I've used the Latter Library since my college days. Recently I had the amazing experience of participating in the marathon reading of John Milton's Paradise Lost, under the direction of librarian and poet Jacob Reisman. For many years I have attended the Poetry Buffet there as well, under the direction of poet Gina Ferrara.

This branch just opened after a remodel all summer (to my knowledge). The grounds and outside look fantastic. I was never inside prior to the remodel, so I'm just commenting how it looks now. The front has a bike rack, and there is a big porch, but I didn't see any benches or chairs. When you walk in there are 2 sitting rooms to read in, and some newspapers also. They have ceiling paintings with beautiful chandeliers, and couch and chairs. Old fashioned parlor feel. Love that. There is a front desk where I got my Orleans Parish library card from Michael, a very friendly and helpful guy who told me some stuff about the library system. There is a side room also for reading, using a laptop, writing, whatever...a few long tables and comfortable chairs. Went up to 2nd floor via an old wood staircase that just impressed me. The staircase, not the 2nd floor. Upstairs has some book cases, and DVD and CD'S and books. Not really alot here, but it's a small branch. Computer room, some more chairs. Overall, it's a cool place to read. You can get things here, but not a huge selection. They DO take book donations, and sell books, so there's that. But, it IS a beautiful property.
