Park Ridge Public Library

We only hung out at the kids area, which is separated from the rest of the library by a door. Love the way they have the picture books so we can easily browse the covers. Graphic novel section has lots of good books. There are lots of new books. There's a calming room that doubles as a nursing room and it's awesome. There are sensory stuff in there and even a weighted blanket. Staff are friendly and helpful.

I honestly wouldn’t even consider this a library. More like a hangout space for teenagers and they don’t enforce low talking and whispers. People are literally having whole conversations that I can hear from across the room. If you want a real quiet library this is not the library for you. But if you want a hangout spot and don’t care about noise then you have nothing to worry about.

Overall, it is a very nice library, very clean, quiet, and well maintained. The staff is very friendly. There are sections for children, teens, and adults. The first floor is reserved for children and nice, clean, and joyful. Great to visit with children. Lots of study desks are available on the 2nd floor. Perfect for studying! Free 3-hour limited parking is near the library.

One of the nicest libraries in the area quiet, spacious, and run by people who clearly care about the experience they provide. Always a positive visit.

Lovely branch! This location was used for Judge of Election Nursing Home Training. Plenty of parking.
