The Bellevue Library - Bummer

Well, we went to the library a few weeks ago just to get an idea of what they may have! When I had first seen the outside of the library I told John we were going back in time! :) Well, yesterday was verification of that! Our branch library is smaller than the children's section at "our" Allen library! Not only that - it is not organized well at all. To top it all off, the front librarian that was helping me get my library card activated told me that story time was a good time to bring children to the library because of all of the other kids that were already there (so we wouldn't be the only children and bother others is what she was getting at). Well, I personally want a library where children are welcome ALL the time! I was a little bummed. I know that my children were not disturbing others etc. I was highly aware of the noise level the entire time I was there - trying to be very careful that we didn't disturb others. A lady that was there looking for books for her children (she home schooled them last year, but they are in school this year) - told me that the main branch was better organized and had great story times etc. Guess we will be going downtown to the library when I can't get it put on hold online! :) I am thankful that I have options!
