Lovett Memorial Library reviews
6The facility is nice, and staff are nice and helpful, otherwise it sucks. Seems like they're always closed. You go there to pick up[ a hold and their closed for staff reason or no air condition or whatever. THIS IS A REAL PROBLEM!
Such weird hours and very sporadic with closures. I showed up after there was no notice of closure on the website, and there was a closed sign. I call the number they provided on the door to try to pick up my on hold items, and there is no option to speak to anyone. Rendering pick up impossible.
Every time I try to go to the library they are closed for cooling issues. Makes it hard to pick up books that I've reserved. My schedule is erratic so I don't want to schedule a pick up. I wish they were open on Saturday.
The staff are very noisy and unprofessional. It is a library after all.
The staff here are simply lovely! The building is fully wheelchair accessible, including the bathrooms. They have a variety of programs for children. And, they have a nice outside area with tables and chairs where you can sit or eat. Just a little gem!
I checked its website and it indicated that the library was scheduled to close at 5 p.m. I arrived at 3: 35 p.m. On the Friday before Memorial Day weekend and found they were closed. I guess it was too much to expect for our tax dollars to see libraries adhering to their posted hours regardless of whether a holiday weekend is around the corner or not. When I saw that this library was closed, I went to the nearby Wadsworth library and, again, the posted hours on its website did not hold up with the reality that it, too, was closed hours before the posted information.
