Half Hollow Hills Community Library

The renovation is fantastic! Great place to spend time with your family or by yourself with a good book.

Quiet please… there isn’t one spot for anyone who wants to focus and study. almost every coffee place is significantly quieter, and now I need to find a different library.

Beautiful library with friendly librarians and clerks. Many programs such exercise classes, food classes, reading groups. Many resources to use such as Ancestry, job searching and homework help. Museum passes for purchase or free downloads. Rooms to reserve for various programs one may need a room for.

This new library building is an absolute dud all around. Ordered a previous best seller book for a pick up that the library site said they have on hand and went there the next day to pick it up, and they said it was being transferred in from another library. Upon further questioning they said they could not find it so they ordered it from another library but failed to tell me that. Useless as I was going away the following day and wasted a trip there. I told them to cancel the transfer, yet while I was away I got an email saying my book arrived! And on my last visit on a rainy day, the closest spots were electric car charging only--Of course I only saw that after I initially pulled in, and after parking farther away I watched other cars do the exact same thing! If it is not being used, why not let anyone park there, especially on a rainy day? When I went inside to read 2 recent newspapers, they only had 1. I asked why and they said that Melville is where you should go for newspapers and magazines as that is not this branch's focus. I guess books and newspapers are not what this library focuses on....
