I have not seen a book on display about our Great President Trump or any of the wonderful women he has hired. Many books are on all the left wing radical women and DEI people Biden has hired. I feel this is racist towards white people and conservatives. Maybe they have the books but they are very hidden. The radical democrat books are on display. This is shameful. The library should be so proud of the President of the United States of American.

It's close to the Wellesley Square and the commuter rail station, there's tons of parking here for cars and bicycles and the entire facility is completely handicapped accessible. Wellesley's Free Library is a winner. This is a large library with a huge collection of books. I spent two hours at a study table upstairs which had a power outlet and access to a free and fast wifi signal. If only I needed books! [Review 10124 overall, 1710 of 2018.]

I prefer the Hills Branch when finding books for my kids, because the collection is more curated, and anything they pick up from the shelves is a great read. It's been closed for COVID, so I'm looking forward to seeing it opened again.

Great library! Very nice staff, has an old school charm without being depressing (like the…read moreFramingham Library) and lots of easy-to-book study rooms. Note, the study rooms are NOT sound proof. I did not realize this and booked one to take meetings on zoom, and was promptly asked to keep my voice down. Oops. Tons of tables around the library to set up and work in addition to the private study rooms. The only drawback is metered street parking only.

Needham Public Library is a great place to study or take out some books. There is tons of seating,…read moretables, desks, and comfy chairs. So even if it is crowded you will find a place to sit. There are windows everywhere which allows natural light to come in all directions which is great when you are studying for hours and need some vitamin d. The librarians are very friendly and helpful. You don't even need a library card to take books out, just your license. If they don't have a specific book you were looking for they will order it from another library and send you an email when it's ready. There selection is vast too so they usually do have the books I am looking for. They have two lots for parking so you will always find a spot.

The facilities aren't new or very impressive, but it's everything else that draws me here. Super Awesome Fun Time is an open story/music time for kids of all ages. It can get rowdy at times, but it's a full hour of programming: half an hour of staff-led songs and stories, and then another half hour of a rotating variety of activities (water table, painting, peg boards). I see kids all the way from babies to six-year-olds having a blast. There are 8 iPads for kids to play with! And there's always an activity to do at the table as you enter, a teepee, a basketball hoop, the list goes on. They also rent out toys! Isn't that genius? Kids get bored of toys so quickly, so borrowing them from the library and then returning them when the kids are done with them is the perfect solution. Third, there is NO LATE FEE. How? Why? Who knows. I think people are so bewildered by it that they have a "guilt jar" for some. :)

They even have museum passes which will get you into the MFA for $10 vs the usual $27!

They didn't have some of the books I was looking for but I could request that they get them from another branch. There is parking behind the library- which is a huge win because it's so hard to park on Main Street. The library also has a kids section, and lets you rent puzzles, dvds etc. I definitely recommend going here but maybe look if they have the book first if you're looking for something specific. The app is great!
