Galva Public Library

I'm 10 years old I really like going to the library it can be a calm place it can be a place where you meet up with your friends I usually come with my sister or my cousin Toledo library is amazing and I wouldn't want to change significantly but small add-ons for people who like anime or cartoons that would be perfect

The staff is always friendly and welcome you with a smile on their face! The library itself is a fun space with multiple levels. I like the children having their own space downstairs to both check out books but also a great spot to sit and read!

The ladies at the Galva Library are super friendly and helpful, and go out of their way to make sure that all of their patron’s needs are met both online and on site! If the library doesn’t have what I’m looking for, they are quick to utilize all resources available in order to procure the item. The ladies there are excellent at what they do and it’s obvious that they take pride in their work!

Our mother was a librarian here 50+ years ago. Going there after school was my first introduction to what I now think of as the "library aroma." An earthy nostril-tickling mix of dust, aging paper, leather bindings, and freshly-waxed floors. To this day, I'm most comfortable with holding a sturdy book in my hand as I read it. Kindles and ipads hold no allure for me in my love of reading and writing. The Galva Public Library is a local cathedral of learning (not to denigrate that kindred purpose in the Galva public schools, of course). Try to convince your children to spend quality time "mining" its shelves to find their personal interests and obsessions.

The ladies here are always so helpful! As soon as I walk in they greet me and ask me if I need help with anything. I am not computer savvy so if I mess up when I'm using the computer one of them will come and help me right away. If I am having trouble finding a book they will find it for me even if it's not in this library. 5 stars all the way❤️
