Got kicked out for eating a sandwich. There is literally no signs saying I can't eat. How do the librarians eat? Do they work 8 hour shifts for no lunch? She said the signs were behind the books on the shelf....LOL what are they doing there? Not to mention the 8 signs they have of warning/banning porn when using their computers. Apparently that is more of a problem than someone minding his own business eating a Beacon Bagel. They kick out the guy eating but not the guy shouting with Medicaid over his cell phone disrupting the people doing their work. Unfortunately I think this might be the only library in town.

For such a smart and artsy town this library really disappointed me. Selection sucks. The atmosphere is depressing. It's just kind uninspired and uninspiring.

They need more computers but I think this library does a great job at providing the kids their own space to go to. Teens probably need the same divided space with teens. Give them privacy and space to be them. This is more about funding though, than the great people that work here. To those that say a library isn't suppose to be loud, you clearly don't understand that a real library lives because it is full of fun and learning. This doesn't mean conventional learning, it means making noise, getting your hands dirty and discovery.
