Wow this is definitely one of the most rowdy libraries I've been to. If you're a college student/young professional looking for some peace and quiet to get work done, don't come here.
I was in the area and stranded without a car, so I decided to be productive in the library for a day. I've been here since around 10 on a Wednesday. In the morning, there was a story time where kids gathered for stories read aloud. Not ideal for me, but I don't complaint since this is the library providing a valuable resource and fun experience for the kiddos.
What I will complaint about is the fact that the patrons are VERY inconsiderate in this library. At my table, there's a guy watching videos out loud. Since there are only a handful of tables here, you have to share for table space. 2 tables behind mine, there's a guy tutoring students in chemistry?? Also out loud, and in normal volume. You'd say, that's pretty distracting, how do you focus? Luckily, the video and tutoring are drown out by literally children screaming and running through the halls, followed by half hearted chidding from their parents. Nothing is being done by the librarians to keep order.
To be fair, I'm not familiar with the usual culture and rules of this library. Maybe it isn't a quiet place kind of library. But that notwithstanding, I really wish the librarians would try and keep people a bit more quiet. The bottom line is that, go to Starbucks. Don't study here.
Update 1 hour later:
Low key wanna take a video if it weren't illegal. Can't make this up. Newly added to the cacophony is (1) a guy snoring hella loud, (2) a lady on the phone arguing, (2) kids playing video games on a computer. #Ded.
