I lived in Jackson Square for a couple years over a decade ago now, and patronized this branch a few times. As the previous reviewer said, it’s quite small … but very quiet and calm. It was only open a couple days a week then, and has limited parking (it was within walking distance for me), so call ahead.

This is the weirdest little library on earth. It was also my library when I was learning to read. I think I thought that it was a giant fort built just for me. My brother and I used to play hide and seek in here. It was built in this very contemporary way which is sort of strange for this region. It has a lot of glass and unusual angles with random shafts of sunlight. It also has a little reading room for kids which closes off with sliding glass pocket doors– odd, like I said.
Anyway, it’s been a while since I’ve been. I remember the old card catalogs. Their selection was never great because it’s so tiny, but I do have some fun memories. Check it out if you’re in town.
