Hawthorne Library

I went to the library with my 3 year old and returned the books from a different library. We were there for almost an hour then my daughter wanted to check out more books for the week. And when I go to check out, the machine says that I have damage fees. When I go to the attendant in the front, I said the machine isn’t letting me check out. She didn’t even fully acknowledge me and said , “yeah you damaged the books” accusing me of something I didn’t do. The couple ripped pages that the books had were already there when I checked them out. How was I supposed to know that the books I checked out didn’t have the damage noted in the system. If they can see my account. Out of all the times I’ve rented, I’ve never once damaged any property. But the review is solely based on the attendant who was

Excellent library. Quiet. Lots of tables and seating areas. Great for kids and learning.

Absolutely wonderful little library in Hawthorne. Friendly staff and calm/quiet environment.

Everyone is very pleasant and helpful. Good selection of books and nice atmosphere.
