There is free WiFi and I had no issues with upload or download speed while working. There are tables set up with outlets for those who need to charge devices while there. My favorite part is the views that you get with sitting at the tables. You get to look outside at the water and beautiful landscape. I even went outside to rock in the rocking chairs for a bit! I would definitely come back to for a visit or to work again!

My last review for this library was about a year ago, so it's time for a little update. One year…read morelater and a lot has changed, an unrelenting pandemic and the frequency of my visits because of it. I don't know about you, but I've gone through stages during this pandemic, many stages. Stages, meaning the things I/we (family) have done to keep ourselves busy on lockdown. We started with cooking and baking almost everything trending during the pandemic (yes, I did Dalgona coffee, and yes, we made bread from scratch and and and... Eventually, that became a bit too much with too many goodies and not enough people to eat them, so we moved on to puzzles. Then started the Netflix/Amazon Prime binge watching...and THEN...I happened to see an update post of RHPL on social media about their reopening hours and new procedures. This is one of the best things that happened to me/us during this pandemic. I absolutely loved reading as a child but as I started adulting, reading became work related, emails, text messages, social media posts, headlines, articles, read aloud sessions and bedtime stories with kids etc. You get the point. They say it takes 30 days to form a new habit and now, I'm so happy I've had so much time during this pandemic to make it part of my daily routine. I am happy (and almost a bit sad) to say I have read more books in the last 2 months than I have in the last 10 years! But I won't cry over now. The ladies and gent here have been absolutely fantastic and I am soo grateful for their dedication and diligence during all this. They have been so helpful and so kind. Other than ourselves, my kids and I have seen the wonderful ladies at this library the most! These are some of their procedures during COVID : - masks are required upon entry, staff are wearing masks as well, hand sanitizer available - open for in-store pick up, signing up for library cards, pay fines. I think you can go in to use their PCs as I once saw a persno in the PC room, but it must be limited time, so please ask - when they first reopened, they were strictly doing curbside pick up by appointment only (15 min time slots), but since they have reopened the building for in-store services, they seem to be understaffed on some days and as a result of that, curbside pick up time slots are less frequent. If you prefer this service, it's great! You show up by the door by the drop boxes in the back at your appointment, you text them the number they give you to let them know you have arrived, pop your trunk open, they come out and load them in - when you arrive at the building, a librarian is inside the entrance and opens the door for you as the inside middle door is kept locked - returns must be placed by wooden carts at the entrance (next to librarian) - drop boxes are open during library hours in back of building - all returns are quarantined for 3 days (they backdate it so don't worry if it appears late, as long as you returned it before due date) - you cannot browse inside the library. However, if something catches your eye on one of the side tables, you can ask them to grab it and add it to your pick up. They ask that you limit to 5 items. There are tables turned over to the side that create a direct path to the front desk. There are tape markings on the floor to provide guidance for social distancing - you can email their gmail address to request for books, but I found the easiest way to reserve materials is simply to log in to your PINES account or download the PINES app and just place the hold there since it will tell you whether it is available or not. If it's available at a different location, you can place a hold and select the library of choice for pick up and they will notify you with the method of notification you have selected (phone, text or email). You have access to all the books in the PINES network in the state of Georgia. This is HUGE! - Discs or the State Park passes NOT available at this time - BONUS: you also have access to their other library apps, RBDigital for adults and AXIS360 for kids that also offer ebooks and audiobooks. This library may be small, but it's well connected and holds its weight in gold. I am so grateful for this library, especially during a time like this and my life has been enriched by it, as well as my kids. I am so late on this reading train, but at least I'm on it now. Now, excuse me while I read the book I checked out on knitting (LOL)....my new stage. Stay safe, Friends!

The Society itself was incorporated in 1839 and now holds the world's largest collection of materials germane to Georgia history. Hodgson Hall is a delightful building with a commodius interior and fine iron-work on the exterior, making a visit feel like a trip to a grand library at one of the world's great universities. Architect Lienau, though German-born, was one of the founders of the American Institute of Architects and though not as well-known as some of America's nineteenth-century architects, did some very innovative work including this building and it is fitting that the Historical Society is housed in a building of such note and merit. The collection itself is not only large but varied and while a lot of it understandably concerns the colonial and Civil War periods of Savannah's lengthy history, it also has interesting architectural and social content regarding the modern and contemporary history of the city and region. The Society also conducts frequent talks and events including special programs for schoolkids, partnerships with local colleges, and other efforts at outreach.

It's a beautiful, historic building, older than the whole city of Seattle (hey, Seattle is where I…read morelive, I can't avoid comparisons) (and yes, nearly all of the buildings in downtown Savannah are beatiful, old and historic, bear with me), and one of the perks of majoring in history at Armstrong in Savannah is that eventually you'll be admitted to the innermost sanctum of the Historical Society (after getting a membership, of course). You won't be able to do your Methodology paper without access to the boxes kept in a climate controlled environment that you have to sign for and can't leave the building with, but it's worth it to leaf through the 90 year old Grand Tour diary of the 10 year old son of a doctor who was one of the earliest users of the X-Ray. I think he died of radiation poisoning. Imagine that. It's a cool and quiet library with big wood tables, little lamps and a gallery running around the room. Just what you'd picture. The people working there are cool, quiet, smart and helpful, and if you appreciate libraries, history, books, and/or architecture, you should visit.

I go to BCAC to drop off the payment for the water bill. Pre-COVID-19, I used to go to the second floor and drop it off at the office where a clerk would stamp and date the bill upon receipt. Due to the pandemic, I have been using the drop box option where I don't even need have to get out of my car. The drop box is located at the foot of the median facing the building when you drive in. The building has quite a nice interior. The directory is located in the vestibule, as well as an Official US flag disposal box. The building has two floors and there are offices on both floors with two beautiful staircases on either side. The different services/departments that can be found at BCAC include: - Main Floor - Tax Commissioner Department of Division of Aging Services Environmental Health & Animal Control Public Health - Second Floor - Engineering and Planning & Zoning County Administrator Commissioners' Meeting Room Tax Assessor Clerk of Court Magistrate & Probate Court There is also a nice art exhibit throughout the building which I'm sure includes works by local artists which I think is such a great use of the space! The building is always pristine and very peaceful. I have seen the building used as a voting site as well. Parking can be found in front or back of building. Usually, I don't ever need to go to the back of the building for parking because there's always a spot in front, but there is a really nice firefighter memorial in the back. Stay safe, Friends!

What I didn't realize was that the Andrew Low house was nearby. He, of course, became one of the richest people in Savannah in the 1800s and had this house to show of his massive wealth. We stuck around for a tour that lasted about 45 minutes. Was pretty informative and learned a lot of things about Juliette that carried over to when we saw the museum a couple days later. One of the cool things we saw was an upright grand piano, of which only 3 exist in the entire world. That was pretty cool. This was a fun respite from the heat and wasn't overly expensive.

I picked out my pair when I went in and it took six weeks to get them back but for that wasn't a big deal. Five years without glasses what's another five years, right? When they came in I got them adjusted at My Eye Doctor and they were slightly irregular but they were able to fix that. I felt like there was a lot of love and care for their Clients and I cherish my new glasses that I got through the Charity. I think wealthy people and the Local Eyeglass places donate their slightly irregular frames for the Indigent Community.
