I agree, beautiful building, and great selection of books and other mesia, but staff is not overly friendly. The Belleville west branch library is much smaller, but i will drive across town to go there mainly because the staff is so friendly, and helpful. We have been going there for years and feel like many of the librarians at the west branch are friends. Downtown: not so much. Sorry.

As the woman stated above ! The library is wonderful!! That being said the staff members at the library is a different story. There are a few wonderful women that work there that are really helpful and friendly. Unfortunately there are a few rude employees that make the library not so enjoyable. Because I love to read and want my children to love to read I will continue to visit the library.

Okay, so its a public library. And all public libraries are wonderful, simply because they are public libraries. This branch of the Belleville Public Library, however, is less wonderful than the numerous other public libraries I have been to.
I was happy to be allowed to use their computers while traveling from out of the area.. I was not happy though to be asked to share the 15 minutes the curt, male librarian gave us (locals get 30-60 minutes) on the computer terminal that my boyfriend was using, especially because there were other open terminals. Their computers were incredibly slow.. running Windows 98, are you? Yes... but at least we could (s l o w l y) make use of the internet.
In addition to plentiful slow computers, they also have two floors full of books and other good things in an air conditioned building right off the main drag. And the bathrooms in the lobby are locked for my safety. Woot.Listed in: I -LOVE- libraries!
