Great selection of children's books and activities!!
It was our first visit to the library for me and my son. We had come to a reading by a children's book author. Unfortunately, we arrived right at the end of the hour, and the author had to leave early, so we missed the reading and the signing of his book. The staff was as disappointed as we were, and kind, and full of solutions. The next day, at their suggestion, I was able to secure a signed copy through the local Barnes and Noble (another exceptional bunch of folks). The staff was also knowledgeable, selecting "humor" books for my boy (his favorite). By the end of our visit I walked away with an armful of books. Bedtime was filled with laughter, and we look forward to many more visits. Thank you for the experience.
The only beef I have is one I addressed with them that went unanswered which is not acceptable as is the fact that the weekly newsletter emails contain information on special events for that CURRENT week, some of which happen to be on the same day as or the very day after I GET said email. This too is unacceptable as it is too short of notice for most people who might want to attend these events and would like between a week and a month ideally to plan. However, the collection is so diverse and so impressive, it's within walking distance of my house and I have enjoyed their Valentine blind date with a book read-a-thon very much the past couple of seasons. Pleased to have been chosen to win a hand knit scarf last winter after it drew to a close!
Staff is amazing, they have multiple activities, nice building, etc. The list of good things is endless.
They have great programs for children all summer long, from murder mysteries to cooking classes to reading reward systems.
