We absolutely this library....thank you for having such a great selection of books, audio, DVDs, preloaded children's learning tablets and they even have different size and designs of cake pans you could borrow..... plus odd and end different items for home improvement such as drills etc when available (most available at the rocky bluff library location), you might have to get on a waiting list, but it's a good alternative if you don't want to buy one because you just need to use it for one project

A bunch of grumpy miserable gringos as librarians. I took my 10 month old to explore the children's section where we were stared at with grumpy faces. Not one librarian smiled at my family or offered us help. The ONLY HAPPY employee in there was the Hispanic Bradenton deputy. Thank you sir atleast someone smiled at us.
