Reviews
Friendly receptionist who helped us quickly register and borrow the books we wanted, felt like members right away, no hassle, and all the information we needed without question. Our little one started crying, I thought she would come over to say something, instead she brought out toys which helped.
The employees were very rude. I said I'm new here. When he learned that I came from Turkey, his behavior changed. They asked each other, “Do you know Turkish?” They asked questions like these and laughed. They told me to bring someone who speaks both Turkish and English. I've been here for a month and everyone understands what I'm saying except these people. I think I experienced some form of racism.
Good library. Free Wi-Fi. Toilet is available downstairs. Some tables have power sockets.
Always a nice place to study time to time, peaceful and there is always a study space available including plugs
A quiet place to work. Plenty of desks, but only some all upstairs have power sockets. WiFi is reliable with ~10Mb/s download, using the "eduroam" network. A little dated inside. Haven't tried the book selection. Strict no food or drink policy.
If you need a place for quiet cowork without feeling pressure from cafes or expensive coworkings, this is the place for you! And free. Loved it, everything I needed. Plus a great selection of books and everything. Want to come back here every time
I found some travel books there. It’s not bad.
Pleasant space, peaceful, friendly staff, and good selection of books.
I got a great service today by phone and in person which is very rare. I like this library but I don't approve of their charges with fines, audio books and dvds which is very expensive compare to libraries in other boroughs. Those in charge do not consider the effects this charges have on the community. Most people are recovering from the lockdown stress, struggles and in their finances. I believe that audio books should be free just like a book and charges suspended until next year 2022 and brought down in price too for the benefit of everyone. This will encourage more people to visit and use the libraries.
I felt like the librarian was incredibly sceptical when I said I wanted to join, but when she saw me come back and complete the registration process she seemed pleased. Since then she’s been so warm and friendly. I wanted a book ordered and it was done straight away and I didn’t have to wait long. Smells a bit strange in there is my only criticism, but it’s not a big deal.
