Give those kids a chance. Wouldn't you rather them be in here than elsewhere causing harm to themselves and others? Most of them come from homes that are broken or with intolerant or overly strict parents. Yes of course responsibility for the situation in which they find themselves ultimately devolves upon themselves, but they're not trash. Shouldn't it be the manifesto of a public library to serve even this element of society: the homeless, the drug-abusing, the mentally unbalanced? As long as they do no ill while they are there. Set aside a place for them to rest; yes, to sleep. Don't search them out by their age, their body ornamentation, their backpacks. They're like abandoned dogs. You have to keep giving them love. It may not take, but it will make you feel better. And surely you don't want to deny them, indefinitely, one of the only places they can feel safe. Who knows, one of them might pick up a book.

I hate to write a bad review about a library, but I just want to be honest. I have spent countless hours studying in libraries, so I think I have a good idea of what should be expected. First, this library is quite small, therefore there are limited places to study. Second, if you need peace and quiet, this library is not the place to go. There seems to be very little to possibly no acoustics at all in this library. Sound travels through the halls like an echo in a cave. To make matters worse, I really do not believe that anyone enforces sound control. What happened to libraries being quiet places to read and study? Almost every time I am at this library I have to either move to another available desk or just leave because someone is being too loud and disruptive. I have even noticed that some of the faculty do not seem to even try to be quiet when shelving books or talking with visitors. It's extremely frustrating! The study rooms are great because they block out most of the noise, but we are only allowed to reserve one two-hour session per day, and believe me, they monitor the time. Third, I hate to sound discriminatory, but there are always "shady" people there. I'm not just talking bout the homeless people who seem to frequent this library, I'm talking about those weirdos who walk by your table and take inventory of all of your belongings. Or like the weirdo that decided to sit down next to me the other day, even though he saw that I was extremely focused on my work, and proceeded to discuss his recent visit to the strip club. It almost seemed like he made it a point to project his voice for whatever reason. I know other people and probably the staff could hear him, yet nothing was done about it. Fourth, the hours are not very convenient. They close at 5 pm Friday, Saturday and Sunday. They also open at 10 am every day except for Sunday, when they open at 1 pm. The last thing I would like to say is that some staff members seem to be friendlier and more helpful than others. I do have to admit that one staff member, a younger gentlemen, was quite condescending and rude to to me. I hope they have the chance to improve this library. Libraries should be quiet places of sanctuary for those seeking knowledge and quietude.

No computers to lookup if books are in-stock or not! I understand they are doing a remodel but they should still place temporary lookup computers in place to serve patrons.

The people at this library are very rude and racist. Watch this comment because it will be edited out google doesn't respect peoples rights iv noticed and thats a pity because everything is done on google nowadays, i spent the whole of yesterday trying to reset the password of one of my accounts. Erin the front desk representative was saying to somebody that "we will send you to prison and every night you will be raped" imagine in a government building, I was affected because I thought she might be talking to me. The security guard was saying we will send you back to the reservation. I dont bother confronting people nowadays because i guess this kind of talk is the norm here Denver and these kinds of people are protected. Lots of nice friendly people in Denver but some people are just plain nasty.
