St Joseph County Public Library: what do users think?
Alan OBlenis: Beautiful Library, today was voting November 8th stood outside in the morning for a half an hour in the cold then inside for about 25 minutes before I got a chance to vote. Not sure why with all the empty schools they couldn't have used one of their gyms. I was a building engineer for 17 years they always used my school. Voting was nice and orderly. I hope everyone got out to vote and had a great day.
Angela V: The staff are beyond friendly and personable! It's super clean, quiet but not so quiet that you feel if you drop a book you'll be side eyed. The little kiddo play area is super cute and looks like it'll keep kids entertained for awhile! I learned that if you are a library card holder you can use their private rooms for non-profit meetings for free which is pretty awesome as well. Over all - pretty great place to be!
Kevin Dyer: My experience at all the public libraries has always been great their all always helpful ,nice and polite

Raynard Wilson: Great people and very good learning place for youth.
ImQuackers the Totally Quackers: My first visit to this location awestruck me.Tolkien, C. S Lewis, and A. A. Milne are represented on children's tables here. The stories include iconic scenes such as the window from Tolkien's Hobbit. There's a tower-dime painted for the kids. The sundial uses your own shadow. Check it out.

Sheila Johnson: It was clean, quiet and the staff were very helpful.

Dee Botka: Convenient location. Friendly and helpful staff
Shakayla Moore: Very loud library. There are people at the computer, talking on the phone extremely loud. People talking across the room and some of the staff are just unprofessional.

Randy Stilley: Great friendly library! Great staff
Susan Dampeer: I used to love this library until they added a giant gate to discourage visitors. Every time I go to Meijer I am sad that I can no longer stop by my local library. I now happily use the welcoming ironwood branch.
