I found myself making the trip to take care of some work, as well as flip through some books. - A lot bigger than I expected, and the building gives off a corporate business vibe rather than a library - Parking lot and street parking are available - 3 floors to check out, the 4th floor is reserved for (large) meeting rooms - They have multiple study rooms for 2-4 people, which you can reserve online through their website without a library card - Art exhibit on the 3rd floor - The 1st floor has a coffee bar, with a few pastries. They ask you to enjoy your food and drinks on the first floor. - Lots of seating areas sprinkled throughout the building - which is great! Easy to find a quiet empty area to work. - See a librarian to get access to the restroom, they need to buzz you in. The ability to provide so many amazing free services to the community is wonderful!

They really try to bring the community in for cultural enrichment through film, author appearances, swaps, classes and more. Just recently, they hosted Tibetan monks who constructed a sand mandala over a few days' time - such a peaceful experience to watch them create such an intricate piece of work. The library itself is very clean, spacious, and the architecture is very modern - a unique contrast to the century-old buildings that sit just across the street from it. This library is a gem that everyone in this town can be proud of.

The natural light finds its' way in every place that you need it to; the three chapel/citadel steeple-folds furnish us with it. Each study nook(separate from the actual reservable study rooms) all have windows on either side of the table. Internet use, now just as necessary as books in any given library, is easy to obtain. Many, many, many desktops can be found without a pilot. How nice, and rather unexpected, as it were. Next, of course, is the staff. I have yet to find myself being served by a staff member who wears the "I-don't-give-a-sh*t" face draped over their head. Not here. I am more often than not delighted by the staff without asking to be. Book selection is fine, more than fine, really. The monthly theme welcomes you at the door, and again at the mouth of the books in the rear of the building. This is oft-accompanied by "staff picks", which is so fun. You can't really learn much if you stick to your own tastes. No growth is done in this way; the staff picks will help in growing the tastes of the hungry reader who doesn't know where to go next, but does know that staying with what they know just won't do. I believe I've said enough.

This is one of the worst libraries in the nation. I've visited a couple of times, on a weekday and…read moreSaturday. The building isn't big: essentially one large room without structural/physical dividers. Thus, it's hard to escape the quagmire I'm about to describe. This location appears overstaffed, with employees sitting around, doing nothing but chatting about their personal lives. They (the only library I know) allow food/drinks inside, even readily supplied by onsite vending machines. A question: is the district that impoverished? Perhaps, get rid of some of those lounging employees to save your money! There's a security guard who's pointless. Why? Because the kids (mostly early teens) have control of the library. They appear in droves--more so on a weekday but still unavoidable on Saturday. They discuss non-age appropriate topics, leave trash everywhere, and act unruly to the max. But how can they not? The CHILDREN are being encouraged by lazy, useless library employees who say things like "oh, children, please don't do that" or "oh, please, you know the rules" but impose no direct consequences or punishment for misbehaving. They kids display no respect--and rudely talk back--because they see these GROWN ADULTS as their friends. Or like some feeble, ineffective clowns who are asking to be stepped on. Come to this library (especially on a weekday) and see the entertainment for yourself. Or wait until those kids grow up and watch them on the news.

Pueblo community is a very hit or miss kind of college. The current director doesn't care much for…read moreprograms like art and music and has been trying to get more donations by "sprucing" up the college with great big unveils like the redesigned student center, the new building, the panther statue, and the fountain that they redesigned. On top of the pandering she's also attempting to guide the college into a medical themed era by focusing on upgrading the medical programs and putting all the money behind them. The education curriculum is a little hard to follow. Most of the students attending here are new and often haven't been taught how college worked. So was the case for myself a quite a few of the friends I made. The first year I went there, I wasn't even sure of what I was doing. The entire time I was pursuing my art degree, they tried to get me into other "more practical" degrees and classes. They even went out of their way to try and dissuade me from joining classes such as French and Figure drawing. The teachers come in two "flavors" if you will. The kind that are masters in their subject and are just generally excited, and the kind that would rather talk about their personal life and blame the student for not learning anything in class. If you attend here, you will, undoubtedly, get a mix of both. The art teacher I had for most of my classes was kind and open and loved to nurse talent and knowledge separately and catered per person. Mr. McKeen went out of his way to make sure all of his students got the best out of their time and education in his classes. Other teachers weren't as helpful. The French teacher started out kind and enthusiastic, but by the second semester she had become rough, rude, and blamed class short comings on the students and not her lack luster teaching. In a personal experience, I had an English teacher pull me out of class and tell me to quit or else she would fail me. I had come to her several times in the course and asked her to better explain certain things she wanted and even wrote one essay with the book in my hand the entire time to make sure the formatting was correct. Despite my attempts she gave me failing grades and humiliated me in class in front of other students. I was in a program that allowed me to go to College while finishing high school and this would have meant not graduating high school with the rest of my peers. She gave me nothing to work with and no solutions. The problem was brought up with the school itself which forced me to transfer to a different class where my essays were actually graded as above par. I fear the teacher only got minor repercussions for her actions and is still teaching there. The fact that teachers are allowed to take prejudiced against students like that and continue to work there baffles me.

Had an English instructor that told the class the first day that she did not want to be there, she wanted to be a poet but could not make a living at it. Half the class walked out that day. The other half that stayed, did the work, but she tried to give very low grades to all. I wrote a paper and she gave me an "F" on it, but what she didn't know was that a friend of mine had reviewed the paper before I turned it in and my friend had a master's degree in English. After I went to the head to the English department and complained, the grade was changed to an "A". I have been told by many English instructors that my writing is very high quality and that I should be writing fiction books.
