Southglenn Library

Wonderful area and a super clean building. Their staff is always helpful and friendly. The only thing I wish they have more is more varieties of books.

This is one of the coolest libraries I’ve ever been to. It’s on the second floor and there’s a balcony so you can read or study on the balcony and enjoy the nice weather. I love the location since its in the middle of the shopping center and there are lots of areas to do some quiet reading or studying.

Endless books, movies, music CDs. Endless entertainment for kids of all ages.
Love going there every day.
Highly appreciated staff specially 6972 S Vine St, Centennial, CO 80 122
from Technology section.
Let me put it this way. Its my second home. Feel safe happy and enjoyable. George from staff helped me not only to print my 3D pyramid but also customized it for me as i asked.

Superior studio, good hours, excellent location. Positive far outweighs the weak points.
Suggestions:
— Have a way to book time with a technical expert online.
— Separate the banks of desktops into groups of four to avoid noise.
— Have a few more comfortable areas to sit.
— Make sure the coffee machine works
Ranks with Koelbel as the best libraries in the district.

This is amsaaaazing! Free 3d printer and tech lab! Wow!
Librarians are nice! What? Nice librarians? Wowza! We don’t make those in Denver. It is NOT allowed.
Mostly the selection of e-​Books on the arapahoe library is what I was after. They have ALOT.
Beautiful space.

Really like this library! They have nooks you can check out! How cool is that? I am not sold on the digital book but figured I would give it a try. Why not? I get to use it for 3 weeks for free. I am more of a book addict… love the pages and actual physical book… but guess I will see if one of these (or kindle or some version of it) ends up on my birthday or Christmas wish list! :)

This library is tucked into the southern edge of the South Glenn shopping area. It’s not real big but is very bright, airy, and comfortable.
What I like best is there is plenty of seating areas if you want to stop and do some reading or research. Most of the seating is close to large north-​facing windows, so you get light but not the blinding sunshine. There is also a faux-​fireplace which adds to the comfort level.
The library has about a dozen PC terminals for internet access. These often fill up by noon, but you can reserve a terminal and when someone’s time runs out they’ll be kicked off. There’s also a quiet room and a children’s area.
The book selection is not the best. Some categories (like transportation/​autos) have virtually no books on hand. Others section, like cook books. fiction, and children’s seem well stocked. There’s a good DVD choice too.
One down side to this library is the parking. There is a mammoth parking garage across the street, but it’s often filled on the side nearest the library. The other best option is parking near Sears, but it’s not convenient for a quick stop. There is sometimes a steady stream of cars coming down Vine Street too. Cross at your own risk!

I had a big exam last month, and when I got tired of studying at my house, Southglenn Library was a lifesaver. They have a lot of comfortable tables and chairs, power outlets are everywhere, and there’s a lot of natural light, which creates an environment very conducive to studying. The patio is nice too, and even has power outlets. Even in the group study areas where a lot of people are there, it seemed to stay quiet as people managed to stay at a reasonable volume. They also allow you to bring in drinks and snacks as long as you’re not in the books section, which is a perk when you’re there for the long haul.
Book selection seems good for the size of the library, if not fantastic. Their used book sale has some great deals. WiFi is all around, although very tricky to set up if you’re unlucky enough to have Windows 8. Personnel are friendly and helpful. I don’t have kids, but it looks like they had some pretty cool programs for the little ones out there, and I support anything that gets kids to read instead of watching TV. Parking is easy in the Southglenn garage across the street.
I was spoiled with some very nice university libraries in grad school, but as far as community libraries go, this is a great spot!

Adding another star. This library may not have every book under the sun, but it has plenty of amenities. Meeting and study rooms, reading nooks, and laptops everywhere. Think of it more as an e-​café with a larger reading selection.

This library may be small and as a result has a smaller selection of reading material, HOWEVER this is my favorite library in the Arapahoe County District. Very well designed with lots of little sitting areas, fantastic natural lighting, and outdoor patio and did I mention they have a huge selection of MAC computers. Really a great place to go meet clients, work on projects and get some quite time in.

Just didn’t seem like a library.
Very little selection, and of what there was, they were on these tiny movable racks. Maybe with the digitalization of just about everything, this will be the way libraries adapt?

Every since they’ve remodeled Southglenn, it is amazing. The library is no exception. They had a fire going with armchairs and portable laptop tables you can roll right up to your seat by the fire. Great staff, sweet location, big improvement!

My all-​time favorite library.
Southglenn moved to this location last summer, it’s located at the Streets of Southglenn. The new location just like the old one is rather small. There isn’t a lot of material at the branch, but by using their website you have access to every item of the Arapahoe Library District.
Not only that by clicking Prostector Search you can search for material of other libraries. I have been able to borrow from the Denver Public Library.
Southglenn Public Library has saved me a lot money. I have no need for Blockbuster or Netflix. Most of the movies that are released are here. You’ll just need to place a hold on them and you’ll be able to borrow them for a week.
Librarians have been always helpful. They have solved any problem I had. There are meeting rooms you can use as well as personal computers. And WiFi access!
