Love this library! It’s very big ! Has lots of computers open to public use. Also offers a quiet computer lab if you need a more quiet work space to use a computer. Lots of comfortable furniture to relax in, read a book or a magazine or just pick up the daily newspaper. The librarians are all super helpful in all the requests and questions I’ve ever had. Whether it be finding a particular book or helping with a hold request or anything else they are quick and efficient to help! It’s a great location in WSP as well as it’s located right off Robert Street so it’s close for anyone living near Robert Street to walk to. They have a large selection of non fiction , fiction , large print , a nice size teen section and children’s section. Also they have a media section which is quite large too with dvds, cds, and other various media’s. I highly recommend...

I was so impressed but part of me was like, did I put my fishing license in the new book I had just picked up and forgot that I did that? Then, just a couple of days ago, I picked up a different book I had on hold and what's in it? A spider-man playing card I had been using as a bookmark! These people are incredible and all other libraries are envious of...
