Reviews
"My son and I love this place and the staff. Everyone is helpful and respectful, the place is clean and it’s fantastic to get some time to read or study."
"Nothing really unique about this library... Its not as good as Queens Public Library in Jamaica Queens. This Library is alot smaller in comparison and it closes at 6:00pm and not open on Sundays unlike Queens Public Library. I will give the library this. If your looking for a quiet place to study, then this is the place for you"
"Please explain to me why as restrictions are lifting and public places opening back up, is the public library telling me they they are only open for book drop off and pick up, while I went there last year when Covid was terribly effecting NY without a problem. They're employees as well as security guard who wasn't there last year are in there getting paid to talk and laugh as they were when I arrived. Some pure bull! If I can't go in to read a book or use the computer them what really do we need you in our community for!? Make is make sense NYPL. Your "expansions" are limiting community use to the point where we can't even get in. If that's the case then open a window with a single employee to take and give books and save money and resources."
"This library is extremely loud ALWAYS. Staff do not even attempt to quiet themselves or any of the patrons/visitors. Staff are very friendly and helpful but COMPLETELY UNPROFESSIONAL. Do not come here for anything important/requiring silence, you will leave pissed."
"I'm staying in the area for a few months, went in once and came across very friendly and helpful librarians. The entire staff is friendly and polite. They have nice weekly event geared to people in the community that wouldn't necessarily be useful to me but it is nice to know that even with constant budget cuts they still manage to be there for people. Basic services are great, it is a massive or new location but it is tidy, clean and well kept. Very pleasant place overall."
