    It totally lost the meaning of a library. Why is it called a library if it doesn't even have a quiet study area.

    My last visit was not very pleasant, after witnessing a mentally ill homeless guy (who always hangs out in this library) harass a woman trying to read a newspaper. The library has no security and the administration in this branch ignores the problem instead of addressing it. Pretty sad that you can't visit a library without there being safety measures in place.

    Great selection of DVDs for such a small branch, I guess this is where they keep a lot of them, tiny selection of audiobooks. Good for having holds delivered via holds. Staff is pretty unhelpful. It's packed with kids messing around with the self checkout machines, and the staff won't check you out even if the machines are overrun by kids who don't know how to use them and are fighting with each other about who will check stuff out. I haven't run into that at other branches, even a small one. I didn't see bike racks outside but there are street signs. It's pretty loud, but less echoey than the Park Slope branch, so probably no worse for working, if one must. Its not a pretty building, inside or out. It's close to a few blocks with lots of okay neighborhood food and one coffee place.

    Really friendly service and good pickup for books you order online.

    We got here the min they were opening. Alot of parents bring their kids here but they have a whole area for kids which is really nice and inviting. They even have laptops for them to play on with educational games. I have not interacted with the staff so can't tell you much but they seem nice. It's clean semi quiet.
