This library is a paradise. It's not only the events or workshops they host. Or the summer game. Or the kid's section. Or the space you can rent for your meetings. Or the people that works there. Or the fact that you can simply go for a coffee and a magazine during cold days... You can check out electric guitars, led lights for your party, a sewing machine, seeds for your garden, a board game, a puzzle, music CDs, blue ray movies, ebooks and they also have regular books! Go figure.

Parking is terrible, once in the store "social distancing" is a joke and people without masks. I am also surprised by some of the prices, not an antique store but some items are priced like it.

This is one amazing library. They have everything! Besides library books, you can check out artwork for your home or electronics you might need or even books for a book club! This is a large four-story building with lots of places to rest, read, work or play. The book store is top-notch with most items $2 or less. There are even games and puzzles available for purchase.

Big and spacious with multiple floors of books and tools (instruments, electronic equipment, board games, and more) for food to check out for free. I cannot emphasize enough that patronizing your local library saves so much money.Thanks for the amazing review and we're so happy you love using your Library!

On library lane there is a parking structure (right next to the library). It has an elevator.

Where is the closest free parking to the library?

If you just need to run in and run out, there are several spots right in front of the Library on Fifth Avenue. Otherwise, there are plenty of free parking spots on neighborhood streets to the west of the Library, but they're several blocks away.

Does the Library accept donations of fly fishing books, art books and photography books?

The friends of the library do. Take them to the loading dock in the staff parking lot off William Street.

Hi there, you can still use your previous years' points on classic shop items! More classic shop items drop every Friday during Summer Game. These changes make the game much more fair for more types of players. We're sorry you feel it's a waste of time, but we thank you for playing the Summer Game!

do you take video tapes of movies to sell at your sales?
