Best library in the valley. So many classes and activities. Staff is fantastic. Books categories are separated well to cover the whole building. *chef kiss* The kids area is fantastical and large. So they are able to have an enclosed outside playground, 0-5 play area and are and a huge play castle; while still having all the kids books around. Meaning unless you are at the entrances of the kids area, you dont really hear them to much. Plus there is a librarian in that zone that helps keep the kids at a reasonable volume There are TONS of study rooms. Spaces specifically designed for only teens to enter which makes me feel safe. 3D printers and a studio room for making videos and music. Beautiful view of the mountain. Lovely layout of the building. To address the noise and homeless Due to the library having so many amenities. And people Actually LIKE going. It is louder than a normal libraries Ive been to in the valley. But its not the volume of Walmart or a park okay? Everyone is aware of where they are at and keeps to a low-normal talking level. The first section of library you enter into is the loudest (checkout, computers, front desk). But like I said there are study room all around the library, and as you go away from the normal traffic, it does get quiet. The homeless: yes. There are a few. But the security guard talks to them and knows them. Its not like the homeless in other cities. They dont bother anyone. Ive seen them just being people (as they are) using the PUBLIC computers, sitting and resting at the PUBLIC little cafe area or respectful talking to one another by the piano seating area. All of which Ive seen everyone else in the library do. So, its not like they are bothering and asking for money or being disrespectful of the building. (As for the shirt less homeless that other reviewer saw. If you live in Apache junction, youve seen him everywhere. He just prefers that. Eats at frys and subway. Just his life, he also doesnt wear shoes- oh no! lol Ive seen my elderly snobird neighbors half naked on the SIDEWALK sunbathing, when the pool is a 2 min walk from there house. Whats their excuse? Chill. Weve lost our tolerance for normal human behaviors and benefits of the doubt. No need to leave a library a bad for it).
