The main branch is a beautiful library. The views from the outside or inside were incredible. They offer a variety of programs for everyone. The third floor was great for the kids.

This is an excellent public library with beautiful architecture and a vast selection of books, movies, graphic novels, etc. The space also has numerous work areas with desktops and chargers for public use. The wifi is pretty good and I often see people working remotely. The libraries above ground floors are flooded with natural light which is great for reading and doing work. There is also an outdoor seating area which is great in the summer months. The building is incredibly cool and is easily one of the nicest libraries I've ever been to. The staff are also super helpful and provide great recommendations.

*Edit Coming here for three weeks and no problems with me having a backpack and messenger bag for my laptop. Now all of a sudden one particular employee decides to pick on me because I apparently look "homeless". Really? What is this world coming to? I spend maybe 2 hrs a day there to charge my devices and use the Wi-Fi to look for work. Kept to myself, never bothered anyone, but apparently I look like a bum dyke and that is against the rules. Have video of the old prick, smug as can be telling me he is the only manager on duty after asking to talk to a superior and if I did not leave he was going to waste the police time by having them come and escort me out. Since this place is going to discriminate, I can no longer recommend. Shame. Up until this incident my experience here was swell. But long behold there is always that one bad apple. One star. Original review👇 Can't think of anything to fault this place on. One of the best libraries I have ever been to. Amazing selection of books and movies. Lots of quite areas to study or just relax and enjoy the free WiFi. Bathrooms are clean and staff are very polite.

Very nice location. Spent time in their function space which was very comfortable and worked well for the speaking event. The parking situation was a little confusing.

Great place to take young children who have their own floor, Curious George Reading Room, and learning events while their parents roam the stacks!
