Clean, beautiful, magical place. I love going there. It s even better after the renovation. My kids always have a great time when they are there. Time flies.
Always love going to the GPL!!! And so do the kids.
Excellent place to do my college assignments. It's quiet and I'm able to concentrate.
Beautiful library!! Parents please take your kid here! I fear when they have kids libraries will be long gone!!
Simply the best. It s clean, well-maintained, great selection of books. The team they have is wonderful!
Greenwich library currently has only 2 group session rooms. These rooms are pretty much available 98% of the day. Guidelines state that the rooms may only be reserved for 3 hours/per day per Individual. Guidelines don't impose this limitation to the group. Furthermore, fellow librarians provide conflicting messaging - one notes that an exception can be made to extend 1x for an additional 3 hours if no one is using whereas another reinforced the guideline that is specific to the individual rather than the group. Therefore, my team reserved a room in 3 hour increments - 3 of us and therefore 3 separate reservations. We were told to cancel our reservations and therefore both rooms remained empty for the remainder of the day. Schedule screenshots prove how reservation of these rooms does not occur yet the librarians ensured that we could not make use of them either. VERY CONDUCIVE TO LEARNING AND TEAMING (sarcasm) which you would assume a library would encourage. Appalled at the lack of care or sympathy during these times. In a normal time, we would not need to meet in a library to collaborate for work. Lives up to the librarian stereotype in movies.
First class cutting edge facility, the most impressive small town library I ever seen out of many countries. They even have a bloomberg terminal, 3D printers and more. Small items to work though: 1) No bicycle rack 2) On the cafeteria you'll be asked to wear your mask even if they see you eating or drinking (oxymoron). The security guy not friendly, will kind of harass you.
Made appointment to use their computer. Very spacious and clean. People working very helpful and friendly!
