Beautiful, spacious building with lots of meeting rooms and resources. The staff is helpful, friendly, and knowledgable. A real gem on the downtown square. The staff have all been doing a phenomenal job of keeping the library open to patrons in the safest possible way during this pandemic. They also showcase artwork in their second floor gallery, changing it frequently and highlighting local artists. The genealogy department is an invaluable resource that attracts people from far and wide who then contribute to the community's economy. They offer many activities for people of all ages, from live music concerts over the lunch hour to entertainment for teens and story-time for kids. Arts & crafts also abound at the library, including the tight "knit" Sticks & Strings group that meets on a regular basis. As a Washingtonian I am so proud to call this my local library.

I am new to town and went in to use wifi for an online class. I then printed something following the online steps which was extremely easy. Lastly they assisted me to get my library card then I checked out a book. Lovely people working their too; so friendly. I'll be back very soon.

This is a very nice community library. It is clean, has a nice layout, and the staff are very kind. It is small, but they do make the most out of the space they have. Overall, it was very nice to visit.
