Copper Queen Library

The library. I believe one of the most under utilized resources. This library is exceptional. I had many questions and I got many answers. I needed a place to study. It’s quiet. I found a place that was nice and quiet to study. It’s atmosphere and staff; beautiful Anyone would benefit from stopping by here to look, and if you’re a local resident get a card and utilize this great resource

Travelling through town and stopped in to do an Adventure Lab (geocaching's cousin) and check out the kid's area with our 2 year old. SUPER cool building filled with the coolest stuff and the nicest librarian. She even gave us a free book for completing 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten. Thanks so much!

I'm writing this review because I live in bisbee, had to look them up to see their hours, and was surprised how few reviews they had for being AMERICA'S BEST SMALL TOWN LIBRARY!

This place really is great, and it's staffed by some of the most genuinely curious, interested, and knowledgeable librarians around. Plus, they have tool rentals, event space,meeting rooms, and it's just beautiful. To me, it's the quintessential green and gold bankers lamp personified (by the staff, that is!).

Fun for tourists and locals alike. Wow, there is such thing!

Go visit. It's great. Support them however you can.

I am torn. This library has to be the coolest library in AZ with the best selection in Cochise County. That being said, the day I visited, the librarian must have been having an off day. I had friends visiting so I figured we would go to the library to ask if there were any museum passes I can check out. The librarian was very confused, and somewhat snarkily said “This… this is a library”. A little taken back, I walked away for a few minutes. I found on the Cochise County Library website all the information about cultural passes. I went back to the circulation desk and asked again about cultural passes. The librarian then said “those are for Cochise County residents only”. When I said I am a resident, I was then asked what is my home library, which is Sunizona. The librarian then said that she believes only Bisbee library card holders can check out cultural passes. After some small back-and-forth I finally got a cultural pass to a museum. In the end, my friends and I laugh about the situation and have a new inside joke. “This…. this is a library”. The librarian must just have been having a bad day.

Great library! Big and rich with history! It is a must to see, as it is the oldest library in the state of AZ. History inside, but very updated with a teen area and kids corner.
