  Beautiful library with excellent public use desktop and laptop computers; color and black white printers. Reference librarians are very professional. Extensive cookbook selection. Also great selection of places to eat along main street Bay Shore.

  Most libraries have pretty much in common as content goes but this library stands out to me cause the way it's laid out and how comfortable you while you're here.

  This library is beautiful and has a lot of different study areas. There's a lobby where you can eat and buy snacks/drinks. There are private study rooms, larger quiet areas, and a small conference room. The library has an extensive children's section and offers a lot of programs, especially during the summer. It's open 9:30am-9pm M-Thursday, with restricted hours for the weekend.

  As a kindergarten teacher, I use mostly the children's section. Personnel there is very welcoming and helpful. Regarding the front desk, I have had experiences that vary from great to unpleasant. Could it be some kind of discrimination? I am not sure. I rather want to believe that it is more a personality issue. Certain people are not equipped to deal with others in a cordial manner. In terms of the great children's programs, I wish I could comment, but no matter how early I try to enroll my child they are always 'already booked'. I am not sure if some people has preference or I am just very unlucky that way.

  I LOVE! this library! Because of my profession, I have the need to visit libraries all over NYS and believe me! when I tell you that, this one, is one of the best experience! Staff is always cordial, professional, knowledgeable and eager to help! Mostly, Ideal with the second floor staff and the service they provide is almost impeccable! Every single time I need their service, they are prompt to help with smile on their faces. I observe this behavior when they take care of other patron as well. Library is peaceful and resourceful!
