This is the 2nd time I've been here. First was to sign up for a library card 8 years ago. Ever…read moresince then, I've just used their online e- books - downloading and putting on holds - easy peasy! But, I found a book that is only available in hard copy. WHAT -- I'll make do. The book was on signed out by someone else and I put a hold on it - via their website. This morning, I received an email saying - your book is ready. It took 3 minutes for me to find the book, check it out and get back into my car. HOW COOL IS THAT!? Technology has really brought libraries to the future.

Is anyone doing Libray reviews? We are definitely not coming to the library enough. There are so…read moremany resources available besides books. We went to a circle time here, and a bilingual family game night. I also came to their art class. Over the summer they offered a free animal show. I'm blown away of how much is going on here. I highly recommend you should run, not walk to this library. I'm am so happy it is close by and it's open every day, even Sundays. Everyone I have met is super helpful. No complaints. Shout out to Emily! She is my favorite librarian. These are the best parts of community we must foster and take care of. They also don't penalize you for late fees and have no limit for checking out. There is a books sale area and a section that gives away food in the front. People bring things in and others take what they need. I absolutely love that. We need this more! The library did not pass their WC -1 on election day. Unfortunately our libraries will be reducing resources due to budget cuts. I will be emailing my Washoe county commission office about this. I encourage you to do the same.

Adj: Nicely "new" library that serves the community well and is a treat on a hot summer's day…read more We were visiting the Reno area and decided to make a stop here as our kids just love to visit other libraries. This library reminds me of so many in Elk Grove and other bedroom communities across NorCal that are very kids-and family-friendly and nicely designed for everyone. This library has been around since the early 2000s but they've really kept it nice. From the colorful palette in the children's area, to the soft warm tones in the grown up sections, all parts of this library is comfortable and cozy to hang out in. Kids section is tucked in and filled with shorter shelves perfect for them, and there's a couch/lounging area for parents to sit with kids and read together. Very colorful with lots of cute decors all throughout on shelves and walls. Adults section have lots of reference and non-fiction as well as fiction books, cds's, and dvd's. There's also a small "gallery" cove area with original art by local artists that resembles a lot like the cubism by Picasso. Nice. Several meeting and study rooms are available to reserve for quiet reading and studying. This library looks out to nice landscaping on all sides and esp. into the South Valleys Regional Park on one side which is full of green fields, very pretty. Overall, this is a lovely library and I'm glad we had the opportunity to discover and visit this Washoe County library in Reno.

Gave me something to do; to explore and Yelp while my wife shopped next door at the Nevada Marketplace. Also a cool find - Memory kits and blood pressure kits (not for me, but useful for my guests if/when they visit). Ambiance - HUGE location!! Not too busy, but definitely had some activity in all parts of the library. From the computers, to the kids area, private rooms, group meetings, etc. Open 6 days a week from 10am to 4pm, 6pm or 7pm. Closed Sundays. See website for specific hours. Cut and pasted from their website: "Sierra View Library offers: Seating for collaborative work or individual pursuits with personal devices. Free Wi-Fi and wireless printing. A youth collection and area with plenty of space for families to gather, play with games and LEGO, enjoy story times, or attend a variety of programs like Crafternoon. A dedicated space for teens to gather and work on computers in the heart of the young adult materials collection. Two reservable, soundproof Zoom ROOMs (one four-person meeting pod and one single occupancy phone booth pod). Public computers for internet access, research, and word processing tasks. One-on-one technological assistance through Washoe County Library's Book a Librarian program, including help with unemployment applications, job searches, and resume assistance. A wide range of books, music, movies, and books on CD, as well as downloadable ebooks, audio books, and magazines. We also have a growing collection of materials in Spanish." Service - Great, very welcoming. Greeted immediately when I walked in. Price - Free, thank you. Owner Comment - Thank you Washoe county.

4.5 stars. As a faculty member, the services I use most frequently are LINK+ and ILL. The folks who…read moreprocess my requests do a great job making the scholarship that we don't own accessible to me. Sometimes if it's a book I've requested, a staff member will even deliver it to my office for me! The stacks have a pretty decent selection of the philosophy monographs that I'd like to consult but that I don't already own. We subscribe to most of the academic journals that I need for my research and teaching. The building is absolutely beautiful, and it warms my heart to see so many students working in it. There are lots of computers, study rooms, and tables for getting one's work done. The Bytes coffee shop has basic snacks and drinks for folks who need a pick-me-up but don't want to walk outside to the Joe. I like how there are sometimes free recitals in the main floor rotunda. I often disappear into the Graduate Reading Room whenever I need to grade papers in a comfy chair without any distractions. I've booked the basement floor main room on multiple occasions to show films to my classes, and the process was easy and the technology worked. Why not a full five stars? I wish parking were easier. The course reserves system is a pain in the neck, which is why I don't use it for my classes. I wish the library would allocate more resources to subscribe to a couple key subfield journals that I have tried to make a case for us needing to own. I hear that working as a library junior faculty member is filled with drama. But all in all, the KC is great!

Yeah, it's awesome! Mathewson-IGT Knowledge Center is really a great place for many of your…read moreknowledge requirements. Oh yes it is. There are many things about this place that makes it awesome. The library is one. It is state of the art. They have the MARS system that retrieves the book that you request instead of looking for it yourself or a librarian. How awesome that you have a robot get your book for you and kind of creepy if you think about it. Terminators are real haha. No, but seriously a cool device and makes it very easy. There is also a small coffee and food shop next to the library. Their coffee is decent and I go in there from time to time to grab a cup. During the semester you can book a room in the library for studying. You can also book it for a group study session. There are also plenty of computers in there for students to use. You must have your student access account to use these computers. There is also a hidden library attached to the Mathewson-IGT Knowledge Center. There is access to that library from the north side of the Mathewson-IGT Knowledge Center and an elevator outside the north entrance of the Mathewson-IGT Knowledge building. At the Ground floor is the @ One Center. This is a great place for doing your homework. They have a lot of computers here. They have Mac and Regular PC computers. This is a great place for digital media students. You can also rent movies, video equipment, a sound room and much more. You can also print your papers here and also print out graphs, stickers, etc. I forget the proper terminology for it but it's a place where you can do printouts like Kinkos and I'm sure they can do so much more that what I know. But it's pretty awesome. I think they have a tutoring center by the south entrance. I think it's a tutoring center I have never used it myself but I saw a sign once. Also they have the Wells Fargo auditorium that holds artist presentations, public presentations, movies, and much more. I'm sure I am missing a bunch of stuff to add to this review but that is what I can remember. Thank your for reading my review.

I've never actually spent large amounts of time in this library. I use the outside automated book…read moredrop, which is so freaking cool and easy! You tap the screen to start, the door opens and the conveyor belt starts. Place your book down and a scanner reads the barcode. When you're all done, you get an email confirmation that your book was returned, so you won't face any late fees! (If returned on time of course). I've placed a few books on hold and picked up at this library. It's super easy to walk in, turn to the left, find your book (sorted by last name) and use the self check out kiosks to check the book(s) out. There is a staff member at a podium when you first walk in, so if you need help, they are ready and available to assist.
