Best places: Public libraries in Plainedge, United States

😠 This is a much needed , overdue review , but a difficult one to write , as this once magnificent library has gone so frighteningly downhill over the last 20 years due to awful management dovetailed with a combination of public indifference and ignorance . Most people take libraries for granted , as...

😠 I have to say i was extremely disappointed at my visit to the library today. My daughter requested that we arrive right at 9 am so that she can quietly sit and look up some books. Unfortunately, the staff (4 females and 1 male) decided to take 58 minutes to discuss the following in a childrens area...

😠 Extremely RUDE STAFF. Security guy yelled at my 4-year-old for making little and short noises in the cafeteria. It wasn’t even loud and was very brief. That noise was made by him dragging the chair that his toy was sitting on, close to him, because that’s what kids do. It’s called the “security toy....

😠 The volume in this library by the three staff members sitting next to the information center is astronomical. They continued to talk about life conversations engaging in extremely loud laughter as me and my friends sat at the table trying to peacefully study. If I wanted to hear volume in the back I...

👍👍 I have recently joined here! But I like the studying environment here! And the staffs are very helpful.

😠 Horrible library to study in. I come here only when the usual library I go to is closed and I end up just wasting my time. It's impossible to concentrate with all the noise. The staff at the desk are so inconsiderate and have loud conversations with each other while people are sitting at the desks c...

👍👍 OMG THEY HAVE BIG CHUNGUS LOLOLOLOLO GIMME IT BEST LIBRARY EVER

😐 Let’s start by saying that ( in my opinion ) I feel this library was an investment for Merrick that was not needed. The old library that was there was fine. This building is just to large. There’s very few books compared to others, very few dvd movies, and I don’t think they have magazines unless th...

😠 The library was good but THE STUDENTS WERE SO NOISY every school day afternoon.They were TALKING ALL THE TIME. Sometimes even talking all the time in the quiet study room. And of course the staff cannot make them be quiet.

👍👍 Parking is a challenge as it is on school property. DVD movies are few. Look to other libraries for movies. Book selection is the same but before going, go to alisweb.org to find what you are looking for & which library has the book, DVD, etc. I go there to use the computer. Find I can use it & not...

😠 Children's section too loud with kids. Parents don't care about others in there. Place is run down. For the amount of taxes for the area, should be a nicer place. Needs an improvement, like another building all together!
