Provided by YP.comThis library is okay, but that leaves a lot to be desired. It has too few books be able to check a specific one out without getting on a list to await the book being returned. The one good thing about the library is that is is regional and has branches over a wide area of Northeast Arkansas. If you want a specific book and you're in Weiner, it most often can be obtained within a day or two from one of the other branch libraries. But that neans driving a fairly good number of miles before to retrive it when it arrives at Weiner. On the whole, the library is okay.
