This is a really modern library that combines books and digital assets. The staff are helpful. Psst: visiting Cumberland after a long road trip? They have public washrooms.

I've been here before. I've been here on multiple occasions. It's all true; I wrote a nice little journal piece about each of my many visits to this location. Often, when I visit a place as unique and dastardly as this one, I will take time out of my day to write in my personal journal about all the places that I have visited. I have visited this library on a Tuesday, a Wednesday, and a Monday. I rather enjoyed the Monday visit; I have a somewhat soothing feeling boiling inside of my heart about the Tuesday visit, and I ended up with a tremendous cough and cold from the Wednesday visit. The cough and the cold were treated with a home remedy of gasoline and cornstarch. Which brings me to my assessment of the facilities. If you were to ask me years ago if I had ever considered reviewing a local library, I would have shuddered in my shoes, for who has time to partake in such a cruel and mundane endeavor? With the advent of computers, we are all busier than ever.

I've lived in a lot of places and this is the worst library I've ever experienced. It's new and clean, but this library lacks energy, personality, and inspiration. This place heavily caters towards children and has few books, events, or programming of interest for anybody over 10 years old. Opening hours are terrible - nearly impossible for anyone who works a regular work day.

Small, but quaint. Nice seating areas and views out the windows.

Great little library for our town. It’s linked into the VIRL network too! Request any book in the system online with your card.
