Nice sized library with pleasant staff. The hours posted are not correct. I stopped by Monday around 5:15pm (When I looked up the hours, it said it closed at 8pm) and it was closed. I returned on Wednesday during my lunch break to pick up a Malcom X autobiography I had placed on hold. Checkout was a breeze at the self checkout counter, with the option to print out a receipt with the due date printed.

I checked Google and it says the library opens at 9am. I went to return books at 9:50am and the library was closed. For some unknown reason they were supposedly not opening until 10am today. There were many people from the public waiting outside. Women and fathers with their kids turned around and left. What a travesty. It is a great library inside. But it seems like the hours of operation are spotty.

I must commend the staff there, who have always been friendly and approachable the times that I've been there. They are very patient, and courteous, even when dealing with visitors who are challenged mentally or physically. I encountered a gentleman, Tim, who was very kind and even escorted me to the shelves to point out a section (autobiographies) that I was looking for.The range of services at the library is amazing. They offer:-Storytimes(weekly) for the kiddies or the whole family-Materials such as CDs, DVDs, newspapers, mags, etc. They even allow you to check out musical instruments, board games, and video games!!-Computers, Wi-Fi, and scanning. All these services are free, but if you want to print out documents, etc., color printing is 50c a page while B&W printing is 10c a page.-Auto Renewal !! All library items check out for 21 days but the library auto renews checked out items 3 days before the due date, and your loan is extended 21 days. I believe auto renewal is done 3 times on all loans, before you have to return the item(s). If auto renewal is unsuccessful, due to a prior hold, for example, on your loan, the item will retain the original due date.Honorable mention: The library Diane impose late charges on materials. If items are not returned within 14 days of due date, borrowing privileges will be suspended. If items are more than 14 days overdue, customers will be charged for the cost of the item.Thank you so much, Fairfield Civic Center Library! You guys are on the right track.

The parking lot has coverage due to the solar-powered panels. Short walk from the the parking area.There is a security officer straight ahead after you walk in. To your right as you pass through the sliding doors, there is a small bookstore,restrooms, and the children's library area with rooms for studying.As you look left, it is the adult side, classroom further back, immediate left is where you pick up your holds to check out, to your right is the help desk, and there are computers available to use.The library staff are friendly and helpful.There are excellent links available on the Solano Library site for their members. You can place hold on books, instruments, games, and movies.Excellent library.Enjoy!

Great! Nice, clean and quiet place to go and chill read a book, do research, homework. A/C. They had different art/crafts stations for kids to enjoy. They have the duck pond right outside their back door to go for a walk or just sit and relax. We had an amazing time and plan on going more often.

I had a wonderful experience! The staff are super sweet and helpful. I took my 3 and 5 year old to get a library card for the first time. They got a certificate and a goodie bag. My kids are excited to go back!By the way they have an awesome selection of books.

I'm a book worm so the library is the perfect place for me. I love the ease of being able to reserve books for pick up and the automated book renewal. I only have to go to the library now if I need to recheck a book after my curtesy renewals or to pick up a reserved book. The librarians are pretty friendly. There is a guard on duty I guess to keep the people who may mill around. Love thé hours and days of operation also

This library is great! I love how big and beautiful it is. It has tons of books and there's a great atmosphere. I love how welcoming the employees make it feel. There's a bathroom, you can get free wifi for your device, and they even highlighted books for women's history month. This is a great library.

I liked the Library a lot but it could use a few more comfortable bench seats w/tables that swing to the side.
