I Love My Library

This year, we’re spreading the joy and library love. We asked a couple of patrons why they love the library, and how it affected their lives and their community. You can check out their individual reviews below, or our combined interview with all participants.

Want to add your voice to the conversation?
We’d love to hear your thoughts! We have a quick two-minute survey to collect your feedback below.

Hannia
Hannia attended multiple programs at the library – taking home one-of-a-kind memories when she and her children made art during the solar eclipse. And when she’s not at the library, she’s catching up on books delivered directly to her mobile devices with apps like Libby.

Ethan
Ethan had an idea in his head about what the library is and how it functions – a dusty, quiet place solely for books. Little did he know, visiting the library would help improve his career prospects.

Rhonda & Riley
Rhonda has a bundle of creativity in her daughter Riley – and unleashing that joy is easy with the help of the Makerspaces at the Benton and Bryant branches. They are rewriting their own traditions by creating new stories and memories at the library.

Laura
Laura needed guidance and advice in encouraging her young son to read and was able to find it at the Bryant branch. While visiting, she also found there are a lot of valuable resources available for adults, too.
