Library

“This is one of the best and one of the most unusual libraries in the Dallas Public Library system. It's located south of White Rock Hills, just past I30 in a very nice middle to upper middle class neighborhood. Beautiful Everglade Park is just across the street, as is a DART bus stop. The library grounds are liberally planted with trees, both deciduous and evergreen. The building appears low to the ground, with a steep brown shingled roof and off-white stucco exterior. The landscaping is very pleasing to the eye and twin benches outside the entrance welcome you to sit for a spell. The interior is quite surprising: high vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, an appearance which brought to my mind a ski lodge. This is further reinforced by the upper section, closed except for meetings and activities, accessed by a steep stairway. Also, there is an actual fireplace in the Children's section! A librarian informed me that it is actually functional. In part because the building is sectioned off by arched dividers and walls, and partly because the steep roof causes the ceiling to drop down to 8' at the walls, the library has an intimate feel. Groupings of comfortable chairs with tables help accentuate that feeling. I'm very happy to report that the library has a really big selection of Adult Fiction and Nonfiction, as well as Children's and Spanish-language books. The other sections, including CDs, DVDs and PCs, are all more than adequately supplied. I think it's great that the library appears to have sacrificed nothing by having such a wonderfully large selection of books. Worth a trip, even if you don't live in the neighborhood!”
