Mars Area Public Library

I take my Grandchildren to the Mars Library. Today they had a very nice craft venue for the kids. The children area is nice as they have alot of books, games for the kids to play and children friendly computers. We enjoy visiting the Mars Library.

We went to their used book sale. Fantastic! We walked away with a boatload of trading materials.

Awesome to be able to hold a book again. Thank you mars library , the place looks good

Mars Area Public Library is small, but extremely kid centric. Yes, it can get loud with children in the library, but gone are the days of the stereotypical library where the librarian "shush's" people for speaking in a library. Libraries are in the process of reinventing themselves and I believe Mars Area Public LIbrary is doing a great job such a transformation. Moving from a repository of printed material to a hands on educational center is difficult, but Mars is moving steadily and rapidly in that direction. Hopefully the people this library serves will continue to support the it and recognize its current achievements and amazing potential.

Small but mighty. They're plugged into the Butler County system, so if you place a hold on-line for a book that's available anywhere in the system, it'll be ready for you to pick up (and return) at the Mars Library within a day or two. Friendly knowledgeable librarians. Nice meeting room in the back. Worth supporting!
