Internet + tables. Needs more tables.

A really nice library. The entire ground floor is dedicated to children's books. There's also a magazine and newspaper room, quiet reading rooms, and a program room. The little park area outside has a structure and swings for kids to play, a bike rack, and a grassy area for dogs or picnics. Speaking of picnics, the 9th avenue side has a grassy hilly area and nearby trash cans. There are also plenty of benches to sit outside and ample seating inside for reading. Another great thing are the electrical outlets embedded in the tables, perfect for charging a phone or laptop. Also, there's a teen room with a good selection of young adult reading materials and computers. It's also wheelchair accessible. I could go on and on about this library but you get the point. It's a wonderful library. I'm lucky to have such a great library so close to where I live.

I will never be going back there. I was asked to leave the room where the YA books are on the account that I was over 18. I like to work on my laptop at the tables in the YA room because the YA room is a much smaller room. I like that the room is small. I thought the Public library is a public space, why should I have to move just because of my age? Look! Fine! Whatever! I am going to return all the YA books I borrowed, and never go back there. So we're "good". I was asked by a librarian to move, but not before she asked if I was over 18 because "they couldn't tell" *chuckle* *chuckle* You pretty much just kicked me out of a room for using the tables, we're not going to become friend and laugh about that one time when you kicked me out.

Nice library with extensive videos that are surprisingly current. Usually very busy and WIFI suffers because of this but good selection of publications in one room where one can read the current newspapers and magazines updated daily. Nice children's section on the lower level and a program room where I took free classes on art, crafts, and other topics of interest over the years. Always an interesting class to improve your mind and enrich your experiences.
