look this library's program of Tunes and Tales and Story Time at the John Denver Outdoor Theater. In my opinion, Allison is a world-class children's librarian in that she knows how to really engage her audience on a first name basis--I suspect she could have majored in child development or the dramatic arts by the way she performs stories aloud. I recommend bringing your toddler to this program even if I had to put a mask on my child and fly across the country to see it. It was a such blessing to listen to Heather et al accompany Allison's oration with a violin and viola pair--what a dream team. What I personally like most about this library are the periodical selections on the subtopics of investing and aviation. I enjoy watching AARP members researching investments on nearby tables as if their lives depended on the effort. I also like the DVD and CD selection in the basement. If I had believed my brother or knew the town was this amazing, I think I would have visited sooner!

Went to the new Clifton Library and it is a total disaster. Horrible parking scheme and the…read morelandscaping must have been done a bunch of 5 year olds. The maintenance on it must cost us taxpayers a bunch of hard earned tax dollars. Trying to find an entrance took me a very long walk for an 85 year old. I loved the old branch. Easy to get to and very easy to use. Inside this new monstrosity of a very expensive truly awful building was also difficult too. The only thing the help could say was that they did not build it. Yeah, BUT our tax dollars sure did. I could go on for 100 pages but you get the idea. My wife and I will never be back. It is a long drive to down town branch but we might be forced to use it. SHAME on you library board or whoever approved this horrible building and parking.

We stopped by the library today. One person was in there for a short while, but after 20 minutes we…read morewere asked to leave in 10 minutes. I said there weren't others in the library. I didn't say this, but I thought this: no where did it say the maximum time in the library was 30 minutes. Politely, I asked if we should stay until others came in and the capacity was exceeded. The lady librarian asked in a challenging and condescending tone (and I think a look of disgust), "Why would you want to do that?" I responded that we wanted to read some more books. She said, "No, this is no longer a place to hang around." What? I've never been pushed out of a library when there were no other patrons. I didn't see anyone else rushing to get in. I'm very irritated, and I think particularly in difficult times, you should be appreciative of patrons.

However, it was the first week of school and I imagine a quiet time as parents were busy getting kids ready for classes, it was still harvest and most of the farmers were busy getting crops in, and kids did not need to do research yet as they were busy settling into classes and meeting friends. However, when needed, the Cedaredge Library is there to offer all the library services needed by the community with a friendly staff and the room to learn as they also offer classes providing small-group instruction in the following areas: English as a Second Language (ESL); Literacy Skills; GED and Pre-GED; Basic Computers; and Job Skills/Life Skills.
