Libraries can be one of the best places in a town. While Montvale Library is not the largest or the…read moremost bustling (the quieter the better, i say), it has a good selection of materials (books, music, games, movies, puzzles, magazines, hot spots), periodic events and book clubs, and some of the friendliest librarians around, just the types you picture.

There's a private lot so parking is always easy. Closed on Sundays.

However, the reason for not giving a 5-star review is entirely due to the attitude of the librarians.
