Mexico Audrain County Library

My my Great Grandma Stuart land I built a ton of, Absolutely great memories in this particular library. I remember at a very young age going upstairs and having storybook time with the librarian as well as the huge and I do mean huge Panda that they have that is constructed out of of white and black Legos. it's been there since before I was a kid and I was born in 1984. you should totally take some time with the kiddos and come check out our ★★★AWESOME LIBRARY★★★ located in Mexico Missouri...... not to mention the library that is attached to the backside of our library.... was said to be moved from somewhere here Missouri.....piece by piece. that's a true story.....kinda... I truly don't have all the details.....but if you're interested I'm sure that our local librarians can help you find

This is a jewel of a historic library. The books are hugely varied (and if they don't have it- they help you locate it elsewhere). Both adult and children's programs offered are amazing for such a small library. And the staff are to be commended for their commitment to protect the integrity of this old library. I have been coming to this library for over 40 years and it is still one of my favorite places to breathe in book smells, and enjoy some peaceful moments reading. Did I mention the architecture?...that's worth the trip in too.

Very clean and tidy library. Decent selection. The help desk is very helpful; when I call about inquiries, they always answer. The children's section is child friendly. Handy cap accessible (and stroller friendly) with a ramp at the entrance, push-button entrance doors, and an elevator. Very pleased to have this resource in town.

I went to the front desk to ask if i could use my laptop there to search for a job. She said i needed a library card, so need a MO state ID. I explained that i didn't officially move to MO yet, still have an IL ID but need to find a job in MO soon. She didn't budge, so i instisted, explained that I'm currently staying out in the country with no internet, i practically begged till she finally okayed. For 3days i would go to 1of the 2(or more) computer areas, filled with computers but only 2-3people there at a time. I'd push the keyboard back and place my laptop there and plug it in. Until the lady came by and said " you can't plug in your laptop there" i said "ok, I'm sorry about that." i unplugged my laptop and kept working on my application. She came back "Ma'am, i said you can't have you

It is always nice to know that I have a place I can go, that is reliable, clean, and inexpensive where I can go in and make some copies or print off anything from my email. Thank you ladies.
