July 24, 2021travel a lot in calif and nevada.forced to use my hotspot. wifi most unstable of any library.forced to use high back chairs to plug-in laptop. floor plugs to round tables locked. forced to wear a mask.forced to pay for parking. even on Saturday when courts are closed

This is at the heart of Santa Barbra with a great book and media collections, lovely children's section, and 3 galleries that feature local art groups and artists. Always worth a stop and your support. reading and appreciating the local culture is very important

The library is not only a masterpiece of architecture, but it is also a force for good in the community. The children's library on the lower lever has amazing programs and wonderful books and materials--even toys for toddlers. The variety of materials in a wide area of media is also amazing--seldom do I have a long wait for books I have reserved. Their book club and volunteer program is also wonderful. Keep up the good work

Our local library has been ahead of the curve for a while now, and continues to offer the latest services for all ages. (This coming from an old guy) The interior has been recently remodeled, and the outside landscaping is next, making it less attractive to the local transient population. All changes have been for the best.
