This library has been ok most of the time. Except today. Children were very noisy. Asked librarian “Pattty” about it. Did not ask the child to stop noises or observe any respect. Furthermore, she said the library was for the children to come and make their noises. Ie: play music, tap on the furniture or walk, stump on the floors, etc

  • Donny Posner

It’s an average public library. Has kids section separate from adults. All different people- kids, mothers, fathers, school students, some homeless. Clean bathrooms & library. I prefer to download with OverDrive but check out books once in awhile. Helpful staff.

I am sitting in this library to do some homework done, the quiet area is located next to the entrance, where people are coming to checking and check out the books and they are talking !!!!!! And staff are talking to each other loudy.

A jacket maybe required sometimes depending on how long you stay because the air condition is so cold but I wouldnt complain at all.It sooths me of the hot outdoors of the valley... A good place to build or relax your mind.

  • Frank Leon

Love this library, always very quiet. A few years back this was not the case but they really revamped their adherence to procedure. Plus, I love their book giveaways...have collected quite a few of them and very good ones.

  • C.R. Goldman

I do not believe all of these good reviews are real. There are more homeless than there are patrons, the library smells, and the librarian never smiled when I asked her a question.

  • Nuria Orellana

So good they know where everything is at and they have homework help even people that read to your little ones meanwhile you're studing. It's the best.

  • Nathaniel Newcomer

Nice place to study and get some work done. Recommend it very much. I try to make it a habit for some of my routine work during the day.

  • Ernie Noblejas

This is a ghetto library. A lot of homeless outside, and the black female staff ignore me. I will never come back to this place.

It is a nice library with kids section. They have also a 15 minute PC station for adults without card library and a printer.
