The staff here are generally very helpful. The reference staff are resourceful and have assisted me plenty in aquiring obscure titles via intra-library loans, and call me promptly by phone when an ordered title is received. The place is always clean and neat looking both inside and out. The building design and layout is uniquely attractive and the floorplan is spacious and efficient; the views of the surrounding areas are calming. There's a very nice quiet room upstairs, with a faux fireplace and comfortable seating. The book-drop slots and window-service drive-through are convenient. I've been to more than a few libraries. South County can hold its own with any public library anywhere. Of course that's my opinion, so check it out in-person and see for yourself.

I never feel stupid when asking questions! Lately, I stopped in because our printer wasn't working and they helped explain how to print photos from the PC's they have available. I did that for a nominal fee and was VERY impressed by the quality! I just cannot say enough good things about this little library! HINT: Just be prepared for the kids wanting to check out the church playground, which is essentially in the library's backyard. :-)

I absolutely love this little library. A true gem among Boston's treasures. Walking through the…read moredoors is a step back in time. Presumably built in the 1950s, it remains virtually untouched by modernization (aside from the computer terminals, which are free to use for all visitors). Old wooden bookcases house a vast collection of adult and children's books. Old-school tables and chairs still adorn the (large) children's section. Even the heavy gold curtains hanging in the windows reflects the ambiance of yesteryear. And the librarians? Well, just as warm and inviting as the library itself. If you ever visited libraries as a child, you'll have a sense of revisiting your childhood when you visit the South Boston Library.

Adults can get their taxes done (for free) with AARPs volunteer program. The library has toys for kids and wheelchairs for adults. The web site has useful information on events and books. The employees are so nice. There is a private study room where you can have a low key celebration or eat. You just need to reserve the room if you want to guarantee the space and you need to clean up your mess. The soft chairs are comfy. If I had kids, I would bring an adult to supervise and check out books while another adult went grocery shopping. This place is awesome.

Located in the Downtown…read moreRoanoke area, in a building that went through renovation from the original, it maintains the classical relaxed look, yet at the same time, it has those modern touches that has kept it up with the times. It now has a Virginia Room where people can do research on the history of Roanoke, among other things. And around this area it has meeting rooms where one can reserve to do research or to meet. Besides the traditional bookcases with books, the library has an extensive computer area located in the Darryl G. & Young-Ja Howery Mezzanine, as well as a cellphone charging station. I tried charging my cellphone there with the cords provided and a notice came up on my phone that this cord was too slow to charge my phone and to try to use another one because with this one it would take 8 hours to do so. This is one of the reasons I only gave this library a 4 star rating. The intention to provide modern services was there but not the execution. I brought it to the attention of the librarian to see if it could be corrected for the future with better charger cords, or even better, with devices where you can rest the cellphone on them and they would automatically charge the phone. I'm sure that after the Library Director reads this review he will follow-up because he is a very knowledgeable individual and wonderful human being. The librarians here are all very friendly and helpful. In the basement of the library the Blue Ridge Literacy is located. This is a place where among other this they teach English for free to immigrants new to the area. A reality that I can not leave behind is that many of the homeless of our community frequent the library during the day as a refuge to keep cool in the Summer and Warm in the Winter. Something that the library could do is have a station with booklets and information to help these write a resume, and look for and apply for a job using the computers. It could also offer workshops in one of the meeting rooms to teach and develop the skills needed for them to overcome the adversities that lead them to be homeless. Throughout the years the library has played very important roles in the community, and through creative thinking and innovation, it can find new ways in the future to meet the community's need head on.
