Anthony Breckenridge

When is the new library going to be open, I'm asking cause I didn't have it written down on càlendar.

Daniel Roach

The staff is helpful, and people are usually not too loud. They have a small selection books and if I'm looking for a specific one I usually have to get it from another library.

The people here are great, but the building needs to be updated. Just from going to some other libraries here in the city as well as some out of state, this is the smallest and least up to date library I've been to. That being said I have hear whispers that there may be a new building in the works here in Bethany! That is just what is needed here. I hope it's not just talk.

Temporary location until the new library is built. August 2017 construction began.

Aaron Snow

Friendly and very helpful staff.

Great library, not real big but offers a lot. Bring duck food for all of the ducks outside.

Kimberly McLemore

Sad what a small strip mall it has been relegated to.

I want to stress this review is for the computers only! The library is great. My kids check out a ton of books every week. But the computer situation is a nightmare. I walked in on a Sunday afternoon to print ONE sheet. One. That's it. Literally would've taken me less than a minute to accomplish. I reserved a computer and it said I had a 55 minute wait. I sat in a chair for the wait and about 20 minutes later, a gentleman began logging off and told me I could get on his. So I stood up and we waited for the computer to log him off. As we waited, a girl walked in and went to the reservation system. She entered her information and the system assigned her to that computer. So, I had been waiting for 20 min, but since the computer that the system reserved for me wasn't the one he logged off from, the system assigned the computer to her. The library assistant said that the software doesn't re-assign reservations as computers come available. So, if that's the case and there truly aren't options for the person that set the computers up for this to occur, this is the worst software I have ever encountered, and that's saying something as I'm a software engineer. This needs to be fixed or there is going to be an 'incident' in the future because of it. I'm a sane guy that understands consequences, so I simply walked out. But there's some mentally ill people out there that would've lost it over the situation.
