The Draper library isn't one of your old-school libraries housing tight, narrow rows of books and boring colorless architecture.
The Draper library is a stunning achievement of architectural beauty and pragmatic library layout design.
As one combs through the well-spaced book shelves finding that perfect read, a glance skyward rewards the peruser with massive circular lights of white and blue that resemble the ideal summer day. The lights hang down from the ultra-high ceiling, seemingly unconnected to anything except the fertile mind of the dreamer-reader whose life is not anchored but freed from all cares and concerns.
The library is ensconced right in the beautiful historic part of Draper and there is a senior citizens acitivity center on the same property as well as the Draper Chamber of Commerce.
The staff really places emphasis on themes. So each week near the entrance you can see a highlighted section on cooking, religion, teen fantasy etc. that has a variety of books to choose from within the topic chosen.
They also have a meeting room that people or groups can schedule out for privacy and there is no charge just a requested courtesy reservation for the individual(s) who need the space.
My other favorite aspect about the library is that it is right next to the Draper Park and has a vast array of sparkling Christmas lights during the holiday season and the park lights up so beautifully with the variety of colors.
One can check out a book and walk across to the park and relax and enjoy leisure of reading something worthy while enjoying the lovely park surrounding. Many geese fly overhead and the occasional whine of a small engine plane makes the appeal of the Draper library and its adjacent attractions an ideal choice for the intellectual and creatively driven person to enjoy a occasional respite from daily life.response / report this review -

Good place to work certainly, but I would prefer them to have a cafe inside of the place.

My favorite library. They are nice and helpful here. Besides all the things that can be checked out, there are so many great programs. My son spent the evening playing laser tag in the library tonight! The entire county library system is amazing.

One of the best libraries in the county! My son goes here daily to study after school and is able to get a ton done. They also have cool events in conjunction with the neighboring park (like bubble soccer, which was AWESOME!).

This library has been serving the Draper Community for over ten years. The staff are always willing to go the extra mile to help patrons. It has several comfortable areas to sit and read a book, and plenty of self-checkout stations to make library runs fast. Many excellent programs for children are put on each month, and its close proximity to the Draper Park makes it a great place to take the kids. Plus, for those with Pokemon Go, the library is home to a few Pokestops.
