My new favorite place to find tranquility in reading! Very friendly, helpful and professional staff to guide me in the direction of any book I'm interested in! Strongly recommend this library!
Attended baby story time and spent time in the library, it's really nice and the storytime was so much fun! Afterwards we were able to stay and play with toys the library provided or hang out and read books.
I am truly blown away by how amazing this library is. From the moment you walk through the doors, you can feel the warmth, organization, and passion for learning. The staff is incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always willing to help—whether it’s finding the right book, recommending resources, or guiding you through their technology and programs. 5/5 ⭐️’s! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
K to 2 adventures is alot of fun, mrs Julie is amazing and this location has a great kids book selection
It met my needs. It was within close proximity. There was an acceptable quietness overall. I desired a private study room however this location didn't offer one. I enjoyed my table near the window for studying though. I would definitely come again.
We enjoy this library and the story time in the mornings, especially the bubbles at the end. The librarians do an amazing job keeping the children’s section decorated for the season and scavenger hunts. It’s a beautiful, clean library.
Northeast Regional was clean and quite, but the political bias of the staff creates a library you can't leave your children to explore by themselves. If you or your family want gay YA literature, or biographies on Nancy Pelosi and AOC written for kids, or an extremely well-stocked romantasy section, then this library is for you.
For years, we would come here for weekly story time, fun events and grab books. We loved the familiar and friendly faces of the staff, too. But so much has changed in the last few years- not sure if its Sally's management or higher ups. But its decorated with pride flags, I get "staff picks LGBTQIA" suggestions, and there are a lot of inappropriate books throughout. We dont come inside anymore. I reserve books online and come pick up. Staff isnt friendly, and often don't look approachable, if I'm being honest. Its not what I would expect or hope for from my tax dollars. Libraries should be a welcoming place for everyone, not catered to the 1%.
Why it matters
Go with a question.
Places like this are more than coordinates. They are where ideas become decisions, where communities keep memory, and where the words in a textbook become a room you can stand inside.
