I came bumbling in trying to renew my library card, being befuddled as to why my name wasn't even on record... Thankfully, the librarian helping me was gracious and kindly explained the issue after a solid 5 - 10 fruitless minutes of searching. At the end of the day, I walked out with a new library card specific to this lovely outpost, and a better appreciation for all these people do. There are TONS of free events hosted all year round here, particularly arts and crafts geared towards kids. It's perfect when you want them to make some cute holiday gifts or decor, or just get a break when it's too hot to play outside. Of course, there are no age limits and no one judging here, so I've availed myself of the acrylic paints on more than one occasion, too.

What horrible library staff. This is NOT an AUSTIN library!

This makes the 4th one we have been to, Spicewood, Central, and Yarborough Branch have been previously visited. We want to see the differences and support the local library. This one had a larger outdoor area then most and even had a table and chairs outside to sit and read, not something we have seen anywhere but the central library. It also has some trails with art along it, as well as some interesting but creepy statues. A nice difference that makes it stand out. Inside they make full use of the space, they have a large kids area in the back and it seems very popular. Lots of Adult book clubs and activities as well as youth and children's events. It had one of the bigger collections of DVD's and Blu Rays for rent we have seen at any branch. It does have less computers for the public with only 6 or 7 but to be fair this is the first branch where they were not all full or close to full. In fact while we were there I think I saw one person using them. So it makes sense they focus on other things to match the area they are in. They have display caps with special displays like the picks of the people who work there, which is a nice touch. SHANA SAYS: I was impressed with the huge DVD and Blu Ray collection and I am not even a movie person, ask my husband as long as you have time to listen to him talk about it for awhile. The art outside was great, the fun artwork along the paths was unique and cool addition to this branch. They had some larger artwork in statues of some kind. I didn't get a great look due to looking at other things. This is extra nice all being outside for some fresh air and sunshine. They also have a large amount of adult and kids workshops and things to do! The bathroom was clean and they have a recycled reads area and a clearly marked hold area. They have board games you can rent and several other smaller touches that all add up. There was a cool display of cards that had a legal statement about how they don't wish to talk to you or give you consent in many many languages which was both awesome to see but sad we have gotten to that point. This location is not far, the closest one besides Spicewood Springs so we will be back to check it out more

This was terrific see. In the main library, end caps of the bookshelves occasionally have special displays of books. And on some empty spaces of shelves, you may find surprises like book recommendations or flyers/brochures. The library has many community events, including story time, adult programs, book clubs, and youth programs. There's something for everyone! I was here to pick up a book on hold; it was easy to find that area and locate my book.

I have had teachers that help me so much, I mean they go above and beyond to help you understand what they are teaching, they care. I dropped out of highschool 4 times and had to get my ged. This school has made the transition back to schooling completely easy and fun. As a normal student who has average grades and a average life this place is A1+ some.

This review is regarding the interactions via email that I had with the graduate programs director,…read moreDOCTOR Kathy Smith. Lots of emphasis on DOCTOR. After being accepted to the Texas State nurse practitioner program, I received communications from the university and the graduate studies department. Email instructions which appeared to contradict each other, or mislead the receiver somewhat, and made the university seem disorganized. Wanting to be conscientious, I sent a respectful email to DOCTOR Smith, asking politely for clarification. Her response was ridiculously arrogant and made it very clear that she was irritated by the email I had sent her for clarification. There was no explanation or apology for the different messages that I received from the university vs the graduate nursing department, and she made a point of stressing that students must refer to her as DOCTOR Smith. I have no problem with that, of course, since I'm sure she worked hard for her doctorate. Her rudeness, arrogance and obviously impatient attitude was a dealbreaker for me, the last straw after the other aggravating issues with Texas State University. I immediately decided to attend a different school, because DOCTOR Smith's behavior made it seem like a very bad idea to deal with this school for an entire 15 months! I'm happily attending grad school elsewhere, even though it is more expensive and the program is longer.

This large round rock served as a guide for the Natives and Early Settlers by marking a very important low water wagon crossing. Today, the wagon wheel ruts are still visible in the area which played a key role in the Chisholm Trail Also known to some as the Round Rizzle (or Da Rizzle), it has become the second fastest growing city in Texas. Da Rizzle has one main street where you will find several eateries and bars. RR plays host to live music at venues like Juniors and The Brass Tap, just to name a couple. In front of City Hall you will find a splash pad, and, a stage for live music acts. Also, along the small stretch of Main St, you will see creative art sculptures that you will find pleasing to the eye. Da Rizzle isn't all about what you will find along Main Street. Heaven's no. RR is growing so fast it's hard to keep up with it all. Lots of nice eateries along 620, Gattis School, I35 corridor, especially in the I35/1431 area. There you will find lots of shopping and eating. I could list a bunch of businesses in this review, but, it's more exciting to venture out on your own and find your flavor. Da Rizzle carries its own unique vibe to the surrounding area. It is surrounded by fast growing communities like Georgetown, Pflugerville, and, Austin. All of which have an interesting history. Like the Capital city, RR hosts it's own festivals, just not near as many. Whatever vibe you're looking for in a Suburban City, you're bound to find something to fit your fancy in Da Rizzle.

I absolutely love this community center. The Things have literally grown up here…read more Thing One was on flag football teams here for over 8 seasons. Thing Two has been here for multiple girl scout events (including today). I have voted, worked out, played racquetball, sat with my thoughts in the community garden and so much more here. This is one of the best community centers I have ever seen. As I have lived in this community for many years, I have seen this community center evolve from the basic amenities to what now houses an adequate sized gym, a racquetball players dream, an indoor regulation sized basketball court, a place to meet friends and so much more. It's often times like this when I realize that I am so fortunate to live in a community that is able to fund such an amazing place where the community actually comes together to celebrate our common interests. #bewellcentraltx

If you are searching for the popular authors, it's all here, and the prices are reasonable. Also, they have a music and movie section that's huge; it's very impressive. I remember years ago, I donated so many books here in one setting, and they were so kind about it. I must admit that there were some really great books in my collection, but I was moving, and it was impossible to take them with me. So, the best thing to do was to donate them, give them to someone else to read. Also, I have so many memories over the years here with my mom. She was an avid reader and loved this store too. We could be inside for hours, thumbing through books.
