They have a ton of great programming for all ages year round, but really beef it up in the summer months with their summer reading. They also tend to offer a reading program in the winter months which is a great incentive for both kids and adults! The children's room is packed with a wide variety of everything from board books to graphic novels and even Nintendo Switch games! They have some toys available for free play along with some STEM related activities. It is bright and cheery and a great place to spend time with your kids. The adult side of the library is well stocked and has a great variety of materials to browse. I like that they have a display of new items but also that they have "features" in the various sections as well. They also have several computers that you can use as well. There is free, ample parking available right outside the building. A wonderful library worth visiting and spending some time at!

The building is beautiful, and every time I visit I notice something new. The staff are always welcoming, friendly, and willing to help, which makes the library feel comfortable and inviting. What I appreciate most is that there are so many activities and events that are free or very low cost. There are plenty of programs for teens, families, and adults, and everyone is welcome. It's definitely worth the drive from the suburbs if you're looking for a unique place to spend a few hours. Between the architecture, the helpful staff, and all the community events, it's one of the coolest libraries I've visited. I wish I would have known about this place when my boys were little, it would be a great stop after visiting the museum.

A beautiful library filled with tons of amazing resources and interesting and unique finds!…read moreOne of the things I loved was that this branch has a music library! I could spend all day just in that section. You can look at (and check out) all sorts of things from musical scores, concert programs, newspaper clippings and more. They even have instruments you can check out! I don't think there is any other library in the area that offers this sort of department. There is something for everyone here (and then some!). I've been here with my kids when they were babies and have taken them here for a variety of programs or even just to stop in when we are in the area. There are plenty of places to relax and enjoy your book (including a cafe) but lots of quiet nooks and seating areas as well. There is no parking lot specific to the library, but there is a ton of metered parking in the area. I highly recommend visiting this library, especially if you are looking for something unique. Or even just to enjoy some quiet time in a beautiful space.

Some for all ages as well. The have a great multipurpose room for the programs, but also do some of them right in the library. The Children's room is on the smaller side, but they have a lot to offer. In addition to computers, they have a variety of toys like blocks, legos, dolls etc. They also often have a little scavenger hunt to find a certain character or item. Such a fun idea because it gets kids looking through the shelves and might help them find a new treasure. They have a great selection of books, audio books, DVDs and other media. You can also check out admission for places like the History Center and West Overton Village which is a neat perk. Friendly, accommodating staff and an overall wonderful place to spend some quiet time.

The library system has about 20 locations throughout the city, including this location in the Squirrel Hill neighborhood. My husband and I visited this library once recently. When we entered the library, a security employee kindly greeted us. We walked around the entire library and saw items such as nonfiction books, fiction books, CDs, DVDs, puzzles, and more for both adults and children. We also saw information desks, dozens of computers, and desks and chairs. Furthermore, the library's website says that visitors may use Wi-fi, photocopiers and printers (for a fee), scanners, fax machines, and meeting rooms. Overall, we liked this library. This library in Squirrel Hill is not as large as the main library in Oakland, but I think that it is a great place for people of various demographic groups to read, study, relax, or work.

The library is in an old home, so it's a bit cramped for space, but they have a good selection, and since they're part of the Allegheny Library System, you can pretty much get anything you want ordered for you. During the summers, they close early on Wednesdays and have a free concert on the porch. I don't know if there's a separate place to review the park, but it's a great space. They just got a grant and renovated the playground, so it's very nice. They also have a skate park which doesn't affect me directly, but I'm pretty sure it's a great space for kids to hang out. What's also great is they started a farmer's market this year. There are all sorts of goodies to get. I'm so glad I live within walking distance.

One of the more unique features are the kits that they have available for kids. They are bags that have a variety of books and activities for kids to participate with to immerse themselves in a particular subject. Their summer reading program has TONS of programming with events during the day and evenings and weekends as well. Free and convenient parking. Librarians are cheerful and eager to help.
