Selection is somewhat limited, but l can always find something to read. Everyone is very nice, and I'm happy we have a nice library with digital resources.

For a small library, it has a nice selection of books and DVD's that is regularly updated with new materials. There are a variety of children's programs and a couple of classes for seniors, but nothing offered for teens or adults. Both the interior and exterior are well maintained and kept clean. Most of the staff are helpful and knowledgeable. Computers and printers are available for member usage. The children's area includes appropriate materials, low seating for little legs, and what appears to be tablets mounted to the table.
Applying for a card may be difficult for some new patrons since you must list established Cooke County residents as references.

Enjoyed the time spent in this library. Patrons can choose to enter from several routes. Interior was almost too cozy close. But it there was always enough room to maneuver. Some original sketches historical to Gainesville displayed. Appreciate the service.
