From the teaching to the food, everything was amazing! Our instructors were so sweet too. They let us know everything we could be doing to perfect our food.

Love seeing so many community members together in a shared space. Everything was clean and the coffee was great! I would ask for only 2 pumps of lavender though if you don't want it to be too strong. Highly recommend getting out of the hot summer weather and spending a day in the library.

Horrible. Snobby librarians, trying to rush you out as fast as possible. Love this branch but the…read morestaff are just so disrespectful and rude. Can't believe my tax dollars are going to people that just sit around and are mean. If I visit again I'm bringing other people to teach them a lesson on manners that's for sure. (Just a civilized talk, violence is horrible). I will be reaching out to their director who is luckily a friend of mine.

Libraries are great. I think most people have fond memories of visiting as kids and if you're like…read moreme, those memories are very suburban. The libraries I grew up visiting had 90s flair, and while amazing spaces that kept me entertained all summer long, they didn't have the grandeur of an iconic inner city library - like this one. The first time I stepped foot in here as a young adult I was in awe. It's just a gorgeous building, and incredible atmosphere to sit and read. The parking garage is set up to look like a bookshelf which I think is cute, and I love how you can just get lost in here and enjoy the space. It just FEELS like a library which sounds dumb but is true. What pushes this into five star territory for me though is the rooftop terrace. On a nice day there really isn't a better spot for an urban picnic.

The downtown library is a nice building…read more I specifically wanted to use the study room but you can only reserve it a max of 2 hours and then when your session over you can extend it only then if no one books it.

Inside, there's a decent quantity of books available, but what's nice is they always have the New York Times bestselling books present and on display. There's also a very large selection of dvds and CDs and other multimedia content. This library offers 6 public computers with full Internet access and a few others with library catalog capability. There are plenty of chairs, desks, and couches available for leisurely reading or quiet work which I highly recommend taking advantage of. Furthermore, there is a large room on the north end which is used for special activities, including children's readings and art projects! One more thing I really like here is that they are open till 9 pm on Monday and Thursday evenings... Very accommodating for later schedules. A downside is it's not open later more often... But what can you expect in a small-town library? The staff here are super, super friendly and a huge help with anything the customer needs. The facilities are new and nice. Come and enjoy this library as much as I do!
