Unlike Seattle, where you can't find good DVDs or videos actually sitting on a shelf, in Cleveland there are not only myriads of shelving devoted to DVDS, but, more importantly, they are all full of DVDs!
Although many exasperated Clevelanders can easily find plenty of topics to complain about, there is little to complain about regarding their public library system. Vis-a-vis other parts of the country I have visited, Cleveland and Cuyahoga County Libraries have one of the best libraries in the whole country--only the Columbus Metropolitan Library can claim to have a system on an equal footing. (Plus, the county and city library share their resources with their respective residents, which makes everyone involved happier).
King County and Seattle need to wake up and smell the coffee. They could create a better experience for everyone if they pooled their resources together. It's a shame that I can't get King county materials near Shoreline shipped to Rainier!
Finally, I love the old classical architecture and the nice outdoor garden. I wish I had spent more time at the downtown branch when I lived there.
