Reviews
"Overall I like the library. There are enough desks and computers for visitors to use. More seniors are here. However the noise level can be high. The library staff doesn’t seem to care to remind people they need to be quiet and sometimes talk even louder than anyone else."
"Beautiful setting, helpful staff, good layout and plenty to read. It is frustrating to find the parking lot full of people camped out in their cars and nowhere left to park. Most of these campers appear to have no interest in the libraries intended purpose. They just need a place to park near a bathroom Sunday hours are a plus"
"This library is clean, organized, and well staffed. It feels safe and I bring my preschool aged daughters here without hesitation. A wonderful selection of books for readers of all ages. A children's section that has books, toys, and computers for only them to enjoy. Jasmine was extra helpful in directing me to the books I was looking for and has an exemplary demeanor when dealing with anyone, especially children."
"I love this library. It's a stunning building housing a warm staff, large rooms with windows looking out at Monterey Bay and a great system of books . It serves the whole community and is alive everyday with children,toddlers, elders , readers of newspapers with time on their hands , parents who bring kids to both learn and find the love of reading. What more could you ask of a library"
