Hoover Public Library

Tonight was the Lt. Governor's debate Special shout out to the City of Hoover, Alabama Policy Action, and Right side media for making this happen! The venue was excellent! I had my children with me and they enjoyed hanging out in the children's section until the debate was over!

Absolutely love this library! I bring my toddler here nearly every day. The Hoover Public Library offers so much for both kids and adults. There’s a dedicated play area for younger children, a large kids’ section for reading and playing, and plenty of story times, including on Saturdays! There's also a teen area, a media section, two computer/printing areas, and even services like voting, passport applications, and passport photos (by appointment, 10 AM–3 PM). A police officer is stationed at the entrance, which adds a sense of security. You can check out up to 150 items of books, movies, games, and more. 150! That’s incredible. There’s ample parking, full accessibility for those with disabilities, and the library also partners with United Way and hosts food pantry events. I’ve even see

I love the quantity of books for adults and kids at this library. I also love the puzzle section....what a great resource! However, several times I've been treated rudely by the employees who check you out at the front desk.

I have been a paying patron (I live out of county) for over 20 years. HPL has so much to offer to patrons from little children to older adults. It is a staple in so many memories from when my daughter was just a toddler to now, and I find myself there every week. The service from the staff and services offered by the library are varied and outstanding, and it is a beautiful, clean, calming building with an enormous children's section, a cool teenager's section, and too much more to say. Just check out the website. In addition to checking out books, I participate in the free puzzle exchange, utilize Hoopla Digital for audiobooks, have been to concerts, etc. I just can't think of a single thing they could not be doing better. Thank you HPL!

Took 3 of our grandchildren to the Halloween Party tonight. They had a blast! We were so impressed with the amazing job the library staffers did preparing for and hosting this event. There were so many activities from which to choose. Our grands didn't want to leave! Hoover is so fortunate to have the people who staff this library.
