Marshall County Library

Nice librarians & very good place to read books & learn about history

I attended: Gloria Gipson Suggs talked about her long career and her life in the Mississippi area as a primitive artist, poet, singer & oral historian; telling of her life in a big family during the depressive era of reconstruction. She is the winner of many awards for her contributions to the arts, the spoken word, songs & her storytelling about life in rural Mississippi

I took my son to this library so he could check out books for AR for his school. I'd returned all his books on time, but somehow he has a fine under his name from July. We never even visited the library after April, and that was to return his books. So now they are trying to charge me for a late fee thats their fault for not checking the book back in on time even though we returned it on time. And they still expect me to pay it after I explained the situation to them. Will not be returning to this library at all. He will continue to get his books from his school from now on.

Lacking books that cover and introduce you to useful trades, automotive industry, computer science, plumbing, carpentry, music sampling/mixing, writing, music cd's. Staff is wonderful, issue is lack of funding and books. There is room for improvement. Let's look for doners, state grants. Or partner with better resourced libraries in neighboring counties.
