Lockport Public Library

The atmosphere is a dream for kids and adults. Spectacular variety of books, magazines, audio books, videos, video games, and even art up for rent. The librarians are also kind and resourceful. I finished my master’s degree in a quiet desk on the second floor and couldn’t have done it without this free, beautiful resource.

I visited the library today because my printer ran out of ink and office max closed. Regardless I'm going to fill the cartridges with a refill kit and save tons of money. Incidentally the price per/pg at the library is only .15 cents. In addition I signed up to volunteer at the 'Fabulous Fall Used Book' sale which is on Thursday the 16th for 'friends' and Friday 9-4 and Saturday 10 -4. Depending when you read this is an annual event. So consider supporting your local community and find a treasure trove of knowledge.

I spend most of my time in the children's section. There are tons of picture books that are well organized, lots of board books, new books on a regular basis, and great toys--play kitchen, costumes, coloring. There's another room for older kids with tons of books, a room for groups and crafts, and a single bathroom with counter built in for a changing table. My husband loves the desks upstairs when he needs a quiet place to study.

Wonderful library. Comfortable and with approachable, helpful staff. Even have a dedicated section selling used books.

Beautiful historic architecture melds seamlessly with the modern addition. Comfy armchairs set in front of gorgeous old fireplaces make the perfect place to sample a book before the always-friendly staff helps you check out your favorite selection.
