By far the worst of the 3 Denton branch libraries because of the repugnant-smelling, rude, panhandling homeless degenerates who congregate here because they can't be bothered to spend their days job hunting. No fault of the faculty, mind you.
I enjoy bringing my toddler here for story time and Anita and Mr. Carroll are so friendly and helpful. I had to detract a star because of the homeless people. I understand that they should have a place to go especially in the summer and in the winter to escape the elements. That said, they have a complete disregard for the rules at the library. almost every single time that I'm there, I've seen a police officer there to speak with a homeless person causing a problem in the library. They're also always outside smoking directly underneath the no smoking signs. I also saw my stolen bicycle there one day. (I had to resist stealing it back.) There's also one homeless guy I see sitting at the same computer every time that I go with my child. He sits right next to the door that leads to the storytime room. Every time the children lineup to enter the room, he is staring at all of them with a really strange look on his face. He removes his headset and just grins at the children as they file in. It gives me a very uneasy feeling.
It's okay. While the fiction section isn't all that extensive, the DVD selection is above par (even though many of them are so scratched up they lock up in your player). It seems to me the middle section on the second floor is a whole lot of wasted space -- take out the computers and put more books in. I wouldn't recommend leaving anything valuable unattended, though, because this place seems to attract a lot of bums. Staff is nice and knowledgeable, and the location which is just 2 blocks from downtown is convenient.
There is something magical about this library. I have some of the fondest memories of my childhood associated with this place. It’s old and maybe not the most high tech library in Denton county but it has a charm all its own and some wonderful architecture. I can’t wait for my little ones to be old enough to explore the library and return to me with all of the wonderful treasures they have found.
Not Open but yet when I called them they said they were going to be open
