Reviews
"A great local library to read or do some work"
"Went there today to return some books and go to the booksale. Wow. Phenomenal doesn't even begin to describe the variety of books available, at cheap rates (2$ for softcover/$3 for hardcover)."
"This place is trash, it’s not the same anymore. The babysitters play their music and block up the whole place. It always smells like food and they eat all the time. The workers don’t bother reprimanding them, but they will tell everyone else not to eat. This is a babysitter hangout spot, avoid at all costs. It gets insanely loud with unsupervised children in the afternoon, so good luck getting your work done here. I just moved back to the city so I hope other libraries aren’t like this."
"I am so thrilled that this library has classical sheet music (scores for piano especially) and some are in surprisingly good condition, almost never used. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Very pleasant experience here compared to other branches."
"New York Public Library St. Agnes branch is a great local library branch in the Upper West Side of Manhattan. It has two main floors and is usually appropriately quiet. Some school children use library after school and they're good selections for kids books as well as adults."
