I feel bad leaving this kind of review for a library but I don’t want other people to have the same experience. I knew to the area and I don’t understand how the parking works. It’s a Saturday and the parking is filled all over the street and I’m not sure if I could park in the school or in the fire station. I finally found parking and came in.

The library had a few people moving or sitting about. I picked and sat at a table in the middle and enjoyed the calm and quiet atmosphere. It was just what I needed for two hours of uninterrupted writing. Thank you Lemon Grove Library for creating a perfect...
Read moreWHAT HAPPENED TO THIS LIBRARY!!! Where are all the books, there are empty shelves everywhere. I visited the other day and the shorter grey haired woman was very rude. Needless to say the staff would do well to take customer service seriously, I used to frequent this library pre-pandemic and miss the engaging team that welcomed the public as well as the wide selection that was offered. The conditions of the staff and diminishing selection have left me with no choice but to find...
