4 stars, amazing library but exclusive teen section with books not available anywhere else... Also me and my Gf where kicked out by the librarian with NO ONES ELSE in the section... and 15 minutes till closing lol. Also amazing twist... no one entered when we left either🤣

I found one staff member to be unprofessional, discourtesy, and petty. They locked their restrooms in advance of closing. Upon asking them to please use the restroom prior to a long return drive home, one at the front desk refused. Other staff seemed surprised by the sharpness of her tone and refusal. The time of request was 5:48 pm. The library closes at 6 pm. I will not return to this library or bring my grandchildren here. It doesn’t take much to be kind.

This library, though small, has so much to offer the community. The staff here is respectful, helpful, and involved. There are special projects and story time every week for anyone to attend. There's ample parking that's easy to access. A wonderful outside play structure for the little ones to play on and get there energy out before coming in and reading or playing. The children's section is filled with all manner of fun and educational books and toys. There's a little computer lab available for public use, as well as free wifi. Perfect place to take your children and not have it cost an arm and a leg.

Great "new" local branch. Everything is clean and well appointed. The on sight adult collection is not huge (Kids is great) but you can request books be transferred from the other locations so it's got a bigger availability than expected (and can return books from other branches there too).

Community events and a cute play structure rounds out a great local library!

I love this place. The library staff is so lovely! Not to mention the resources this place has for kids. They have a playground and classroom where people can teach children. The last time I was at this library, a man taught them how to play chess. Also, I really enjoy that they have a designated area for the teens. (The only downside is that the manga is in there, and I'm not a teen, so I always feel uncomfortable going in when there are teens.)

Now, there's only one con, and that's the parking. However, it's ignorant to complain about it because everyone who works there or goes there knows that it's awful. It's the designers' fault for making parking what it is. However, if they changed the design to add more parking, their best bet would have been to get rid of the playground. This would be unfair to the kids.

What a gorgeous library! Lots of patrons were there as well. It was enjoyable to see people reading newspapers and magazines. As well as studying and enjoying a good book. The chairs were comfortable with some reading lamps too. There are also good amount of all gender single restrooms that were so clean and well stocked. Free charging station for your phone as well as outlets throughout. The parking lot does get full quickly! Two EV charging parking spots in front of the library.

Such a clean and welcoming space! Lots of different little rooms and nooks to sit and read or work on a computer, and the library staff are super helpful

Im beginning to hate this library. Just left about 10 minutes ago. I felt judged and made to feel stupid.

I came to print some papers out 21 pages to be exact. Which i know you can only print out 30 pages for free. Well one of the librarians decided to keep looking at me as i was printing and then decided to walk over to me proceeded to say you know its only 30 pages.

I know that!!! This is getting really annoying. I hate being a Mexican mom constantly being watched by white ladies. I am sorry if 21 pages was too much for you to have to complain to me saying only 30.
