“I can say this library is my number one. It has plenty of nice spots for studying for adults and kids." "There are two rooms for group study, which you can reserve in advance." "The atmosphere is clean and pleasant." "The restrooms are also clean, which caught my attention when compared to other libraries." Furthermore, the library is open on Sundays(12-5). I wish they could expand their opening hours because I really enjoy spending my weekends there studying.”

“SJPL is generally a great library system, and this branch, in particular, is really amazing. You can, of course, order items from throughout the system. Given that context, I think their in-branch selection makes a ton of sense and is very space-efficient. They certainly do have a large selection of English-language items, but they also have lots of Vietnanese, Spanish, and Chinese catering to the local population. They also have a large kid selection, as well as dedicated toys, play areas, and touch screens for using the provided ABCmouse membership. I really like that they have a variety of computer stations for different needs. They offer a lot of community services like events, training, etc. My only gripe is that the last time I went, the computers were cutting out every half hour or so, forcing people to log back in. It was pretty annoying, but I'm hoping that's not normal and can be addressed.”

“It is a mystical and serene oasis that reflects the Rosicrucian principles of beauty, nature, and spirituality. Also, they have a free parking lot, which is super convenient. Overall, the Rosicrucian Garden offers a unique and enchanting experience that is sure to leave a lasting impression.”

“It's convenient. Just be the next of the community center. This library is especially good for children and teenagers. But for adults, it might not be so quiet. Good for mothers to bring your baby here”

“My new favorite Public Library find! Beyond even just being in a sculpture garden, this is A treasure indeed as there is both a WORKING payphone out front and a bike repair station. Restrooms are large and clean at the entrance, with family restrooms just inside the entry way and as a single story building, wheelchair friendly. I was delighted to see an entirely separate safe space teen zone. Impressed at the variety of languages of newspapers, extensive dvd collection, lots of reading and study spaces. Wifi and electrical outlets, as well as a variety of efforts to make literature accessible to all.”

“Expansive building and massive book collection, lower lighting on the upper stories. Available to the public with signing in at kiosk, presenting ID, answering questions that you just filled out about yourself, and being printed out a day pass. Upon exit they will want to look inside your bag. The more modern furniture is on the main floor and that gets pretty full at certain times of day. The second floor has the lovely Lane Humanities study room and the windows and long wooden tables give it a classical feeling, just avoid the couple of very creaky wooden chairs and spare yourself the embarrassment. On the 3rd floor are the more general book collections and is currently partially under construction. There are work and study desks along the walls, furniture is like stepping back into the 90s. The loveliest room is the Bender reading room on the 5th floor. All in all, descent spot to study. Uni wifi, bathrooms on each floor, but you do have to have an ID and you'd think the university could afford some updated furniture.”

“Love this library so much! Two floors, overlooking the park with beautiful big windows. Tons of natural light. Nice sculptures. Huge selection of books, short hold wait times. Recently moved the video game selection from behind the desk out where you can view them (still need to pickup the disk from the desk which is more than reasonable). Upstairs will sometimes have puzzle out for people to try. Great angled tables for drawing. Tons of computers. Many quiet places to sit and read. They even had a complimentary gift wrapping station during the holidays! Very sweet and friendly library staff including security during the pandemic.”

“It's a great place to work long hours with very helping and friendly people and staffs around. Media suits are very limited though and the technical support is not for multimedia problem solving. But its very homely and perfect to work alone. Its nothing like the MIT media lab. Its Stanford's own little place gwith a techlounge.”

“Lovely St. Charles County Library Branch with friendly staff and self-checkout stations. The section by the fireplace is and awesome place to sit and read. It has a large children's section and helpful librarians stationed specifically in that area to help you find new books and movies for the kiddos.”

“Hosts one of the best online map collections in the West! The map center is located at Sanford University in the main library. The center is a bit hard to find but a fun search also. You travel up two flights of stairs. The stairwell is beautifully painted with murals of maps. The center itself is mostly an auditorium. There is a wall-sized multi-touch display of Google Earth that features many of the collected maps which are georeferenced and overlaid on the interactive map. This is one of the most exciting features to work with in the room. There are some physical maps and historical artifacts to view. However, the full map collection is accessible online and from my knowledge, not available for viewing at the center. For the best experience, visit when there is a scheduled talk or seminar.”

“My favorite library of a lifetime of visiting libraries weekly and being a major bookworm. Feels comfortable, the staff know me by name. I use the express pick-up. I can't wait for it to open because I always utilize their printer. Very reasonable cost for printing.”
