User Reviews for Columbus Metropolitan Library

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

I don't know why anyone would pay to rent movies with a great library system like Columbus Public. Now if only all those who use the system could afford to support it....

Pros: cheap parking, huge AV section

Cons: waiting lists

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

The Grant Library surpasses any that I've seen in the entire nation ( I haven't been lucky enough to visit the one in New York) . I've been to Los Angeles and was extremely disappointed. I thought that if I were to conduct research, that would had been the place( but it wasn't), oh well.

Pros: On the busline, excellant selections, nice employees

Cons: none, noisy kids, none

I love the Columbus Metropolitian Library. The building is beautifully designed, and the location at the edge of Old Deaf School Park is lovely. The interior contains a great collection of books, videos, and dvds, as well as excellent internet access. Parking rates are extremely inexpensive for downtown Columbus.

Best thing the library offers is the summer reading program kick-off. It gives the kids something to look forward to over the summer and helps them keep up with school. The incentives are great. The band and food are even greater.

Pros: free, educational, motivational

Cons: missing books

There are branches everywhere and everything can be reserved online for pick-up close to you. The staff is great, too!
