I love this library…read more It's such a great location-- right next to the canal for a study break, near cafes for good food and caffeine if you're pulling a full day of studying. The study rooms look out at the canal, providing a beautiful view. There's also a "reading garden" which is a cute little courtyard if patrons want to read or study in the sun. The librarians are all very nice and helpful, of course. I also enjoy participating in the summer reading program, since they have a program for any age group.

I'm attempting to visit all 31 Monroe County Libraries this year, and Pittsford was next on my…read morelist. Perk one: it's attached to a Starbucks! (And super close to Pittsford Dairy) I actually passed it initially as it looked more like an office building. I parked on the street but I'm 99% sure there is a lot behind the library. It's spacious, with a large hallway when you walk in displaying many used books for sale, as well as a free shelf. The "bookstore" is self serve with a cash box, and most I saw were priced at $1. Staff was friendly and helped me locate a book for my book club. This is an impressive looking library with 2 floors and big, sunny windows. If I had more time, it would have been a great place to spend an afternoon. I believe there is also an outdoor deck, but doubt that gets much traffic in January!

Whether it was laughing away a nervous breakdown in Circulation during midterms, scaling the roof as a freshman rite of passage, wasting time and tuition by playing online Monopoly in Art/Music (me, always), or just taking a much needed snooze in PRR, good ole Rheezy was and is a central staple of everyone's UR experience. Protip: best place to nap for maximum comfort and minimal judgement is in Welles-Brown. Underrated bathrooms? 4th floor, religion department, for those that like to take care of their business in peace without having to deal with the gripping fear of auto-flush splashback.

Take the stairwell or elevator to the ground floor to enter the library. Once you're inside, you'll forget you're in a retail plaza. This was my first time here and I noticed large sections for children and teens, a quiet room, a nice selection of foreign films, a whole shelf of Hallmark movies, five big shelves of large print books for those of us with bad eyesight, and a lot of comfy places to sit. You can even check out a tote bag to bring your items home! If you walk by the library on the canal side, you can see in to the cozy reading area where the windows are lined with books. This is a welcoming and well stocked library that I will definitely return to.

I'm not sure why it's taken me this long to write a review for this library, but let's fix that…read moreright now. I really enjoy this location. You get the charm of the original building paired with the modern beauty of the Bausch & Lomb structure both are worth seeing. The library offers a ton of programs for kids, teens, and adults. Definitely check their website, because there's so much going on. Becoming a cardholder is easy, and once you are, make sure you look into their VIP section, you can snag free or discounted tickets to local attractions. You can check out physical books, audiobooks, and ebooks, and they're great if you need computer access or printing. They also have plenty of study areas and quiet spots to get work done. Honestly, they offer more than most people realize (myself included until recently!). The only downside is parking and it can be a bit tricky. I'm not sure if they validate or offer any vouchers, so it's worth asking. I was lucky enough to find street parking... but yes, you do have to pay. A great library with so much to offer. Highly recommend exploring everything they provide.

I enjoy this library for the materials but also for the wonderful events they host. This year I attended a very informative lecture on mushroom and foraging. Most recently I attended a book signing and talk with Best selling author Shelby Van Pelt. The event was quite large with 400 people in attendance but the staff did a great job setting everything up and running smoothly. Shelby Van Pelt gave an engaging lecture followed by audience Q&A. We had time afterwards to get our books signed and meet the author. The library also had complimentary water and cookies to end the evening. One of my favorite libraries in the area. I hope there will be more events to come.
