Best library ever. I love how the children's area is upstairs so they don't have to be as quiet.

There are lots of books. Also, the programs and the summer reading club are great.

Not very happy with the staff today. I needed to print out my document for my final exam. I asked the lady for help since I had 10 mins before closing and I just arrived from East Troy. The lady, Kathryn, wasnt very helpful. It took more time with her helping them me to figure out where the printing machine was. I opened the document and printed my document. I left the computer on and told her I will be back since i have to walk out the library to make change from what she told me. I was told the dispenser doesnt take $20 bill. I had to walk all the way out of the library to find out the dispenser doesnt take anything larger than $5. I asked the lady up front for change and she was able to help. I went back to the dispenser to print to find out my document was never in the queue. I wasnt able to log back in. Kathryn was not helpful. I told her several times I needed to print it in color. She was very hesitant, not knowledgeable and was not able to handle my request. I was really upset. I finally had a lady who was able to let me print. Once again Kathryn was there to "help". I asked how much i owe for printing and she couldn't use the basic calculator on the computer to let me know I owe $3.15. I was told several times "this as an exception. They normally don do this and that I need to be out by 9pm". I really dont need 4 people to tell me something that 1 person can do. It wasnt my fault that kathyrn couldnt help not and wasnt knowledgeable to help. To put a flash drive and press the print button doesn't require much. This is why I dont like this library. If it wasnt for the fact i really needed these pages I would have went to a closer one near by the next morning. I honestly felt really unwelcome and these people were rude. Sorry if I was a burden but last time I check if the library doesnt have funding it does close. Maybe realizing that patrons keep this library running.

Great library in the City of Waukesha. It wins awards and you can see why. A very dedicated staff makes sure the place has everything! The children's area is fantastic. Check out the activities as there is something for all sizes of kids. We've seen some great stuff at the library.
