Upper Skagit Library — Attraction in Concrete

This is small town library, so the library itself is small. However, don't let the size of the building fool you. This little library is pretty packed. Aside from loads if books for all ages, they also have an excellent selection of Blueray and DVD movies for checkout. If there is a book you want to check out and it's not on the shelf (or checked out), they can get it from one of the other libraries in the valley. There is free WiFi access 24/7. To use it after hours, you just sit in the parking lot and you have access. The library also has computers for patron use.

They encourage teamwork and social skills. If something doesn't work out, we get to talk about it without any sort of harsh judgement. It really feels like one big family there.

Plus, if you have overdue books, they're super sweet about it. I love these...

This library is welcoming to all! Every staff member is incredibly friendly. They have a teens section that is cozy and fun.

They have fun weekly/monthly activities for all ages and overall such great supporters of the community alongside being such an asset themselves. This is somewhere I look forward to go and feel like I always have a place. They're a great resource hub for multiple things. There is also a section for atypical items (besides books). If you don't know where to go - start...
