They have a wonderful kids section! Love bringing my toddler here for her to pick out some books. Recently we checked out the romp and rhyme and unfortunately was very disappointed there needs to be an online registration to limit the amount of children that can come there were over 25+ kids with caregivers and that included a dayhome bringing 8+ kids and one adult so as you can imagine it was pure chaos and most of the toddler looked overstimulated the program teacher and love for books is amazing but it was to overcrowded for any of the kids to enjoy especially with the dayhome!

A beautiful library with the most helpful staff. I came in to reactivate my library card to access LinkedIn Learning for some upskilling I was looking to do. A member of the staff (I believe her name was Kaitlyn) helped me renew my card, explain the benefits and ensured I was able to log in to the LinkedIn Learning platform.

Quick, easy and took substantially less time to sort out than expected. Thank you!

Beautiful library but they allow the kids to run wild and use anything but an appropriate inside voice. Avoid if your looking for a quiet place to work.

We started going to the free drop in programs for toddlers and I worried I would struggle bringing my 6 month old along with my toddler but I felt so welcomed. We’ve been going weekly now and I feel so welcomed and comfortable each time. It’s a great way to get young kids socializing without any pressure. I really started seeing my daughter opening up today as she played with other kids. They have a fun play area for toddlers with a good amount of seating where parents can relax. The librarian Erna is fantastic. She always has a friendly hello as we come in and is so helpful, patient and kind every time I have a question. The library is so lucky to have her. If the library doesn’t have a book you want they will order it in for you. They have the coolest book return conveyor belt that my toddler loves and easy self serve check out stations but they are more than happy to help you at the desk if you want. I can’t say enough good things about the staff and the atmosphere here.

This is by far one of the BEST libraries I have been too in recent years. Love the open feeling, the lighting from so many windows is beautiful!
I was floored at all the services it offers and all thr other libraries its connected too. The selection from books to DVDs to e-books and all the e-services they have is amazing!!
The staff was wonderful and so many to help you find what your looking for!! Older libraries take note and renovate! The library for me as a child was a wonderous place of adventure because of all the books I read. Now with all the other services its a true gem for our future generations!!!

small library with lots of staff
They did a great job dealing with some rambunctious teens. I will definitely be visiting more often!

The staff are very kind and outgoing, but there is no control over the noise at all. I understand it's a small library and kids want to have fun, but I think there should be more enforced quiet spaces. I come to the library to read and study, attempting to get some peace of mind, and the environment is extremely distracting.
