North County Branch Library — Attraction in Clinton

I really like this library. The workers are friendly and it has the most space out of all the public libraries in my area. I like to come here to study since the wifi is free to access and it has some nice private desks in the back of the 2nd floor, which usually helps me focus away from distractions. My only issue is what some visitors do in that back space. On a few occasions I have encountered people talking at full volume during an online meeting, which can be disruptive but usually only goes on for a short time. My biggest recurring problem, though, is with a certain individual that likes to bring full meals to eat at the desks, which often stinks up the area and makes it difficult to focus due to their loud open-mouth chewing. There was one occasion where they ate a long meal, left for about 30-45 minutes, and then returned with another meal. Unfortunately ear buds don't help with the noise so you'll need noise cancelling headphones if you hope to be able to focus. I'm personally not a stickler for eating in libraries as long as you clean up after yourself and it doesn't affect anyone else, but this has been a constant struggle since it's extremely disruptive and defeats the purpose...

There is plenty of parking & even outdoor seating for pleasant days of outside fun. It looked to have numerous games & activities for family & the once-&-while puzzle enthusiast 🧩. I mean overall, you couldn't really go wrong at...

Computers available for public use as well. Fast Wi-Fi. Spacious and not very crowded when visiting on Friday. Plenty of selection of books, magazines, and...
