Banks Public Library

Nice library and friendly staff in a cool picturesque town.

The staff are so friendly, story times are well done and the ability to put any book from the county on hold is awesome!

Great little community library. The children’s section is quite broad which allows kids with different tastes in books to enjoy the selection. If a child becomes interested in a particular topic, author, or genre, the library staff is very encouraging with suggestions and accessing more books through the online ordering system. The annual summer reading program was a major success for my son- when he was younger, he was read to; as he developed his reading skills, the program was adaptable to encourage him to read his own leveled books while also recognizing that some of his favorite books would still need to be read to him. He loved getting a free book at the end of the program. They try to keep the adult “new” book section fresh with regular new additions. Interesting and eclectic collection of magazines with a unique breadth of rural-interest through urban-related titles. But best of all? I love the staff❤️. Super nice, remember my name and my son’s. Very friendly and helpful.

A small library in a small town but with big heart and big service. Pre-pandemic, they did a lot of community educational events. During this pandemic, they continue to offer drive-by checkouts. For a rural community, we’re really fortunate to have this.
