★★★☆☆ 3.0 Hana Alsed Hassan · Oct 2025

Dear [Library Manager/Director], I am writing to express a concern regarding my recent visit to your library last week. I decided to come because a friend told me it is more beautiful than the Naugatuck Library. I went with my friend and our children, and at first, everything was wonderful. The two ladies at the front desk greeted us with warm smiles and made us feel very welcome. However, I had an uncomfortable experience with one of your staff members — a man wearing glasses. Throughout our visit, he kept looking at me in a way that made me feel unwelcome and disrespected. I didn’t understand the reason for his behavior. I eventually asked him why he was staring, and only then did he look away and stop. I believe that working in a library, especially one that welcomes families and chi

It's ridiculous that You have to live in that City to get a Library card. It's obvious that the Person wanting the card lives near that Library and doesn't want to go to the one in Their City. The Library is supposed to be free to all People. If You have an ID or a license there is no reason why You can't get a Library card. I think it's a shame that the Library is like that. I also think it's ridiculous. Once again the Library should be for Everyone not just the Residents

Used to be a favorite place of mine until the COVID scare. Honestly, I know we have to all be cautious and careful. But I think about a year into it, it's a little extreme to walk into a place that has almost every nook and cranny wrapped in thick plastic with face shields and gloves that look like the hospital scene in E.T.. It's a LIBRARY, for crying out loud! Hospitals didn't even look like that at the height of COVID. Perhaps staying closed until things were better (and they WERE) was a better option.

★★★★★ 5.0 Christine S. · Aug 2017

This library has a great selection of books, but my family enjoys a lot of the activities, summer reading program, STEM, book related crafts, holiday events and much more. This library is greatly involved in their community. Over the summer of the children made homemade ice cream in a bag, they gave out Eclipse classes for the children and had an event for it, they have great book sales for $0.50 a paperback.... and I can go on. This is a great library to visit and an even better library to support.
