Mattoon Public Library

Always a wonderful experience! We absolutely love the kids floor!

I hate when Mattoon beats Charleston at things. It really does cause me pain but ya they win in the kids library division.

Nice Place. Fun Reading Program. Plenty of Books and Movies.

Our library is fantastic! The staff are always helpful, the place is so well kept, and there are Plenty of books. I can always find what I need. I mostly go in to print off papers at one of their computer/printers (.25 cents per copy). But, on the 2nd floor they have a big kids area with children's books, toys, cozy kids chairs, tables, and papers/crayons to color! My kids (3 and 6) love it! Also, there is a basement they rent out for small gathers, bday parties, meetings, etc.

Be very careful when leaving your kids. Caught an employee who said he was one of the directors looking in the bathroom stall at my 5 years old son. He claimed he was "checking on him.". After speaking to a few other parents they shared similar complaints about the individual.
