Roselle Public Library

I’ve spent some of my childhood here, and then some other time trying to care about my homework in high school (didn’t work, library won’t change that). Nice little library, and I’ve been in a few. Sure, it could be a bit bigger, could be a bit more trafficked as well, and get more funding. This is Roselle though, and not a whole lot of people need books with that internet thing nowadays.
Got a decent library vibe. Also, has that police station vibe, because the police station is literally 20 feet away.
Maybe if they put a café in here they could get more people to hang out. Whoops, too late, there’s already a Starbucks up the road.

Great selection. Wonderful that the kids section is upstairs. They have a wide variety of activities for children all the way to adults.

Need a large selection of comics. The library hasn’t changed in over 20+ years.

Small quit library that opens at 9 30 am instead of the usual 9 am. There are pleny of seating options and the place is pretty much an average library. The building and old rare Dupage County neighborhood is a rare plus.

I’ve been coming to this library since 1998 and I’ve loved it ever since. The kids section on the second floor is so cute, there are computers, a sitting area, and tons of books. There is a DVD/​VHS section as well as a game section too. On the main floor there are young adult and adult books against the wall as well as computers scattered throughout the floor. I love the services offered by this library, especially the
service which is free for all library patrons which can be accessed at home too! Great place to pass the time and great place to study as well.

«Man, you’re quick to get a library card!» says one of the employees as I tell her that I’ve been here three times since I moved to Roselle a week-​ish ago. Yep. I FREAKIN’ LOVE LIBRARIES! It keeps me from having to spend money on book/​DVD/​music entertainment and cluttering up my shelves with things I’ll only use once or twice. Plus, the smell of books within a beautiful brick building really does something for me (man, if only my husband and I could have a romp in the stacks).
So, a library that gives you a free book when you sign up for a card? SWEET! When I signed up for a card a few days after I moved here, I received a copy of «Rocket Boys» (the book that inspired ‘October Sky’) along with a brochure highlighting all the library events in October (and man, there’s a ton of them!). This may be the first library where I’ve actually paid attention to the free events they offer. And they gave me a book I’d actually be interested in reading at some point. Major props for that.
Roselle’s library is a bit on the small side, with a smaller selection than I’m used to, but at least they have the basics — books, DVDs, CDs, magazines, whatnot — and a nice youth section upstairs. All the people that work here are very personable and made me feel right at home. This is the perfect library for a sweet little town.
