Brown Library

I stopped by to read my kindle and decompress for an hour or so after visiting my Dad in assisted living all morning. There was no one. Literally zero people in the library. The only chairs for adults were hard wooden chairs. I saw a loveseat and sat there. It was labeled teen section, but I figured it was a beautiful day and summer festival so the likelihood of a group of teens coming in on a Saturday were pretty low. 5 minutes in the librarian said I had to move. I told her I would move if teens come in. She said the teens wouldn’t come in if I were sitting there. Ridiculous. I left.

Visited here for a short period of time nice library.The librarian at the front desk was very strict with my senior citizen mother who was sitting on the couch area for teens and requested that she move to another area. Granted it was 11:00am on a Tuesday morning and teenagers were still in school. My mother was polite and moved as she requested. She asked where can adults or senior citizens sit. she politely answered in those hard chairs over there. That was a bit harsh in my opinion and there was not even anyone inside the library except myself my daughter,my mom and roughly four other people. But it's still a nice library. Great place to visit as we travel across NC public libraries.

We LOVE our library!! Always receive a warm and inviting welcome from all who work here. It is clean and well organized. They have a really cute children’s section with plenty of events - weekly storytime, community events, free monthly kits, and more. Their online system is a great resource as well. A lot of time and effort must have gone into their system and it shows! We are so thankful to have a library like this in our community!

Brown Library is a rather wonderful little gem. The staff pleasantly greets you upon entering and are always willing to help. They have many books and movies for all ages, and free activities at tables to play with, and computers for those who need. They also have great programs and events throughout the year, and are very community focused.

I visited to work on an extensive report. needed to use the restroom and they were locked. the Librarian would not let me in unless I put all of my work away first. I was the only one there and that was about a 5 to 10 minute process. How insane. they are on a power trip and should be replaced with people who know how to work with people and not treat a 56 year old like a child.
