what an experience! the kids floor has a super cute play / reading area, tons of books , dvds. we walked in pretty late and didn’t realize the kids area had already been closed (they close at 6 ). the employees , helen, ana and another gentleman. i forgot to jot down his name. they were super kind and allowed us to grab what we needed. my son was searching for a specific book and they were so happy to assist us in finding it. unfortunately we couldn’t locate it but our trip ended with opening library cards for both my son and i. helen and ana shared some really cool benefits of having a library card for this location which you can use at a few others( not sure off the top of my head). you can also reserve passes once a month. the zoo included!!! which sign me all the way for saving coins. overall this was such a great library trip and super cool liberians. we will absolutely be visiting again. thank you for such a sweet and...

I will Never stop feeling that I matter and if any Cambridge employee doesnt like it they are in the wrong business. Rainbows are...
