I absolutely LOVE this library.

I love the PPLD system and this is one of the best branches. I especially love this branch for bringing my nieces and nephews. The children's area is so nice for smaller children. I can't say enough great things about this branch. Last thing the views are spectacular!

We love coming here because there's always something to do. They have read aloud time for the little ones, they offer a quiet area where you can study and also have a gaming room too. Of course my kids were excited and wanted to go in but keep in mind that there's certain times permitted. Staff are always so helpful. From the kids area, teens and upstairs at the customer service table, they're available to lend a helping hand. A bonus is that they offer a charging station for cell phones outside their building. You'll need a 4-digit code to access it. Definitely check it out if you're in the area.

This building is quite beautiful. I had heard about this library and I was in Old Colorado City…read morewith my bestie, so we walked in to check it out! First, this is one of three Carnegie libraries here in the Springs. Carnegie was a philanthropist and one of the things he built were libraries. His foundation would allow cities to apply for grants and agree to certain requirements and made sure they would remain public. Supposedly, he was inspired by the reading rooms that women were organizing throughout the country. The collection of books are only on the main floor of the building, but this library (like with most libraries in the Springs) is part of the Pikes Peak Library District so you can order, borrow, and drop off books at any of the locations within the system. This library will celebrate 120 years this Saturday on Dec 7, 2024. They will be offering a swap out of your library card with a limited edition card if you drop in on Saturday. Never stop exploring!

It's right across from the park so I'm usually running multiple errands at once and only have to park in one spot. They do have their own parking lot as well which is super convenient especially if you're just doing a quick book drop off.

PPLD has a strong system of reserving holds, you can go online with your card and select books and other resources from any branch and they will courier them to the branch you choose and set them aside for you to pick up. We have five big readers in the family and we home school, so this last service is invaluable. We can research which books the family can use or might be interested in, look them up in the online catalogue, and pick them up when they are ready. This has turbocharged the kids' reading because there are no gaps in reading, there are always books ready for them when we stop in town. Of course, they usually browse the shelves in addition. Also great for video resources. Last great use, there are a ton of school resources that look interesting but are too expensive to sample over and over. PPLD's reserve holds option lets me check out these resources, review them, and either decide they don't fit us or go ahead and buy the books for the school year. This doesn't just save us money, it saves us wasting time on curricula that aren't a good fit. Can't praise the place enough! Much of this applies to the other branch we use, also, so I'll be pasting this there.

Came here to the Aspen Room for a group meeting today. The room was clean, easy to find, and…read morespacious. Parking on the top floor was free. The library itself was updated but filled with vagrants being loud. This should probably be addressed, as I wouldn't want my kids there without supervision. All in all it was a good visit and I will return. I saw dvds as well as printed media, and staff was visible throughout. It was worth mentioning that there were armed guards walking around. Seemed a little odd, but I wasn't hanging out too long in the main area, as I was there for a meeting, and that's it.

My biggest complaint about this library is that I didn't see any form of free parking - it seemed…read morelike it was all metered. I understand this is downtown, but it seems like a barrier to entry for people who are not as well off and would need the free resources a library offers. Upon entering, the most jarring thing about this library is the "bleeding station" near the entrance (kind of weird it's not just called First Aid?) and the homeless man I saw being escorted toward it. Beyond that, this library was beautifully set up from what I saw (we didn't explore quite as much as usual due to the limited time we had on our meter) with the usual separate kids area (which had a sign that disallowed anybody from sitting there who wasn't with their child). This one didn't seem to have nearly as much activity space or resources as the other 3 libraries I've been to in the area, and seemed to have a bigger emphasis on baby and toddler age toys than anything else. I still think this is a great library, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come to this one, especially since I live on the opposite side of town from it.

It can easily be missed. It was a good visit, and I will return. I saw dvds as well as printed media, and staff was visible throughout. The meeting room was clean and spacious. With the doors shut, it was quiet and private. There are homeless people outside and inside, but they didn't seem to bother anyone. Although one did randomly enter the conference room and start washing up using the sink in the room.
