Arizona Library Tour: Prescott


There are some truly wonderful libraries in Arizona. As I drove through over the holidays I decided to make a few stops to take pictures. The first library on my Arizona Library tour was Prescott Public Library. 

The sidewalks outside the library have an excellent timeline theme and then patrons get to meet "The Library Lizard" - a very cool statue lounging with some books.

 

Inside there was an area dedicated to the books and biographies of local writers and displays by some local artists. 


My very favorite part about this library was the children's section. An area was specially designed for the 0-5 crowd with padded "boulders" for kiddos to climb or sit on. For caregivers there is a comfy rocking chair in this area. For the older children there are the coolest benches EVER made out of giant books. I want one real bad. 


 

Whether in Prescott to see the courthouse, whiskey row, or some great art, the library should also be on the list for book lovers. Even if it is just to see the Library Lizard or the greatest book benches around.
