I love the library. From my days of being an awkward bookworm with braces, to my days now of being a slightly less awkward bookworm with a permanent retainer, the library has always been a dear friend of mine. Now onto specifics, this library is tucked away off Greek Oaks, near the dog park and animal center, and has plenty of parking, though on a busy day you might find yourself parked off onto the side. I signed up for a card here, and found the process painless thanks to the friendliness of the staff here. I’ve also had trouble locating books and again immediately received assistance from the awesome staff. Computers/work stations/tables can get crowded, so if you’re here to study, you might need to take the walk around a few times to get your ideal spot, and while doing so perhaps pick up a presidential auto-biography…wait, that was me… maybe I also picked up a YA novel. They offer a self checkout, which is quick and easy. and also they have a small coffee machine, it costs a dollar, but hey, perfect study fuel. Computers also offered, and also a children’s section of the library. Friendly staff and books/media galore? Yes please! Great place.

It’s a library, so full disclosure, I’m automatically rating it at a five. As far as libraries go, it’s on the smaller side, and when I went, I had a hard time finding a spot to stop and read. But, anytime so many people are hanging out at a public library is a win in my book. The book selection isn’t extensive, but you can check the catalog online. Great selection of DVDs, and they even have some Blu-Rays. They have computer stations available. You sign up with your account info. They also have a nice selection of children’s books and separate computer stations available for kids. When I asked a silly question at circulation, I was treated with courtesy and warmth. They have posts on the cork boards in the entryway about groups/story-times. Most are for kids, but I have a feeling I’ll be checking out one of the adult groups. Now to go back and see the meeting times again! :)

Really love this location. Started taking my son to story time here. They library staff is awesome! And the children’s area is clean, well-kept and beautiful. Also has a decent science fiction section, which is my favorite.
