Buena Vista Branch Library Reviews

From: Beth Rosenblum | submitted: Dec 04, 2009
Buena Vista Library is a wonderful, safe and very community oriented library. Nestled between the Buena Vista Middle School and the Las Palmas Ranch neighborhood, the library staff has the opportunity to get to know their patrons well and visa versa. I am positive that I am not alone in saying how grateful I am, as a Mom and as an avid reader to have this warm and friendly service available in our neighborhood!
