Because of a very large donation(s) the name was changed from Spring Branch/Bulverde Library to…read moreMammen. Part of the donation went to double the size of the library to better meet the needs of this growing community. This review is the same as my Spring Branch Library review. When we had little kids, we felt it was very important to read to them and to keep them interested in reading as they got older. At that time, the Bulverde/Spring Branch community had our small library located in an old house converted into a library. As time went by, the small community continued to grow, and they decided to build a new library on top of a hill overlooking the Texas Hill Country and the busy US Hwy 281 and state Hwy 46 intersection. Later, a generous donator gave so much money that they were able to double the size of the library into one that rivaled the main library in downtown New Braunfels. The library offers so much to the local community. They have children, teens, and adults programming, makerspace, and meeting rooms. I found the meeting rooms to be so very useful as my coworkers work from their own houses. I was able to book the meeting rooms for us to work together instead of being at someone's house. Meeting rooms get booked frequently, so take that into consideration when planning. Besides all the library stuff, this location is also used as a voting place. They set it up for easy entrance, voting, and exiting. Voting early here usually finds only small lines leading to short wait time. Will I return? Definitely:-)

It offers a special teen section where anyone can peruse for a book, but only teens can sit and enjoy the dimmed and subdued atmosphere. This is quite the opposite for the bright and open children's section with a massive offering of books for the littles, ages 0 and up. Board books, picture books, short bed time stories, classic fairy tales, and the longer fare you might remember from elementary and middle school. Also with on this section, you will find a large meeting space for groups and readings, and a smaller play room you can book for play dates or just to get your gaggle of kids out of the house. They also sponsor the 1000 Books Before Kindergarten program as a push to promote parent involvement in their kids' early literacy. I haven't used the facility's other meeting rooms and study carousels, but they have much to offer the community.

If you are looking for a public area with plenty of spaces to sit, study, and utilize goods and…read moreresources this library is great but the redesign of it has left the collection woefully lacking. The idea of a library is to provide a resource of knowledge to the general public. Much of the viewable collection is complete schlock. Common volumes of classics in public domain, department store mystery novels, religious text not grounded in the study of theology, biographies of the most powerful individuals, etc. A collection should be representative of many narratives and viewpoints. I understand not including the most radical or controversial literature in public view, but the lacking in your collection indicates a stand against knowledge. While it is important to provide for the general public, it is also important achieve and provide for those looking beyond the readily available. Books often are out of print/circulation. Not buying or throwing out valuable resources is a detriment to the community and, on a long enough timetable, society at large.

For a public library, especially in a small or medium sized city now, the place is very welcoming and boy, inside, lots of chairs and tables to sit on and enjoy a book, a magazine or just gaze outside like we did. The second floor is where the books are. It looks like it has an extensive book collection within the bookshelves. It has private rooms to study and write if that's what you want. For the children, summertime is a great time to go to a library because they have individual programs to pass away the doldrums of summer. Here, you can play, read and have a class with other kids. The outside looks great too. We did not walk around as much although there is a small park located within the compound. They also have a separate bookshop, all within a short walking distance from the library. All in all, this would be a grand place to spend a couple hours to relax, keep cool and get some reading done. We all need it after a very hectic week in the hill country. We got hit with another epic flood and to be honest, I'm not looking forward to next July!
