I guess libraries have changed in the last few years or something. My only positive about the place is that it looks pretty neat and it's fairly clean. Do NOT come here to study unless you don't mind the noise. I stay here for hours every week and have to blast my noise cancelling headphones with music because more often than not, there are children crying/shouting/screaming. The people in the cubicle areas have, for the most part been quiet and i'm assuming they're also studying. But of course the ceilings are tall and shouting from one side of the library seeps into the quieter side. It honestly sounds more like playground than your traditional "library". Every library I've been to prior, (at least 10) has been quiet or has designated quiet areas for study that are, you know, actually quiet. Unfortunately, this is the most convenient library closest to me. I would gladly have booked the "study rooms" or separate rooms except they don't have individual ceilings so you hear just as much as not being in those rooms. Not really sure what the point of those are aside from talking to whoever else you book it with and having more space.

This is the second time we’ve popped into this branch. I go with my 4 and 6 y/o and their children’s area is amazing. They also put if always from the adult seating so the children can actually play without you having to constantly tell them to quiet down.

I use this place as it’s about the only option I have around me. It’s quite noisy everyday but it’s something i’ve come to realise is a norm as it’s also like a community centre. The issue is that noise still filters into the “quiet spaces”

  • Charles Royal

It's more like a daycare/study area than a library. LOTS of children around, which isn't a bad thing, they were relatively quiet, but they have a very small selection of books and no real organization (general fiction, general nonfiction).

  • Julietta Sorensen

Such a welcoming public space. Lively without being too distracting, friendly without being in your face. Diverse, safe, and inclusive. Lots of natural light, a variety of seating options, they even have meeting rooms you can book! It's an

Country Hills Library is just close to the North Pointe terminal. It has lots of resources and it's free to use but you need to register. Registration is free and a library card will be given. You are expected to come with the card at all

I enjoy being in this library. It's always busy, especially in the afternoon and evening. People come here to socialize, participate in various events, and, of course, read books. I like that they have meeting/studying rooms where you can
