Library! at Hillcrest

The librarian was awesome!! We talked about books we have in common. The Hillcrest Library branch is my favorite!!

Love this library! Never too busy and staff is friendly. I did pull up too close to the curb in the parking lot and scrap the bottom of my car really bad. But that's not the libraries fault. Highly recommend this library! Just be careful when parking.

Extremely nice facility and helpful staff. I came in to get some mandatory education done for work, and use their computer. I live in Boise and work in Nampa. Now, I haven't used libraries much over the years, so I can't say exactly WHEN it changed, but this library was so different from when I was a kid and used to go more often. The difference is that it WAS SO LOUD in there! I was there for several hours trying to get my work done, and I had a hard time concentrating on some challenging subject matter.nIt was so strange. Everyone was talking in normal voices, and kids were running around.nNow, I don't begrudge little children having fun, and I can understand some occasional distractions at a library. I mean, I'm not a monster, but this was FAR from the library etiquette of my youth.nLovely facility, great resource to have in the neighborhood, but don't go there expecting to get any type of studying done. Quiet is not enforced in any way. Very strange.

Staff was helpful and quick.

Besides the staff being friendly and super helpful, and they just made nice upgrades, it is very sad to see it is like a ZOO/ARCADE game room! So many kids playing games on the computers making all kinds of noise, running around. It is very difficult to enjoy quietness for studying or reading. Very disappointed.
