Searching for a book that the Main Columbus library has but couldn't find, we ended up out here…read more Way out here- it is pretty far out, though right near the high school. Plenty of parking. Bigger place than I expected. Large kid's area with activities. Kid K wanted a teen manga, and they have tons of those. They also have "stuff" to check out: backpacks, games, etc. We had to ask for help, and staff were super friendly and helpful. They weren't busy on a summer weekday afternoon. Definitely would be here often if we lived at all close by.

What a fun place to be. I could literally spend the day in here just getting lost in whatever…read more As we walked in we were greeted. As we walked past each station we were greeted. The entire staff couldn't wait to assist us. We received a free hour on line. We were able to print some much needed tax pages, for a very small fee. We listened to some music and read for an hour. If I knew we would be staying, I would have applied for a library card. That really opens some doors. With your individual card you qualify to check out books, cd's, dvd's and believe it or not, jigsaw puzzles. There are way too many perks to list here. There's plenty of parking and a nice outdoor relaxation area, too. 09/24

The architecture and the gardens are incredible. I know this is an overused word, but the gardens are truly magical. There are mini gnomes, fairy gardens, and bee houses tucked in among the flowers.

Beautiful new building, lots of glass. Open and bright inside. Large children's area. I didn't see the other areas, because I have a kid... K found what she wanted, admired the fish tank, played in the play areas. Very pleasant all around. We are lucky to have a great library system in Franklin County, often rated one of the best in the nation, with many branches, which are being upgraded regularly. Great staff, large selection, easy to reserve. Not to mention the programs and events and electronic offerings. Honestly, one of the centers of the community and a driver of excellence.

But this new library is incredible. I especially like all the "New Book" areas. Tons of spots for your little ones, your teens or maybe you just want to sit and relax and plug in or unplug. Inside, you would have no idea you are on busy Brice Road. Lots of parking, love the landscaping. We need more than 5 stars.

This is a nice library location within the Fairfield County District Library system. Though it is…read morenot a large building, they make very good use of space inside. It's cute, clean, and nicely decorated. There are a couple of stacks with books and DVDs, a small computer area, and nice seating. The back portion of the building is an Early Literacy Center for ages 6 and under and their supervising adults. It has a very nice set up with toys, imaginative play items, tables with coloring sheets and crayons, and, of course, books. It's also nice that they offer a sink with a stool available right in this section. The staff is friendly, and there is a parking lot. The outside of the building has a nice looking garden/habitat area, which is probably even nicer during warmer weather. We did, however, get a good eyeful of nature when a hawk grabbed its lunch and settled in to devour it. They are closed Sundays and have limited Saturday hours (10-2).

They hold 3 family storytimes every week and monthly programs. While most of their programs are for families they also have a homeschool program. The crown jewel is the Peter Rabbit Story Garden complete with gold fish. Kids just love to go check on the fish at each visit. They are closed on Mondays but they take that day to clean and disinfect toys.

Absolutely beautiful library! We came here for the Columbus Boom Festival and even though it was…read morepacked it was clear how incredible of a library this was. Multiple floors of rows and rows of books. Lots of rooms for various purposes. Plenty of bathrooms on all floors. And also a lot of options like chairs, couches, and benches to sit on. There were gorgeous stairs off the main lobby but also a spacious elevator. The cafe inside was also a nice surprise and the coffee was pretty good! All in all I look forward to visiting again!

This branch was located less than 2 miles from a friend's house where I was going for a party that day. It's right off the freeway and had plenty of parking. Having never been here before, I walked in and looked around. Hand to God, the 2 staffers I encountered working there both looked at me and smiled and said hi. Super nice for a 1st impression. I wandered straight ahead to get a feel for the lay out and was quickly able to find the non-fiction section. As I neared the place in the stacks where my book SHOULD be, I think I was holding my breath - having been unable to find books that were "in" way too many times. But sure enough - the book was right where it was supposed to be. I grabbed it and walked back towards the doors. I figured the check outs would be there - and they were. I love how simple it is to sign out a book at any of the CML locations. I punched in my info, scanned my book and printed the receipt which I use as a bookmark. WHile I don't have reason to get to this part of town, I would gladly return as this was a great library with excellent staff!

I live in the middle of this library and Reynoldsburg and I WILL ALWAYS go to this one!!! It's so…read morenice and clean and I love it!! They have a great selection of books, but if for some reason they don't have it, it's so simple to reserve the book! They also have a book drop off on the side in case they are closed.

Basically, this is an upscale drop off DAYCARE center and not designed for someone seriously…read morewanting to gain knowledge through a library. Children are running rapid, climbing over furniture and screaming..... babies having temper, tantrums and adult / staff doing absolutely nothing to correct the issue. Forget about trying to concentrate because that is not happening here. I have been at this location several times, mornings, afternoon and evening, and it's always the same scenario. Even with wax earplugs or EarPods you simply cannot mask the noise level. I've spoken with staff regarding the issue and was told it's normal. After school is out then you're dealing with disrespectful teenagers, sitting around, acting up and being disruptive and claiming all the decent computers just to sit and watch videos or play games. Can't they do this at home so that others can actually utilize the library as it was meant to be used? If the teens have taken up all the adult allowed area ( yes their sections for the age groups ) and there is a free seat elsewhere you NOT allowed to use it unless you have a child with you. If that's not discriminating I don't know what is. Wasted tax dollars at work!!! Would've been cheaper to build a free daycare center elsewhere. While I enjoy the futuristic modern design, the open center is complete wasted space only designed for aesthetic purposes, not useful. And lastly, with all the windows, it is absolutely freezing in the winter time....and yes burning up in the summer. I suggest New Albany library where the youth have respect for their surroundings, unless you're a deadbeat parent needing to pawn your child off on someone else, then the Gahanna library is for you.
