Been here a few times they have a great play area for your toddler separate from the library looking. So they can play and be noisy without disrupting others. Also book area there for them to look through and pick out. Computers setup for learning, Legos, train, kitchen play, puzzles and more.

The Portage District Library is modern and comfortable. The librarians are all very helpful. This library hosts many speakers throughout the year, including touring writers and local authors. It has a Book Expo in mid-December for local authors to read their works and sell books to the public. The Portage District Library also hosts creative writing groups and workshops to help people get feedback on their work from local authors. I highly recommend this library.

I love the selections at this library! They have it all so well organized — mysteries, mangas, westerns, you name it! Friendly librarians and quiet atmosphere.

Helpful employees. They dont always have the books I need, but are able to get them from other libraries. Great book sales, and recent DVD releases! Great library over all!

Moved to Portage about 8 months ago and our daughter just loves the library. To see her so excited even at the mention of going there is great. The toddler area is better then average, book selection is on par with what I would expect, movie selection is so-so, check-out process is up to tech standards, and as for cleanliness, I’d say they do a pretty good job seeing the amount of kids and foot traffic they see on a daily basis. Kudos on room to room /age group to age group separation!

A calm, relaxing, and well-run library with excellent staff! I’ve been coming here since I was a little kid and have always loved it. Despite the sometimes limited resources of a public library and the difficult times many libraries are facing, the Portage library continues to be a great community resource with a well-balanced selection of books and newer media such as DVDs.

The Portage Public Library is a wonderful place to find whatever it is that you are seeking. The library has a great selection of new release books and the most up to date reference books available. The staff at PPL is knowledgeable and helpful and the library building is one of the most beautiful in the US. I use this facility every week and appreciate it being available.

The library MUST have renovated their facility since the first reviewer went. I just moved to Portage in November 2008 and first went to the library about a month ago(February, 2009). It is a very nice, large facility with a ton of selections. They have everything from books, movies, music, computers with Internet access, and even loan out Wii, PS3, and XBox360 games! I have never seen a library have video games before! They have a coffee bar inside the library and allow you to bring in a coffee as long as it has a lid on it. The service is excellent – I went in a couple weeks ago to get information on opening a business and one of their staff helped me for probably 15 minutes or so, getting books for me, and even printed off two business plan examples. I will definitely continue to go to the Portage Library.
