This Library located in the old section of Baytown still tries to be relevant in modern times there are several computer desks. They have a lot of after-school programs for young children, adolescents, teenagers and college students. Things like book club project orientated groups it talked about things like anime participate in 3D printing and other computer and technological related subjects and yes they have a lot of books movies music and other forms of media.

We love this library. We prefer to drive from North Shore to visit this library than our own. They always have something for the kids to do. Nice big selection of books. Staff are very friendly and helpful.
