I came here for the first time this past weekend to finally sign up for my library card. I'm…read moreimpressed, even surprised, by the quality of this library for it being in Lubbock. Also, this location was my only choice because it's the only branch open Sundays. The collection is entirely on the main floor. When you come in, fiction is mostly to the left and through the center, children's in the back left corner, non-fiction center back, and a huge section for genealogy research in the back right corner. In the front right side and corner is a computer area open to all visitors - it seems like a first come first served situation. There's also an armed police officer who seems to be always on duty here at a desk near the front. It's actually my first time seeing this in a library, and I come from a much larger city. Staff was helpful in getting me signed up. Probably the greatest benefit is in being able to join the Libby app for ebooks and audiobooks. But nothing will beat the brick and mortar library for things like graphic novels and a nice focused place to study.

Lubbock's central library, Mahon, is near the Civic Center in downtown Lubbock. Plenty of…read morecomputers, always a cool place to hang on a hot summer day, and a small, but decent supply of fiction and non-fiction books. For a growing city, I think they should be expanding their stock of books, but you can generally find a book or two on your topic of interest.

This is a small library right off the highway in Wolfforth that perfectly serves the small town…read morecommunity right outside Lubbock. They especially cater to young children. You can often see groups of them here along with parents doing storytime and other activities. It is, therefore, not usually quiet here as the building is also quite small. There's also a huge selection of mostly fiction, a smattering of nonfiction, DVDs, and a waning collection of audiobooks on CDs. Unfortunately there is not a music collection. You can also access a digital library on the Libby app with your membership here. Through there you can find even more audiobooks in particular. There are computers with internet access and limited seating for reading or study. They are always clean and organized. There's a community info board in the lobby, a "free stuff" box, small selection of books for sale for a quarter each, and some library themed things for sale too. Staff always does a good job of displaying monthly themed material. Recently they put up a display of banned books - how edgy! Check the calendar of events for the occasional movie nights and more.

Great library for a small town, WIFI available, rest rooms are clean, computers are available too,…read moreand they have some children programs. The size is small, but efficient enough. Noise level is average, since they have children.

If you're a Tech student, the Library is by far one of the best places to study…read more They have at least 3 floors, and a basement, all which have computers available to you. On the main floor theres a help desk where the workers are very knowledgable and are always willing to help you or direct you where you need to go. If you're not comfortable studying or being around people, they have study rooms available that you can book online through the TTU website. The parking lot is HUGE so unless it's finals time, you'll always find a spot. There's a little cafe to the right when you first walk in, but it is only open during certain hours. It has a lot of different things to choose from. The library also offers free wifi and WEPA printing.

LOVE this library. This is where I came to work rather than my on-campus office (I was a Graduate…read morePart Time Instructor at the time). Amazing set of stacks, a 3D Design lab with gaming software, and the whole downstairs (main floor) has been redone since I came in 2008 with projection screens and collaborative pods for group work. It is a dream come true for group projects! Really great use of its funding. Thanks Mike Leach! And others. Illiad always got my article requests quickly and correctly. Often has in-progress work presentations, like poster sessions, for undergraduate and graduate research. Lots of tables for working, little cubbies for privacy, and good wooden chairs that you can sit in for hours without getting sore! :) Love this library and I probably spent 50% of my 5 years of PhD work in its halls.

This is a smaller library branch but it has all the things you need including comfortable chairs for sitting, study carrels for working, tables for coworking and a large selection of fiction, non-fiction, periodical and reference materials. The free wifi worked well and the seating is comfortable. The library also has public restrooms and a huge parking lot. I enjoyed my time here. [Review 17432 overall - 443 in Texas - 950 of 2022.]
