I'm not sure why Google keeps asking me for a review. I don't always review. My guess is because it knows I was recently there looking for a book with my daughter. I was disappointed they had limited copies and I had to buy it. It's a popular book so I'm not sure why they wouldn't have more copies. Other than that, it's an average library....nothing outstanding. I will say that the behavior of the staff lacks professsionalism in their HR/hiring practices (from my personal experience with them several months ago) I hope Google stops asking after this review

Huge library with all sorts of books! I'll be starting work here soon, and I honestly can't wait to be a part of the wonderful staff. :)

My brother (4th grade) and I came here today. He walked past the computers to try and look at some books he saw, and an asian lady staff member screamed at him, screaming that those books were ‘staff only’ and telling him to get out of the library. My brother is special needs and he,(and me included), did not see the staff only sign? It looked like book shelves so we went over to it, because we were in a library? What else do you expect, at least be nice about it! My brother was very upset by this interaction and we left immediately without checking out the books that we had. We will not be returning, this is disgusting.

Why doesn't the Chester County Library System support KANOPY? I think this would be a great asset to the library.

I am a patron, not an employee, but I know that on July 1, 2019, three of the largest public libraries in the United States—the New York Public Library, the Brooklyn Public Library, and the Queens Public Library—discontinued Kanopy, citing unpredictable and unsustainable costs. Since then, Kanopy was acquired by Overdrive which CCLS does provide for ebooks. Perhaps once Overdrive has figured out a business plan for Kanopy it will be a viable and cost-effective way to provide video content to patrons.

Is CCLS accepting book donations?
