Very disappointed in the service I received this time around.
This used to be my local library when I lived in Scottsdale for over 2 years. I loved coming here because they had a book sale the size of a NYC apartment filled with paperbacks, hardcovers, and even magazines. I hoped to stock up on some books for an upcoming vacation and dragged my stepdad with me to this library with promises of loads of paperbacks for only 50 cents each. Sadly, when we got there the library was undergoing major construction and the book sale was reduced to the size of a closet. We each only found one book. We were told the other books were probably in a back room somewhere waiting for construction to be over. I was dying for a chance to get into the back room......
I particularly wanted to read a certain James Patterson book right away so I asked the librarian if she had a copy I could borrow (since there wasn't one for sale). She informed me that they had 1 copy of the novel somewhere but wasn't sure where in the library it would be located. ????? This left me ????
So I went off in search of the novel myself amongst the shelves and located all the newer Patterson books including the one that came directly after the one I wanted to read. but the one i wanted was just nowhere to be found.
This trip = fail.
i just didn't have the heart to give it only 1 star because I remain convinced that once construction is done, the library will return to the great library I remembered.
