    I absolutely love our library and consider it a terrific asset for our community. My one extremely felt frustration is that even when talking to the librarians at the customer service desk, I have been directed to the self serve kiosks. In a world that is losing touch with human interactions, I cherish being and seeing warm smiles and kind faces. Please stop directing people to the kiosks if they come to you.

    This used to be a great place for DVDs/Free Movies. Unfortunately, the people they let use dvd's don't respect the property. It's sad when you open the case and the DVD is really scratched and sticky. Ruined my player :-(
