They have an amazing number of different resources. The public library system in the Birmingham metro area is wonderful and demonstrates what public service could look like if the various municipalities work together. There are a lot of books, DVD's, graphic novels, AND they also have board games. There are several nooks that are good to read or do work in.

I needed a place to study so I figured I goto a library, what a mistake. I couldn't tell if it was a library or a social place.
People are walking around talking on the phone, employee on the phone with foot upon the table, kids talking loudly. Library looked really nice from outside and inside but doesn't have many books. Doesn't seem to know how to prioritize, spending all the money on the building and not on the books.
What a joke, I was very disappointed by the experience.

The best library in Alabama...So much media, even board games! So much to do for the whole family.

I have since moved from Hoover, over more than a year ago. This library is what I miss most. I still go occasionally, even though I live a bit farther away. Nothing compares to this library. The employees are wonderful. They are helpful. They are never rude to children. They are well educated and a lot of them are artists or performers, who help design whimsical displays around the library or put on shows for the kids.

 This library is a living library. It is vibrant and joyous with learning. There are quiet locations to study in the back, but towards the front, it is an interactive learning area for children, teens and adults. They have free programs for kids constantly. Every book I have ever asked for has been there. Apart from normal books, they have manga, comics, board games, and a pretty awesome sci fi/fantasy section by itself.

 This library is the greatest resource that the city of Hoover has to offer.

 I love all the people there. I feel good and at home at the Hoover Public Library. I want to say thank you to all the people who work so hard to make this library extraordinary.

With that, I conclude my love letter to HPL.
