If I can give this library 10 STARS, I would in a snap. I would like to say that the entire staff at Green Valley Ranch Library in Denver Colorado is amazing, kind with willing to help all guests. This modern library has a great selection of resources: wonderful books, many computers with large screens, headphones, comfortable & clean working areas that make you feel right at home. The copy/printing center offers access to the express computers for quick print activities and the assistance of the friendly staff. I truly commend the friendly and helpful staff for their great service to the community of all ages! The study rooms are large, clean and comfortable chairs with great lighting for private study and group conferences. The structure has tall ceilings and different seating areas that add a special touch to the environment to read, read, read....and learn! I look forward to my next visit to Denver, Colorado and especially Green Valley Ranch Library, a place where everyone is welcomed with a genuine friendly approach! Thank you all so very much for a wonderful experience at...
Read moreI was at the GVR branch yesterday afternoon to do some research/studying for my Masters Degree program as well as have my son and daughter work on their homework. To say the least I was extremely disappointed.
The library was very loud. Even in the "quite areas" there was young kids talking loud, using foul language, and being rude. I ended up saying something to three teenage girls whose every other word was the "F-Bomb" and they basically told me to "F* Off" A staff member finally had them move but they gave her a ton of lip.

I had extreme difficulty connecting to the WiFi due to too many users. When I did finally connect the bandwidth was so poor I could not get to my colleges website in a timely fashion. Might be something the IT department wants to look at upgrading.
The place had more of a Rec Center/Party vibe to it, not a sit down and read a good book or...
Read moreMy family and I love this library branch! The staff is very kind and helpful if you are looking for something. It is always clean and well kept, which is amazing with the amount of youth traffic. They welcome youth to have a safe enviroment yet hold them to their expectations and have security to deal with amy situations that may come up. I habe only seen one issue and all it was was a female teen getting too loud and antsy and she was asked to call home and leave. They have wonderful events through the year, eapically in the summer, that both middle schooler and elementary school aged kids enjoy and they even have events geared toward adults! They keep up their facebook page, the orginazation makes it so easy to find what you are looking for and their addition of the Lucky Day shelf is awesome! A trip their brightens our day and we always leave with a great stack of items for the whole family, usually a cookbook, movie, science fiction novel and...
