Amazing

I'd go with two person tables. The 4 person ones are typically used by one person. No one will sit with strangers as it is too awkward.

I love this library. The only problem for the family based library is that they ignore the rights of older adults to have a quiet environment to work in. Babies are allowed to scream for hours. Childern are allowed to be loud, noisy, and disruptive. Staff is unresponsive to these problems. Their response to these issues is, "This is a family library", as if older adults are not part of this concept or family. Great library if you can put up with all the noise. Do not however let your cell phone ring or speak on your cell phone cause you may interrupt or annoy the babies screaming or the noisy children playing.

This is my favorite library! I took my son here when he was tiny and now we go there to look for books together!

Ample spots for reading and studying. Friendly staff. Great resources.

Betty Abbey

Great library. I would have given it 5 stars if they could come up with a sound proof area for kids. If you are the type who needs silence to study you probably have to come with noise cancelling ear plugs or find a different library. I love kids, but I surely need silence to study and unfortunately the kids can get very very loud. I literally had to stop studying to write this review because a kid was screaming and could not be controlled by the parent/guardian. I understand kids cannot always be controlled but if the library could come up with a way to cater for both kids and people who need silence to study, that would be awesome!.

We love this library. It has a fun and interactive kids area, including a somewhat closed off toddler area with lots of toys. I loved their sing a long sessions with babies. They have activities and events all yr round. There is a homework center for kids too, and business resources for adults. There are also study rooms for reservation. There are paper resources with book recommendations. I love that all the libraries are connected so you can request books from all over Columbus. There is also a large digital library to read books from. Simply wonderful. I only wish they opened earlier than 1 on Sundays.

It has almost every book you could want and if they don't have a book, most likely one of the other library's has I and it will be sent to you with in a week or so at least.

Emma Hohman

It is a really good helping you out where you need to go to places to place.

Eric Burlison

Great library! The kids area is well organized, and has a lot of activities too. The open floor concept makes it easy to find the materials you are looking for.

Madi Thibaut

Wish they implied a no phone, hushed talking policy ore. People talk loudly on the phone and have their ringers up and teens are super loud. Staff is friendly though and it is a wonderful place. It's just I use the library for a quiet space to work and it can be difficult to rely on here to be that.

Sahuj Mehta

amazing！

James Green

It is a very nice library and has good collections and resources. I am here writing my dissertation in a need for a quiet spot. However, it is not quiet. The children singing in the meeting room doesn't bother me, but patrons coming in, talking in very loud voices to their friends who are working, parents talking to their kids like it is a mall and other stuff makes it just OK. I wish people would know that you are supposed to be quiet in the library, and wish the staff would be better at enforcing it!

It's staff is friendly. Many options and opportunities to watch new movies through the use of its partnering library branches.

Nicole Slaw

This library is wonderful! No card is needed to access the Internet there. There are a wide veriety of media there to be checked out. The staff is extremely helpful and kind. There are many areas to quietly study and the library has many events going on. The bathrooms are clean and it's a busy library with many patrons. The decor leaves nothing to be desired as it's a beautiful building and the decorations make the experience better. I really love this library and intend to visit it while in the area. Highly recommended!

HongJoong Kim

You can see a placard that says 5 star library. If you have kids, you can understand. This place is amazing and the staff are nice. They provide diverse, good programs.

Whats Up Doc

Great place to lose your reality. Theu ha e a very Large selection of books and media, almost too large. Very helpful staff that are knowledgeable on many subject and authors. A little noisy at times from all the people bustling around asking questions. They are very organized and things are very easy to locate. The have comfortable seating to read a book or nicely arranged work areas for students or business personnel. The air conditioning works well, so o ahot summer day, it's a great place to relax pit for the heat. Transversely it's a wonderfully cozy and warm place to be in the winter. They have special guests and reading times for those wanting that, as well. Would have been a 5* if they could reduce the noise a little. But overall a great place to go that is only limited by your imagination.

Maggie Summers

Always friendly and helpful staff. Nice interior and decent layout. Never a problem if they don't have books- I just have them shipped there and then I pick them up. Its really nice they have the after hours pick up too if you need something and they are closed.
