This is my favorite branch in the HC library system. Freshly remodeled, they have opened up the…read morespace and added more PCs and reading areas. A good selection of titles with various formats available although CDs are no longer available at this branch. That said, you can request a CD hold for pickup at the Abingdon branch. They will also order/request items they don't carry in the Harford County system from Baltimore for example. Also nice to be have the option to pick up your reserve items at the window. Most of the branches are open Sundays from October to April. I've always had a great experience with all of the staff at the various branches.

Not as big as northeast and not as much to do but still fun and something free to do. We have also been to Chesapeake city and rising sun. All great places to take your kids! I would recommend the northeast branch out of all of them because there is so much for your kids to play with, they always have some kind of little activity for the kids to do (last week was matching mittens on a large board) always very clean, bathrooms are super nice and staff is great, very helpful very nice and welcoming!

The only thing I wish is that they'd had a bigger collection of Easton Press/Franklin Press books - I came looking for more classics and I found this particular collection to be a little small. Otherwise, amazing spot.

It's stocked with used books, mostly from several decades ago, so don't expect to find recent releases. I snagged two Agatha Christie books, which can be challenging to find. It's a fun place to explore, and if you're looking for an older book, this is the place to come.

The ceiling here is gorgeous, and I like the listing of the various services offered to people in the area. Apparently, there was a guy who he thought was clearly high or similar, staring at anyone entering the men's bathroom. From the bit I interacted with the staff, they seemed friendly and helpful. I looked through a bit of their offerings, and they had a surprisingly large number of old films to rent, among other things. In short, a nice place to visit and take a load off.
