Staunton Public Library

A good library, fairly well stocked and with the latest technology. If I have a complaint, it's common. As most readers are women, the stock reflects that, and caters to it. Completely understandable and the right thing to do, but difficult if you are looking for books that cater more to men. I was looking for certain particular books by Jon Clinch, Pete Dexter and Dennis Lehane and would have to do an inter-library loan. Easy enough, but I wish they were on the shelf.

Ridiculous that you cannot use the meeting rooms unless you are non-profit. I thought public library met for the public. Must be a policy just for this library never had this issue in other public libraries that we have used for meetings for our remote employees.

The staff here are some of the nicest people I’ve met in Staunton. The library does double as the local homeless populations hub and can smell bad.

This library has a lot to offer. Great handouts and materials for you to take on their services and programs. Several newspapers to read daily, quiet reading room, self check out, and quick internet computers if you have to use a computer fast.

Very nice library. The ladies who assisted me were very kind and helpful.
