Anne Arundel County (Md.) Public Library - North County Area Branch

This library is tricky to get to and out of - watch out for one-way turns and unexpected streets!

This library has a large, one-story, one-room building with a typical collection, with books shared and rotating between county libraries: nothing special, but lots to read. It also has a large events room that often plays host to community exhibits and events.

There are computer terminals, usually fairly busy and requiring a library card to log on (which means accessing the catalog can be an effort). There's a fairly nice study area near the periodicals which usually has tables available.

The for-sale book selection is pitiful; on good days there's a dozen or so tucked forlornly on an empty shelf.
