Starr Library Rhinebeck

Mid-Hudson Valley Library System Road Trip- Very nice library- huge childrens area (we left with a large stack of graphic novels) and generally a nice space. Also really liked all the bird themed art. Bonus that it is in the park, easy walkable from the pool and playground. If my kiddos were a little younger we could spend a whole day here.

Ms. Pockets, as the children call her, is amazing. She is very welcoming, helpful and knowledgeable. And she has been putting on the most amazing children events all summer. Thank you for improving our library so much. We can’t wait to come back!

I had only recently started coming to this Library despite having lived in this beautiful town for over 14 years. I am so amazed with the resources that are available here as well as the interlibrary communications that allow you to order books from all over the Hudson valley. And I highly recommend this Library and I appreciate the overall friendliness of the staff

Children’s programming and staff need more education and tolerance around neurodiversity.

Glad to see the Mr Stephen Cook finally left. He was nice to some but had a horrible stuck attitude other times. Was rude to me when I was there with my kids in the children's section no less & made me feel unwelcome. This is after I supported that library for years no less. I do hope the new director is more pleasant, kind, & has an overall better attitude. I didn't do anything at all to that vile man to be treated the way I was on more than one occasion ***Update 2023-the whole vibe of this place has changed for the better since the new director took over. She is doing an amazing job. Everyone has been very kind, helpful & welcoming. Glad to see Stephen Cook gone he was the root of the problem**"
