I brought my kids to the library for the first time and it was absolutely lovely. My kids were a little too energized to participate in the reading activities they provided but it seemed super fun! They have a cute little outdoor area. Made me think of my own childhood. Every library is such a magical place and I’m glad I got around to finally going!

I actually LOVE this library.... HOWEVER, every single time I've come here every person here is SO loud. I thought a library had to be quite for people that are studying or trying to read. I got so desperate that I had to purchase headphones off of Amazon to help with this issue. It helps a little, but not much.

Also, there is always a girl in the back of the library that talks SO insanely loud. She's a property manager working FROM the library. She's here every single day, all day. She takes phone calls ALL the time and for some reason she is SO INSANELY loud when she talks on the phone. You can hear here clear as day from the front of the library.

No one regulates people talking loud here. It's so annoying! And the other annoying thing is teenagers come in after school and play videos on their phone with no headphones on. It's so incredibly loud here. Even more so in the summer when kids are out of school.

I moved here from Virginia Beach, VA and ALL the librarys in Virginia are SOOOO quite. They even have small private rooms you can check out if you need to study or take a phone call.

It's such a shame, because this library is so nice and large.

I'm currently taking online marketing courses and I come here trying to get peace and quite to study... but it's NEVER quite, even with my headphones on :'-( !!!!!!

Please, please, please help with the above issue, Benton. I BEG of you!!!!!!!!!

I love this library but they need to be more considerate of others and not post online their open and be closed. I understand it's the holidays and they want to be closed for it to be with their families. They need to update their online not just hang a closed sign on the door saying they are closed so others don't make a waste trip to them. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year but do better next time. Start taking care of your online to. They are not open but close right now until Tuesday. They didn't take care of the online.

My experience here is always wonderful. This library is just amazing, and I will explain why. First, the staff here is so helpful and respectful, you won't hear a single complaint from the staff. Next, the books here are great. They have a wide variety of books to choose from and there are monitors here and there to help if you can't find a book. They also have fantastic programs, and most of them don't even need registration! They are very important to this community and they have a variety of programs for any age, from 4 years old to a adult. this library is absolutely the best library I have gone to. You can rent books, games, pots and pans, halloween costumes, and tax forms. Amazing.

This is one of my favorite libraries. They have an excellent selection of books, movies, and even video games for my Nintendo switch.
