Best Library Warren Near Me

daniel j. kunnath: Great place to always spend the National Day of Prayer...Mayor Jim Fouts is the BEST!!... I prayed today that Mayor Fouts would continue to be our mayor, and solve the issue of term limits, he is facing. All faiths together...together...God always wins over evil with such a wonderful, large group of prayerful people coming together.

Don Klaser: Went to the library.

Sofía Syntaxx: Valerie at the front desk helped get my patron account sorted so that I could use the Hoopla app to access materials online. She was very friendly and patient as she took care of my situation. This is a really lovely library with lots of natural light and spaces to lounge.I especially like that the Warren Public Library Civic Center Branch offers a ring-tag card I can keep on my key chain so I always have it for those impromptu stop-ins!

Diane Pearson: Beautiful spacious Library. Reserved a meeting room which was perfect. Great experience and friendly staff.

Heather Slayton: New designated ballot box installed in front of city hall. 💖

Diane Merian: Easy to park and visit.Everyone so helpful and friendly.

Chloe Gregory-Pendley: Dead silent, if that's your thing. Went on a Thursday night to work on a group project and was asked to leave by a patron across the room because I guess our barely-audible whispering was too disruptive (we were so quiet I could hardly even hear my partner less than 2 feet away from me). Yes, this is a library and it's supposed to be quiet, but it's not a dedicated silent area (like University libraries have a dedicated silent floor). Never been in a library so quiet that setting down my binder felt disruptively loud.Library fulfills the need of a silent study space but not the community need of a place to work on group projects together. We could have reserved a room but the application process is a bit cumbersome for a small group.

Kathrine: my favorite place in Warren

Chris Michalec: Great place for learning!

Sue Foster: The staff is always available to help, the library has so much to offer in addition to books. Good hours and convenient for my needs!

Scott Soucy: I always find something new to read, and they always track down any special requests that I have, whether it's a book, CD or DVD. The staff is always a pleasure to deal with! I'll be stopping by this week to pick up another special request!

kristina Huey: Had to visit the clerk's office and it was super quick. Sometimes the lines are a tad long which makes your wait times longer but they are always quick, helpful, and professional.

Paul T: The clerks office is always a pleasure to work with. And the Ladies in the cashier are great too!

Love Cats: If you're late and you get library fines of more than $5.00 you'll be told you can't check anything out until it's paid. Then you'll get your account Blocked and won't be able to check out anything or put anything in Hold online or in person. When you get fined and don't pay it, and a few months or more pass then unexpectedly an additional $10 fine will be accrued for sending the patron bill to collections. I had to pay my fines or else never get a chance to check out anything again. I'm on Disability and that's so unfair and a bit greedy.

April Durecki: Worst library ever, rude employees and scammy will do whatever it takes to damage out a book that's perfectly fine.

Ashley: This library will literally charge you for a returned book claiming "its damaged out" when it is fine. I literally never even took the book out of the bag and returned it before I even got a chance to read it. Apparently this is so damaged of a book that can't be put back in circulation.

Twincutie Hansen (Twincutie02): Yes the staff is friendly. The post on here must be worker or relatives. The library does not really meet the needs of people who going to college. Please update this library very old school. This is an outdated library..old school, I will continue to use my friends library in Sterling heights.

Michael Piusinski: Great place. Huge library and a great selection! Great staff also

Edmond Perry: Got a library card and checked out a few CD's and video games.Good feeling going into the library again.

Margaret Giordano: This is a wonderful library. The staff are lovely and so helpful. Wouldn't change a thing. A happy place to be.I LOVE libraries......every single one.

David D: I stopped by this library at least monthly because it’s one of my favorite libraries. Librarians are always helpful by answering questions patrons have like book locations. The librarians also assist with copying and scanning papers. Librarian assistants are always friendly and working on placing books back to appropriate shelves. Children area is such nice atmosphere and the library always keeps variety of toys neatly stocked and for sensory play and imagination. Computers offer children educational games. They have weekly toddler group where kids have fun singing and listening to stories read by staff. Helpful tip is to always try to park on Arden Road which is located on north side of the library so you have easy and close access to the entry door.

Sam T.S.: The staff was nice, the library itself was clean - however it wasn’t super quite (there’s a kids area in one of the corners) and the bathrooms in the hallway outside the library were notttt the best.

Sondra Carpenter: The workers are always very pleasant and helpful.

CHUCK NIP: $2 visitor card to use computers for 1 day.

Scott Soucy: Always a good selection of books and CDs, and the staff is better than at some of the other branches, especially Amy, who works at the information desk!

Rahida Chy: I would not even give them a star. Rude librarians. Not giving privacy at all. Looking through backpack pocket and assuming I was eating food based on empty zipper bag.b

Deborah Duck: Great service and a well equipped library.

Laurie Jablonski: Love the library

Ariana Love: library could be nice if the workers weren’t so rude!! Every time I come in it’s a terrible experience and everyone I have asked have said the same thing. It doesn’t take much to be nice and be an understanding person. They absolutely hate if you’re coming in 15-20 minutes before they close even if what you need to do takes 5. I have received attitude from the women at the front desk many times. If you’re open until a certain time, there is no reason for you to get angry. Absolutely rude people.

Shams Chowdhury: Great place. Lots of books. Separate area for children. Arrange many activities all over the year. Very very friendly stuffs. Helpful. You can use internet. Paid photocopy , prints and fax service. 👍👍👍

Karam arous: Very Rude..unfriendly staff..especially the lady in stuffs check out...she even doesn't have any experience in talking and dealing with kids..l will never take my kids there again..We are so disappointed.

