W. Walworth Harrison Public Library

My favorite place in Greenville. Getting a library card was the best thing I could do for my mental health. The staff is great and there are so many resources to use. I love this place! Thank you librarians and staff for making it so wonderful.

This Library has a nice variety of books and a lot of community activities to enjoy. That being said I have had a few frustrating experiences when it comes to checking out/registering.

When the pandemic hit, they hit the ground running, providing so much online content and resources, then when we could all be together again, they just never stopped! Our librarians are amazing, so kind and helpful, and they LOVE their jobs! They always have a million programs going, tons of new things for the kids, they're great about acquiring any books you suggest they add to the collection, and it's just amazing! Occasionally I don't feel super comfortable visiting on my own with three small children because it's a refuge for the homeless when the weather is extreme--of course I don't begrudge them a safe, clean space!
