Yorkville Public Library — Attraction in Bristol Township

We really enjoyed story time! Covid has sucked the fun out of everything so theres no toys or anything like that anymore. But it's still a great library, as far as childrens books, which is our biggest concern since we have a printer and computer at home. I haven't needed any other services so I can't comment on those. The librarians are wonderful! So kind and helpful and enjoyable. We got library cards and checked out books and it was a great experience. Also the building looks new and is beautiful. They have a great selection of books considering it's such a small community. The childrens books are the entire first floor! Awesome! Plus, they are really making the most out of the situation with Covid, which is more than we can say for many of the other communities that I guess just expect people to stay in their homes for the rest of the lives. I'm very grateful to have somewhere to take my kids to interact with the world...

This is a wonderful library and the ONLY one in the area that has actual QUIET areas and study rooms with no cell phone or computer users.

That said....you may sign in for one of the rooms for 3 hours...then another hour if needed. I was studying for my boards and yes, I was in a room for well over 3 hours when a library lady knocked. Even though she checked and advised me NO ONE else needed or wanted the room, or had indicated an interest in the room and even though I clearly said I would pack up the moment someone even looked in the direction of the room I was using, ...I was still given a hard time about "the rules."

Makes no sense to have an empty study room when a taxpayer needs it. By the way, I am in my 40's and it was shocking to me that this was even...

I am so sorry to read about Laura's negative experience with this library. I live in Sandwich, and even though the town has built a new library, Yorkville library is where we go.

I won't go into detail about the Sandwich library only that it is ruled by the "can't do" and a slew of other not available, no no and no.

The Yorkville library is such a well built and organized library. The people that work there are the most helpful and friendly people. I love the quiet rooms. The room with the Kennedy rockers is fantastic. I take my three year old granddaughter there often. So grateful for the opportunity to show her quiet is the decorum/respect...
