This is the worst library layout I have ever seen!! It’s dark, cramped. There are no independent study desks, only 1 big table where everybody sits like they’re having lunch. I understand this branch is tiny, but I wish Vancouver would upgrade. This place needs it!

Tiny library and there's like a half dozen or more staff...AND THEY NEVER SHUT UP. Most annoying bunch of women ever always laughing and yapping at the top their lungs. More annoying than all the mental homeless people who come here put together.

The branch manager attempted to lecture me on the bylaws of your dog barking “outside” of the library. Is it illegal for your dog to bark on the street? As to is it illegal if a baby cries or if people yell outside of the library? I

Good selection of DVDs, friendly staff, accommodating hours, and central location . Have your favourite movie and TV show DVDs sent here by interlibrary delivery. Why not reserve a computer to avoid any lineups? Highly recommended!

Very nice and pleasant place. Well layed out with plenty of private places to study or read. I really appreciate the layout and the staff are very helpful. I have nothing negative to say about Vancouver Public Library.

  • L S

I like the books, staff, and tables to read. There a lot of nice staff in VPL. Also there is games and movies. I really love when it is most quiet. Sometimes staff just yaps a lot. But I still like it.

  • Francisco Tamaki

I can remember almost 40 years ago, proudly telling the librarian behind the same desk that's still there today that I can read all by myself.

  • Rafi Meher

Small library with limited collections. However, the staff is friendly and it is on a busy area of Granville Street so it is easily accessible.

  • Kelvin Fong

Everyone is friendly here. I love the little ticket shop in the kids area. It’s a small branch so washrooms can be occupied most of the time.

  • L. M.

The Marpole branch is my local library and I love it. They are very civic-minded and a wonderful asset to our community. Small but special.

  • Abishek Narayan

Although the library is good and the staff is really helpful. Why I give them a 1-star is because someone attempted to hack the email id I
