Belmar Library - Jefferson County Public Library — Attraction in Lakewood

I commend the library employees and patrons for their exemplary show of fortitude and restraint, especially Dave, in the face of ignorance when they were invaded by a parasitic species in the form of frauditors. A word of advice for those screaming about no expectation of privacy in public and you are always recorded, you should look up the words implied consent. When you enter a business to receive services, you are acknowledging that to enter and receive those services, you will be recorded for security purposes. If you do not want to be recorded, you are free to leave. A slug with a camera walking around to make money on YouTube is not the same thing. The dung beetle with the iPhone on a gimble shoved in your face because they THINK they can is not the same thing. Period. End of story. You want to talk about what it means to be an American? THAT is not it. Freedom does not mean freedom from accountability. Dave deserves a raise and the patron with the Mohawk deserves a huge thanks for standing up for his fellow patrons. BTW anyone in one of these videos on SweeT T AudiTs, NastyNathanial or Denver Metro Audits, or any of the other parasites, you can request YouTube to remove the video for privacy and harassment if they captured your face without consent. As much as they want to pretend this is about the first amendment, this is all about the money. Playing copyrighted music or engaging in conversation about topics YouTube will demonitize will protect you in the future. Or at least keep them from getting paid for it. Great job...

This is a truly wonderful library and is genuinely my favorite one in all of Denver. Everyone there is so kind and helpful, you can really feel the effort the employees have put in to make this place a safe haven for EVERYONE in the community. The selection is great, there's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating and there is always interesting community activities. It is a centrally located library with tons of easily walkable restaurants, shops and even some bars! It's right next to the park & heritage center which I always recommend checking out!

My only complaint is to say how disappointed I am in some people going to this library and leaving negative reviews. I will be frank, there ARE homeless people. You will see them walking around both outside and inside, some people do have their carts/tents stored outside and you can see them. HOWEVER these are people who are experiencing homelessness and are just trying to relax in a safe sheltered area. The people trying to paint this library as some urine covered place where people fight is frankly disturbing. Please have empathy for those who are living different lives than you are who are also just trying to enjoy...

The library may be wonderful, but those who work there are possibly the worst I have observed. They don't respect your rights and will lie to you.

I can't blame the patrons for their naivete because I can't expect any more from such smooth-brained, low-brow specimens. They get violent when being observed, which tells me where they stand on the evolution totem pole. Dave, obviously aware of their inability to think for themselves, capitalized by misinforming the patrons as to the observers' intentions. He intentionally used inflammatory remarks in the hopes he would further upset the mongrels. My only positive thought about Dave is that he's made plenty of revolutions around the sun, and hopefully has very few left in him. His lack of proper communication mixed with his less than subtle passive aggression is absolutely something this world could do without.

My hope is that further evolution of the species will result in a more positive experience for all...
