| - I don't know if they built this building to be a library, but it feels like it used to be a small bank branch. Perched in the corner of a shopping center right on south and scaleybark, I didn't really know what to expect, but it's now the closest library to my house so I went for it.
The inside is somewhat circular with the circumference lined with shelves of books. The middle is all computers and tables, the desktop computers were full (they offer a reservation system online) and now also offer smaller laptops to use. I don't know the details, I just know they're available (signage and someone checked one out while I was there).
The selection is, well, slim. The fact that one of the books I was looking for was placed (accurately, when organized by call numbers) between two completely different topics told me enough. Though I'm sure you could find a few gems while browsing, I'd definitely check online to see if this branch carries what you're looking for before you head there. They do have an eclectic selection of dvds and cds, so if you're waiting for a computer there are a few ways to kill some time, but not many.
Really nice staff, and love the self checkout. Just wish they had more of a selection.
