Neenah Public Library

This library is gorgeous and I really appreciate the ability to reserve a meeting room! I reserved a room to work remotely from this afternoon and it was spacious, quiet, had outlets, and fast wifi. Also, I love the Friends of the library shelves - there's always such a nice selection of items to purchase to support the library!

This is what every public library should aspire to be. The Neenah Public Library is phenomenal, especially for a city of its size. When I was a teen, every two weeks I walked 3 miles each way to come here and check out a backpack stuffed full of books on various subjects. Thanks to the librarians here (in the earlier days of the internet 20 years ago), I learned that as a new Wisconsin resident, there were means through which I could homeschool myself without having to give online schools money I didn't have. It is no exaggeration to say that the Neenah Public Library is how I managed to graduate high school despite my parents refusing to enroll me in public school, thereafter graduating from college and winding up where I am today. For that, 5 stars isn't enough. The Neenah Public Libra

Considering the Appleton Public Library is in the process of a remodel, the Neenah Public Library blows it out of the water. It’s a really nice environment and has some good views of the lake. The staff was really fun to talk to. They also sold me a LOTR box set for $5. Very cool very awesome.

They have so much more than books! The programs are interesting and full of surprises. The view is gorgeous anytime of year. The staff is helpful and friendly. The pictures are a wall of baking pans and also inside The Shaddock Room for a musical performance.

I didn't catch her name but the lady at the desk upstairs today on the side facing toward the computers (there were two ladies at the big circle desk, one was facing the other direction) was super helpful. She let me use a Chromebook even without a library card and just held onto my ID while I used it quick. Then she extended my computer time by more than enough time for me to get everything done and was very polite the whole time and she even let me hang onto the papers I printed without paying until I left. Five stars
