Great library that is kept clean and orderly. A great selection of books and DVDs, as well as other resources available. They also have a nice computer area. Staff are friendly.

I go almost every weekend. The staff are friendly and helpful. It's quiet, well run with a great selection of books, plenty of computers to use and a good children's/young adult area. Their online book & magazine offerings are good as well. There is also an area to have a snack & a drink. I really appreciate the library offerings & people.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.
