Uniondale Public Library

It feels so weird being here as an adult.
I grew up in this library. But when it was more of just a hangout spot after Junior High & High school. Soooooo many memories ran through my head the moment I walked in.
I had to do just that, picture it my head! Because they redesigned the entire library. It looks nothing like the one I grew up in. But that’s definitely a good thing!
It’s a beautiful upgrade. More modern and filled with more then just shelves of books and old school computers.
I’m thrilled that they allowed me to get a library card, being I live in the next town over. So my son can now grow up in the very same, yet so different library that I did.
Still a huge variety of books with more technology. More computer stations. Visual and electronic books to read to the kids. And even an iPad station, with 4 iPads loaded with games. I told my son we have to read at least 3 books before he can go there.
They have a calendar filled with daily programs. They even added a «Teen Space» which is great for programs to keep the teens from just coming to make noise.
The only thing that hasn’t changed is the messy bathrooms. Which u need to have a key to open first. Yet still no one is monitoring the cleanliness of it. They slapped a «no smoking» sign on the wall. Which I take was well needed.
All in all I’m glad to be here with my son and look forward to coming back for some of the programs.

Great library, plenty of parking, friendly staff and excellent programs for kids. Library has a brand new teen space and a really nice new café area!

It’s a small library but it’s nice and in a really nice spot too, left side for older right side for kids. Also they have a lot going on as far as programs for people of all ages if you wanna learn a language etc. not to mention kid programs they run from time to time. Its quiet and the staff is nice aswell. One thing it needs though is an upgrade, it’s beginning to get old should be remodeled.

This is another library I worked for as a circulation clerk, before I left them for the job I have now. This is a small library, but it’s still very amazing. It’s cute and has everything the local neighborhood and community need. The staff I worked with was very nice here.
