Great selection of novels across all age demographics as well as a couple of languages including Japanese animanga. Outside is kind of misleading since it actually looks pretty spacious inside compared to how small it looks outside well done interior design crew! The token poll at the front was pretty fun too! Surprised that they even loan out things like rice cookers and other things you would normally expect 😯. My only gripe/complaint is that it was super cold in there, I don't know if we can ask the front desk anything about that? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Very nice library. They offer seeds for those who love gardening it's called the seed library. You can donate your books at their book store! They also offer backpacks which you can check out like a book where they have different activities like gameboards. Overall a nice place.

Very nice library. Open feel with lots of light, plenty of seating and friendly staff. The seating areas include a long row of desks for working at individually and also benches and tables in more communal layouts. There were also public computers available for use.

While I was visiting the cover broke off of the book I had brought in and the library staff was kind enough to help me repair it. During my visit I also saw staff helping many of the visitors with questions and with the computers which I thought was great.

Will be returning!
