“I attended Zumba and I feel that it is important for the Library to bring people together, inspire people to make a positive change in their life and give them the opportunity to experience new things; things they may not necessarily have the means to pay for themselves. The class was wonderful and I will be back anytime it is held again.”
~Donna Ginn – Greene County Public Library “The library offers a chance to meet with people in the community. To learn a new skill and explore new opportunities that normally we would not have access to.”
~Derek Burress-Greene County Commissioner – Greene County Public Library
“The craft classes, Device Advice, and the bookmobile have been so wonderful for our seniors. Partnering with the Kinston Library has offered our seniors some new and fun things to participate in each month! Charlene puts a smile on all the seniors' faces when she is here for crafts and Amber is always such a ray of sunshine when she is here with the bookmobile. We all look forward to these visits from the library.”

“The library is my connection to the internet. I am 63 years old and have a little knowledge of computers, and I commend the staff here at the Library for the way that they help me and others over and over and over with a professional and helpful demeanor. I have to say that Libraries have changed dramatically in the last 20+ years, but the staff are as patient and helpful as ever.”
~Faylene Faison – Kinston-Lenoir County Public Library

“The ESL program has helped give me the confidence to speak English more. I have learned new grammar and words. I enjoy the laid back feeling of the sessions.”

“This library is like the heart of the community that is far-reaching into surrounding counties. It has given me a purpose to get out of my home and learn things I didn't realize existed in ENC. It has made me realize, "you are never too old" to learn.”
~ Barbara Sykes – Pink Hill Public Library “Tutoring sessions offered have been a big help and relief for me. It has helped my son out tremendously. My son has shown progress in his reading. Thank you Rosina for your time and patience during tutoring.”
