I can't imagine a resource someone would need either as an educator, job seeker, business professional, or student that the Library doesn't have. The staff is generally very friendly and helpful, it's a big facility, and there is plenty of room to find a quiet workspace. The Library is right in the ...

The children's area is great for school age kids, but would be nicer for families if there was a carpeted area with blocks, puzzles and some educational toys for the infants and toddlers for moms with babies to do while the bigger kids scroll through the pages of their favorite book.

As an educator I enjoy bringing my students to the library to check out books. I love giving them the choice of which book to read and I can easily incorporate their choices into my lessons. The benefits of using a library so close to school are wonderful. However, with the exception of the teen ...

Great place to spend some time or take the kids on a rainy day. Very large library. Three floors. And the children's section is separate from the rest of the library.
The staff was very helpful and listened to my son's stories.
Plenty of places to simple crash and dive into a book!

A great Main Library for a great city! There are separate spaces for children and teens, a makerspace with tons of cool gadgets, knowledgeable and friendly librarians, and tons of interesting, fun programs. Parking is easy in the attached garage.

The facility is clean, the staff is friendly and helpful and the Stray Dog Cafe is perfectly placed. I am able to let my toddler play in the children's section then grab a coffee in the cafe and a snack for my kid. They also have a state of the art Makers Space with a laser engraver, 3d printer, sew...
