This is a place where I can focus and concentrate without distraction. That's one big thing I'm looking for in a library. Many times, public libraries can be loud with children's programs, etc. This branch is quiet. I love being able to study and focus when I come here. It is also one of the most aesthetically beautiful libraries in the area.

If you take the information you have into the genealogy center, they will help you get started! The people are knowledgeable and kind! Just let them know what you want and that you don't know what you are doing and they will help get you on the right track!

They should be open 1pm to 7pm on Sundays

Is this library part of a local system requiring a card from that system to use? I'm not a resident yet, but because of the kind of library it is, would like to use the library.
