Montclair Public Library—Bellevue Avenue Branch

"Folks at this library are very helpful when you need to track down research materials and any latest NYT reviewed books. The huge windows and air conditioning, a plus; nearby delicious food and caffeine- charged shakes, the best. PLAYA is across the street and Jackie’s GRILLETTE two blocks away! Thank you BELLEVUE LIBRARY STAFF!"

"Recently decided to visit this library for some study time. However, I will not be coming back due to the lack of friendliness/professionalism from the front desk librarian. When I first walked in and asked her a question, she seems annoyed and later with 20 mins left to spare before closing time, she approached me and said, "better hurry and wrap up whatever you are doing, we are closing now." No one likes feeling rushed, and there was certainly a negative and condescending tone from her that was not appreciated. This is unfortunate knowing that the library is only a 5 min drive for me. Please address this and do some much needed training with your staff."

"Unfortunately the front desk lady Gandhi seems bothered by every question. The computers are barely working and the best she could offer was they keep freezing. With this being the post internet age there is no reason a library should have only 2-4 computers and both of them inaccessible!"

"I enjoy taking my baby to storytime, but I am deducting a point because the library isn't handicap accessible and the stairs leading to the lower level are very narrow."

"Fantastic, accomodating staff. Wonderfully kid-friendly and has an amazing selection... one of the best libraries I've ever been!"
