Desert Broom Library

Beautiful facility. Very helpful staff. Lacey gave me a good intro to the library and a tour of how everything works. Happy to be a part of the library system!

onderful Story Time & Beautiful Library! I take my 22-month-old daughter to the free story time whenever we can, and she absolutely loves it! She always has so much fun—it’s such a great program for little ones. The library itself is beautiful, and the staff are always so kind and welcoming. We’re so lucky to have this in our community!

We came to this library to try a story-time with the kids while visiting. My overall impression is that they don’t like children or understand early childhood development. The story-time was advertised as birth-5yo with stories, music and dancing.

The main thing I don't like is they have an area set up for kids but expect the kids to be quiet. That just doesn't work well for toddlers. If the kids area was more separated or closed off it'd be much better so kids can be kids and not disturb the adults using other parts of the library. They do have kids classes but only during the week so it doesn't work well for working parents to take their kids to those activities. Other than that it's a pretty decent standard library and nice to have one in this area
