I really like this library because in the winter they have the fire place on and its a very cozy place to sit and read. the large study tables are great and have enough computer plug ins to accommodate several people at once. Great staff and front desk helpers too.

I was there writing some exams and the person that was "helping" me seemed very disorganized and not understanding about the time we are supposed to have to write the exam. I have enough stress when I am writing exams, I do not need that extra stress.

Friendly front desk staff - easy ro get a library card. They explain all their services, policies, and online items.
Very open and specious areas. Lots of tables to sit at and corners to read.
Quite a few computers to use and a large childrens section upstairs.

Beautiful building, underground parking is nice in the winter. Good selection of books and what they don t have you can order in. A really nice kids section that s on a whole different level, like really they have another level with it which is nice for safety for kids. Everything is quite modern and makes for easy check out. Staff is really nice and helpful especially Brandi

Gorgeous library! I didn't have too much time to explore around so I was unable to find everything I was looking for, however that was my own fault. I think what I needed may have been upstairs because I only perused the lower level.

The amenities at this library are wonderful. Lots of spacious seating areas, public computers, self-check out stations, they even have device charger stations near some of the seating areas!

I haven't been to any of the programs the library offers, but their offerings are plentiful and there are many I can't wait to attend. They have programs for babies, children, teens, adults, seniors and even disabled folks may find some great programs to meet new people.

Once you have a library card it opens up so many tools to use for digital materials. I will never be without something to read and it's so handy having them accessible from my device.

Hands down the best library and services that I have been too, and I've been to Manitoba, Ontario, and now Alberta!

(The coffee shop located to the right of the library lobby area makes better fraps than Starbucks too! I believe it is "Esquires")

The only thing I will say is the library's app could use a facelift, the library is so modern that I feel the app for them should be just as modern ;)

Beautiful design and a fun second floor for kids! The green furry felt carpet on the otherwise steel staircase is such an unexpected element it's a joy to walk on. Absolutely a joy to see and experience!

Lofty and light - a celebration of literacy and architecture!

Go to the library. Learn to paint. Attend a giant screening of a newly released movie. Listen to a fascinating lecture on King Arthur. Use a computer and catch up on Facebook. Order Audiobook so you have all the podcasts you could possibly want. Oh, and there's books too. Seriously, this place is amazing!

I recently used the library for their proctoring services. Quick and easy sign up for the service and a reasonable price. The proctor Selena was pleasant and helpful and the Rotary training room we used was a nicely equipped little room. I will have to find out if we can use that room for our own uses.

Such a great place to study and relax. Whether it's a group project or just some alone time, the public library has so much room and lots of different spaces to use. I love the hours and that it is open late for most of the weekdays, it's so convenient. It's too bad the underground parking is no longer free, but at least there's more parking available now at the back.
