Reviews
"The Libarian with the beard and mustache at the countet communicates like he is stoned or something"
"I've been coming here every week for the past 7 months and it's always a great atmosphere. The staff is super friendly and helpful."
"-Once a male Librarian said “thank you kindly” A peaceful environment and great place to study. They have a couple of tables by the DVDs that I love to check out. I found a lot movies were released just a year or two ago (some anime went up to five seasons for anybody who likes to bing-watch) *Two thumbs up!"
"I honestly love this place. They go way above and beyond for their community & when new faces come in. I was new here and they showed me how everything works and where to go. Very peaceful library unless you get a day where a lot of kids come in & they start using bad language & eating everywhere. Other than that though, this place is always up to standards & I love spending my time here. Both the Male and female staff are super friendly & sweet."
"I really enjoy being at this library...very child friendly and comfy.....if you want total quiet then you'd probably have to go to a cemetary to study, because I believe all libraries in Los Angeles county have educational children sections with toys and books,....or just take some ear plugs. Staff is very friendly and helpful."