Rebecca: Giving one star It was my first time and because children area librarian was very unfriendly and seem hysterical over some toys that were on the floor.Also been very rude about telling kids been to loud.These were toddlers and preschoolersIt overall a nice Library

Krysti Flynn: Awful treament by a short curly hair librarian at the desk talking to me like a 5 year old. I am Appalled at the lack of professionalism at this library.

Scott Larkin: Two individuals working on may 5 one unwilling to get off her seat and pointed me to a guy at the info desk who is making political cold calls instead of helping at the library just sad with tax paid city employeesGet paid for.

Bret Kuhnhenn: Great time for the kids

H Begum: It's legit.

Manar Masry: Friendly staff, clean, calm during the week, new library.I like it.Good for students and family. But if you prefer quiet library to study this is not the good choice, cause the children area is open and some kids are so noisy, you can't concentrate

Ann Kulczycki: Craft night. It was great.

Stephie Corpse: This library is indeed small but whenever I went there staff has always been polite, so helpful, and always being friendly ro whoever enter the building. Helped out whenever I needed to look for something. And they keep the inside just as clean as the outside. Remember folks, treat others how you want to be treated. Be rude get rude back simple huh?

Sonia George: This is a very nice and clean library. I like to often come here and study. However staff always allow this lady who appears to be homeless enter the building; carrying a suitcase and empty dirty cans. This is very unsanitary. I was sitting in the back area she arrived, drinking a can of pop rudely burping, I told the Librarian how I was there to study and was being distracted, I was asked to move. So unfair if this lady was African American she would have been escorted out of the library but she was white and I’m black, so I had to move.Still injustice in 2021.

Kristel Ezell: I made a mistake and left my library card at home and asked the Librarian was it possible if she could pull my information up in the system to prove that I do have one. Very rudely she says I need your ID. On the front of my ID I have my physical address, and on the back is my mailing address. She immediately says I can't use the ID because it has Detroit on the back. I tried to explain to her the situation and she continued to say that I can't use their computers. I told the Librarian I was not there to use the computers in a very polite manner and she simply gave my card back as if she did not want to hear anything else. She refused to even look me up in the system. I think that was very rude and disrespectful. I am trying to utilize the library to assist my daughter with a book report and would've even copied the pages, but instead of servicing me she was a disservice not to just me but my daughter as well. I believe they need to be trained on customer service because it was one of the worst experiences I had by far.

YVONNE HARRINGTON: Desk staff was knowledgeable, courteous and helpful. The new building is very clean and organized. Will refer friends to go there in a heartbeat!

Jim Stryker (Kergillian): It's a nice little library conveniently located in south Warren. The staff is friendly, they have enough computers so there is never a wait. All in all it's a great place.

This trip included an older table saw donation to the library. Look forward to their new location a couple blocks from the present site.

Karen Filipiak: Staff was very helpful & friendly!!!

William Nimbach: I just recently got a library card and it's just nice to come up and rent books and dvds. The staff has always been really nice and helpful.

Marinda Darnell (Cayt): The staff at CLPL are always friendly and willing to help. They have no problems leaving the counter to help find books, make suggestions, and to help teach someone how to use the library. They offer so many free classes and events, such as monthly art classes for all ages including adults! The science of ice cream event for elementary ages was fantastic this past summer.

Kevin Lackey: Very quiet and tucked away from the noise.

Virgina Tetter: No good computer

Richard Dziordziewicz: Great staff. Good parking with good provisions for handicapped and veterans!

Jimmy Yang: "A small town life style in the heart of Detroit". This library like the city of Center Line is hidden in the middle of everything yet is able to provide a getaway from the busyness of life. The location is not as accessible from the larger roads but tucked in a residential area. The library provides a nice quiet environment. There is a small kids area as well as a decent young reader's section. It also provides a decent audiobook and movie rental section. I wish the rental was free. With Netflix and other streaming services, it would be easier to just stream than pay. Also, if the tech could be upgraded for our children to keep the library fresh would be great. Finally, if there were meeting rooms for group collaboration it may draw some group to use the library more. Overall, the heart of a library is complete here. It is "a small town life style in the heart of Detroit".

Pastel Strawberry: Always enjoyed coming.

sara morris: Great place, awesome staff!! Will be back! ❤🤩❤

Deborah Duck: It was a bit noisy at first. Service was great!

C A Adams: I've been going to the Center Line Public Library since year 2005. The staff there are always willing to help you with your needs. Due to their staff, if I ever needed to use a computer, the wait time if any, was always under twenty minutes. Their library is clean, quiet and an enjoyable place to take your kids to visit.

Heather T: Love it!

Jeffrey Kenny: Last time I was there, several years ago, they didn't have WiFi. Have they gotten it yet?

gabriella barthlow: Friendly professional helpful staff

Azjové Edmond: There hasn't been a single time that I was here and it was actually quiet. Based on the exchanges I've heard, however, the staff seem to go above and beyond to make sure patrons can get the books they want.

Jamie Plum: My family absolutely loves this library. You can go on the computers as well as check out books, audio books, & DVD's. If you end up turning something in late they're very inexpensive on there late fee's. They also do a lot of things for children like puppet shows & a lot more & they offer a lot for adults like a dinner at the library for adults that have done 7 or more book reports & turn in the the card with your report on it. Also all there staff are really, really nice. I could go on on about all the great things this library offer's but I think I've done a good job on the review I've given!
