its usually a good atmosphere BUT -- there are just a FEW obsessive compulsive regulars who ALWAYS sit at the same computer & IF for some reason you happen to sit at "their computer" they become VISIBLY UPSET not just that they can't sit at "THEIR COMPUTER" (which is NOT theirs, but for ANY patron) but they actually become ANGRY at the person sitting at "their computer". It happened to me once-- a female regular actually started muttering negative things about me because I happened to sit at "her computer" . This was around 12 noon-- NOT opening time. She really believed everybody in the world who visits the library should KNOW that this is "her spot " ? This was BEFORE I realized that she had OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) -- . but the library should NOT be enabling this sort of addictive repetitive behavior especially because it leads to this IRRATIONAL SENSE of ENTITLEMENT to one particular public computer at a public library. People who enter into the "public spaces" KNOW or should know that we have to be accomodating of one another. This OCD lady is treating it like a private space-- as if she has some PERSONAL RIGHT to sit at the same computer just because she's been coming there for a while now. (honestly, i've been coming here much longer. I remember when she arrived. There's such a negative vibe emanating from her-- which is another strange thing=- people come "up" here to get away from the angry city vibe. But she brings it with her. If she like the angry city vibe, why come to PV library? There's plenty of city libraries to choose from- that have security guards and lots of rules & limits on computer time etc). That would seem to be more to her liking. But it's as if she LIKES to make an angry statement by coming here. Some damn chip on her shoulder. The second she comes in now-- I LEAVE as quick as possible. It feels like an evil presence. Sad. I used to love coming here.

A very big library ideal for studying or working. They have quiet area that is isolated from all the activities, and also a lot of small and large study rooms if you really need to talk. Their catalog is comprehensive, and recently even started to carry video games - Switch, PS4, Xbox One. The library is right in downtown PV, so there are quite a few food choices if you need. And, of course, such a beautiful and clean library!

Large open library with plenty of study desk the 2nd floor which is a quite zone. Great kids area with a small amphitheater for story times. Private study rooms are available to reserve as well. Well staffed so help isn't ever an issue. Parking can be tough sometimes but a new parking lot is being built. Good hours but limited on weekends so double check before you go. For me personally, it's cold. The a/c works.
