Reviews
tripadvisorThis library is very unique in that it's a beautiful historic home converted years ago to a classy library. In addition to the typical resources you would expect to find in a library, it is very engaged in community programs. For instance, just before the holidays throughout December, the library held a collection event for the shelter to home rescue in Wyandotte. Many dropped off blankets, dishes, toys and anything else that dogs and cats could use at the shelter. I loved bringing my kids and grandchildren to this very unique library over the years. In fact, I took a friend's child several years ago for a haunted story telling in the library's cool attic on the upper level. I continuously check the Wyandotte home page for library events at the Bacon Library. It's a very special place that is well worth checking out.
MoreWay too loud in here. Old dames screeching on the top of their lungs, little brats running and screeching all over the library. And the dames have their phones on so you will be interrupted by their ring tones. This place is horrible.
MoreWe love this library. AC in the summer. Close to the park. They rent fishing poles!!! Great book exchange and books for sale. Beautiful building. Great programs. We are lucky to live so close.
MoreI lived in Wyandotte as a child, when the Bacon House WAS the Library, and before the new extensions were built. I've recently moved back, renewed my library card (they found my old membership!) and surveyed the current facility. The old card catalogs are gone, and lots of work stations/computers/printers, with staff to help. Renewing my card was easy, staff friendly and helpful. I have rather esoteric tastes (I have read a biography of Cicero in Latin ....) and they were non-plused and are part of a library exchange to help get me the items I need/want.
MoreGreat architecture on a former ships captain home on the river. Vista and aura that every library should have.
