A great play area with train table, kitchen area, light table and other interactive toys for kids. There are computers for kid use. Along with other play are spread through the library. Near the circulation desk in the childrens section They have a list of all their programs which was diverse and for many ages. There is a pet Guinea pig.

As a law student, I am ALWAYS working on something -- may it be a project, a paper, or just general studying, and being my school is about 40 minutes away from NR, the fact that I can get a study room and use it FOR FREE makes it so nice. They have plenty of places to study, and even though the library is on the smaller side, there are still plenty of spaces to work at. There is an area right up front with a vending machine for snacks, coffee, and soda. Plenty of comfy chairs to use. Can't find something in the library? They are able to order anything from other libraries across Ohio! Free library card access as well. Just need a drivers license to sign up! Perfect place to study, bring your kids for activities, or even just get a book and read!

This is the smaller branch of the main Lakewood Library. I came here hoping to sit down to work but…read morethe vibe was quiet (only one other patron was there minus the 2 staff members and police officer) so I went to the main branch instead. This library is located east of the main library and a great option for Lakewood residents who live south of Franklin Ave or west of 117th Ave. There is only one floor for Patrons to use with tables and chairs scattered throughout. The stairs that you see inside lead up to a staff only area which I was told is used for staff offices. The elevator goes down to a basement floor which is used for storing books and other library items. There is also a security guard who stands by the entrance so you will feel safe I suppose. I remember visiting this location back in November 2017 and the staff members were super helpful in locating a book for me. Even though the library ended up not having the book (they were all checked out and there was a waitlist too - others had the book on hold), they still searched other libraries for me. I was very happy to know that staff here truly have a customer service outlook. Overall, I recommend this library for the service and ease of use (it is small enough where you can find books/videos easily). 4 stars only because the Lakewood library do not allow anyone to bring their own water bottle inside. *** This is my 82nd Yelp review overall. 36th review for 2018.
