Yeah, it's true that this branch is tiny and smells old. But it's a public library in the middle of the city- it would be disappointing if it didn't smell like funk or have weirdo's hanging out. I always order my books and movies on the library website and they send me an e-mail when they are ready for pick up. It's a great system and even better because you don't have to pay for the books. Usually when I buy a book I'm such a cheapskate that I will force myself to read the entire book even if I hate it. They have a pretty big selection of classic and current DVD's. I do wish the library had longer business hours. Right now it's closed on Sundays and closes early on Tues and Thursdays. Everyone should support the library, that way it can be open longer and continue to have a good selection of books and DVD's.
