Plainedge Public Library

I just had a fantastic experience in this library. I use libraries mostly for faxing and copying. The staff helped me tremendously! They are kind, understanding and extremely helpful. I couldn't be happier with the assistance that they provided. Without their help I wouldn't have been able to complete a tremendously important task. Thank You!!!

Beautiful library. Very helpful staff, especially the Reference staff!!

Much of staff spends the day talking to each other. Every time I go there, when they finally acknowledge me, I feel like I should apologize for interrupting them. Most of the time, the number of staff exceeds the number of residents using the library.

I totally disagree with those reviewers who posted disparaging remarks about the staff here . While the stresses from a day's work , sometimes with difficult patrons , might cause one to be impatient , that is very rarely the case here . HOWEVER , there are other , major issues here . Out of the whole community , only 102 people have given this once great library a thumbs up on Facebook . What does that say ? I have loved this place for almost 50 years , but the decision of the present director to allow its exceptional classical music collection to be gutted , along with much of its history holdings , breaks my heart . I pray that the board will wake up and prevent the gutting of Plainedge's incomparable classic literature collection ( Jane Austen to Hemingway ) . While it is understood

Whenever we go to rent movies, they always have the latest up to date movies we want. It's really a nice quaint place to consume media, if a bit outdated in some of the cataloguing services. Overall, a nice decent place to be.
