I'm from California, but every time I visit Utah, I try to make time for the Provo City Library…read more Honestly, it's one of my favorite places in Provo. There's a quiet reverence in this place that makes it perfect for just sitting and reading--or even pretending to read while you enjoy the stillness. They've also got a little used book section where you can buy books for super cheap, which I appreciate since I can't exactly get a library card here. And their digital collection through Libby is part of the Beehive Consortium, which seems to have way more audiobook and eBook options than my own Sacramento County Library back home. Major bonus.

I recently got a library card and am getting back into reading. The Pleasant Grove library has been…read moregreat! They have a wonderful selection of books. I love the display of the new adult books as well. It's easy to locate books with the author last name and I love that they put a sticker with what type of book it is as well. The employees are helpful and friendly as well. I love the fact you can also access audiobooks!

I love this Little cute library! It has a small town feel. On the smaller side, but mighty! We…read morelove renting movies from here. They have a pretty good collection of new movies and If you sign up for emails, they will email you when they have new movies to rent. Every time we come into this little gem, the staff is always so friendly and helpful. They are operating limited hours right now due to COVID19, but they make sure their limited hours are posted on their website's front page. When you do return movies and books, the only way their taking it back is the drop box behind the library. They are not taking any returns inside. In addition, they are not taking any cash for payment for any late fees at this time due to the pandemic. What I also love about this library is sometimes they have donated bread at the entrance, free to anyone who might need it. At this time I don't think anyone is allowed to sit and stay (and play) inside, so they labeled their hours as "Grab & Go" while they are open. I have looked into their digital selection, and it would be nice if they can expand it. I've put in a few requests for movies that they do not have, but have not received any response as to them making any effort of carrying it. Room for growth!

Library leadership is self-absorbed, complacent and only concerned about their own well-being. They…read moreare not interested in advancing the people they are responsible for leading. They are unaware of employee strengths and prefer staff "remain in their lane". They make little to no investment in getting to know employees. Leadership claims to have an open-door policy (come and talk) but what ensues is an excuse or dismissiveness with those who ask or bring forward potential problems. They provide little to no feedback and disregard problems, while micromanaging staff without understanding their needs for the job.

They are also presented in such a nice way on bookshelves. Again, I could see literally buying an entire bookshelf with all of the nice books laid out. A real collector of classics would also love this place. They are outside my price range, but real collectors would love the selection.

I've been here twice now. I'm from Los Angeles and both times have been amazing! There is such a…read morevast collection of books and literature, you could spend hours in there just browsing. The workers there are the best I've seen in a book store. They are all very knowledgeable about the store, its literature, and history of the items they have in store. The first time I visited I chose a passage from one of their Bibles that you can have framed on the spot; I also met Mr. Moon! I cherish this Bible page, and have it mounted in my office. If you're looking to buy reprints of your favorite books or looking to read something new, they have them available at reasonable prices. If you're looking for something older, maybe even a first edition, they most likely have it too. I couldn't recommend this bookstore more, and I hope to return again in the future!

I've gotten some great studying done here and also watched many Barbie videos in between homework…read moreassignments. Productivity and joy can definitely be felt here but I can't give it 5 stars because no men have come up to and me asked me on a date while I've been in the building. That just doesn't sit well with me...what also doesn't sit well with me is 2 oatmeal creme cookies from the vending machine in a row. My own fault but also...they enabled me. Don't study on the 2nd floor unless you want everyone to stare when you walk by with your rolly backpack. I recommend the 3rd floor if you want to study but not feel self conscious about any and every noise you make. I've made so many fun memories here... more than I probably should have

UVU has terrible parking, a decent library, lots of students, average (and a few above average) professors, weird student events, lame "dances", and extensive resources to help students with any type of problem, academic or personal or professional.

BYU will always have a piece of my heart…read more There's just something about this place--clean, peaceful, and buzzing with a kind of quiet ambition. Walking across campus, with the mountains towering in the background and the smell of freshly cut grass or melting snow depending on the season, it's like you're in a living postcard. The professors here actually care. You're not just a name on a roster--you're someone they expect great things from. And say what you will about the Honor Code, but there's a kind of clarity and focus that comes from being surrounded by people who are trying to live their values. Also, shout-out to the Harold B. Lee library. That thing is a fortress of productivity. I've never been more academically dialed-in than I was on the 5th floor during finals week with a Cookies N Cream chocolate milk from the Creamery in one hand and a stack of flashcards in the other. And then there's the people. You come for the degree, but stay for the lifelong friends, hallway chats, devotional takeaways, and yes--those divine CougarTails on game day. BYU shaped me. Spiritually, intellectually, even socially. Couldn't recommend it more.

BYU won't get a cent of my money, because of how terrible the campus security treated me. They don't believe in God, just looking like they do and acting high and mighty while they take your money.
