Second office of the day, I was here for three hours, sitting in the "lobby" area that wasn't quiet…read morebut I didn't need quiet today. Some comings and goings of a yoga class and another meeting which was fine. Inside the library, it's quiet and ideal for study. Not so much for making Zoom calls, so it was good to be out here where there are power outlets and still in reach of the wifi. You do not need to be a resident of Hardin County to use the library or connect to the wifi. You only need to be a resident if you're borrowing materials.

The wifi just pops on without needing a password or anything; what a thought! There is a garage underneath the place. As libraries go, this is rather retro in the sense that it still has a lot of physical books and some, but not a ton of spaces for people to sit or do meetings. I imagine the library of the future being a ton of little rooms for zoom meetings. That being said, this tiny town doesn't seem to place too much demand on the space, and it's a nice place to be.

I go in and I don't see the Passports for Books and Brews, one of the librarians actually had to go get it for me, I also asked kindly for stamp and received one. It accidentally bleed through (the stamp) she was kind enough to offer another one but, I told her it was ok no need. I do like this library but, I may go here just because it's close to work.

This has a great setup for Storytime. We came for an older teen book though. Lovely quiet area.read more

I recently attended a Fruit Tree Disease Management class there and was thoroughly impressed with the facility! It's a huge building with ample parking. It has several very nice meeting rooms and they offer all sorts of free classes. They put out a newsletter each month with all of the classes and events listed. I'll definitely be visiting for more events soon. One really nice service is that you can request books from the library and pick them up/drop them off at the box just outside Kroger in Brannon Crossing. If you live in the north side of Jessamine county, this makes getting library materials much more convenient.

The main branch of the Louisville library located at 4th and York is in a beautiful building,…read morewhich, according to a plaque, was built between 1905 and 1908 and donated as a gift from Andrew Carnegie. While a gorgeous building, I can't properly rate it as I haven't used the library as a patron -- I haven't borrowed a book or spent time in there studying, so I don't really know how good a library it is. But as a tourist passing by, it was a good place to stop in for a look at the architecture and to use their washroom and fill up our water bottles, which was very much needed on such a hot day.

Power outlets are a bit of a challenge but that's probably because this is a 110 year old building. Wifi worked well and is unfiltered.

So many reviewers have commented on the historic building and it's beauty that has lasted through the years for one of the first Carnegie Libraries. The Library serves over 30,000 library users, and has over 70,000 books.. Your library card opens up a world of information. According to the library website " your library cards gives you access to computers, hot spots, printers, data bases, ebooks, and much more." As for research there is the Kentucky Room that offers historical information about both Shelby County and Kentucky. In my review I want to exclaim about all the Programs and Events this library sponsors for adults, teens, and children. As lsted on the library website there is; Slow Burn Book Clib, Yoga, Brown Bag Book Club, Preschool Story Time, Chair Yoga, The Writer's Group, Baby Storytime, Cardio Drummer's, and Tai Chi. I have also read with interest in our local newspaper that there is a librarian that specializes in helping people with tracing their roots and completing searches on family trees. In addition to all the regular programs this prize of a library sponsors all sorts of continual seasonal events. You have already had the chance to read about the iceless ice skating but thats not enough. Events listed on the library website include Merry Mug Makers for teens, LaBuBu Holiday Ornament workshop for teens, Merry Clarkin Christmas Party, Festive Movie Night playing " National Lampoons Christmas Vacation" and more. Libraries have changed through the years but I am thankful to have such a complete and active library. The only drawback to this library experience was not their fault when the local Reformation Church had members check out books "as an act of civil disobedience to remove books that did not agree with their beliefs and refuse to return them" Fear not the list of books was printed in the local newspaper and once again I'm thankful that the Shelbyville Community answered the call tenfold to replace the books and provide money for the future to expand topics of interest to ALL PEOPLE.
