The Strathcona branch is a community resource, serving a wide variety of people. All my experiences there have been very good. The staff is unfailingly courteous and helpful.
I have had mostly positive experiences at this location. Most employees are courteous and helpful, yet others boorish in manner. Some employees can be downright nasty, as is the case of a person who wears his hair in a bun, is chubby, has a beard, effeminate -sorry, never got his name-. He was curt, downright nasty to me, so I was not a happy camper. I have seen him be extremely solicitous when serving a young good looking hoodlum the other day. This morning I was served by an employee who was helpful, but reminded me of a drill sergeant as she attached the word "sir" to every sentence when addressing me. Cold as ice! Of course I counteracted with "Ma'am" to finish every sentence. Sorry about the rant but I was extremely annoyed.Bemused, yet amused. :/ Gorgeous building, though!
Fantastic little library in the heart of the commercial district of Old Strathcona. Great selection of childrens books and activities in both the main floor and upstairs. Knowledgeable and professional staff make you feel welcome.
Really helpful and friendly staff. They keep the place very well organized so its not too difficult to find what youre looking for. I love to come here with my kid and take advantage of the free wifi or one of the kids programs. We especially like the different programs they run during the summer. Its so nice to have an option for keeping your kids busy and entertained without having one more thing to pay for. Wheelchair accessible. Public washrooms and water fountains available. After hours book drop located on the outside of the building.
If you require a quiet place to work or study go downstairs. Upstairs can be quiet noisy with screaming kids running around. More like a daycare than a library. In addition, the upstairs room seems to attract people who like to talk loudly to each other rather hold conversations at a more subdued level to accommodate study or quiet contemplation over a book.
