I love the Library on CSUCI Campus! They have a ton of open computers for students to use. I tend…read moreto bring my own laptop so I don't have to send files back and forth. For the most part, it is quiet, but you can't really control when other people are talking and loud. They do have designated "quiet" rooms if you are really that paranoid about it being quiet. The library also has a ton of group rooms that you can use when you have group meetings. During finals week, the library is open 24 hours!! Great for last minute cramming. But I'm not saying I do that....

I really like their study rooms, but they're always dirty. When I let the staff know they don't do anything about it and seem like they generally don't care.

We love coming here! This is my go to spot to entertain my son! They have a fish tank with lots of…read morefish, a puffer fish, and even an eel. The selection of books, cd's, dvds, and games is great! They even have thick board books in different languages for the babies. Then after you've selected some books for the week you take a short walk over the bridge and they have a turtle pond, two playgrounds for different age groups, and even a duck pond. It seems like you can rent a covered picnic table area to host an event. It really is a neat spot. The library staff is also kind and helpful! Definitely reccomend brining your kiddos here!

It's been almost a decade since I've been to the library. This library is spacious, clean, and…read moreorganized. The circulation desk staff helped me to obtain my library card and answered any questions I had about the library. You no longer pay any overdue/late fees if you're late retuning your book. You only pay if you lose or damage a book. There's an online collection of books, which your library card number and PIN (last 4 digits of your phone number) is the key to opening. You can read a novel on your phone if you decide to use the online collection. If someone has checked out a book either online or physically, you can place a hold on it for whenever it's returned. I placed a hold on a couple of physical books, got an email that they were ready to be picked up, and they scanned my library card and handed me the books. It's just an incredibly easy process. I'm also reading a book online from their digital collection. I feel incredibly foolish not having taken advantage of the library in years! There's free WIFI, plenty of events for kids and adults alike in the library (check the flyers in the library or go online), and the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful in helping you find what you need and explaining what the library has to offer. The only bummer is that the library is closed on Fridays and Sundays, but you have 5 other days to make use of the library's free resources!

The man in the counter was very helped, he let us know where we could find the book we were looking for. He also let me know that I already had an account with them and I could pay $1 for a replacement card. They only take cash for the payment. This library has different activities for young children can do. Today my children received a bag with a craft to work on at home. I liked that they have a self check out system, which is so easy to use.

(Yes, I have a library card and know how signing into a public library's network works). The ugly: The bathrooms! They are horrid! How can auto-sensors on the sinks and toilets be installed, and yet the bathroom itself be so disgusting? Priorities are out of order. And don't even get me started on the TP situation.

I love that you can request books online and easily pick them up here- or if the library doesn't have the book you want, they will purchase it and mail it to your home. Extremely nice library manager. Books were in great condition. One thing I didn't like was the parking lot. We were there during the day and there were some very scary people hanging out with off leash pitbulls. One lady tried to approach us (she seemed to be on drugs based on her behaviors), but luckily decided to go the other direction. I did not feel safe with my son walking the short distance to my car with people sleeping in their cars while their off leash dogs were running around the parking lot. The library has a security guard, but he only stayed inside the library. He needs to be patrolling the parking lot and front entrance as well, or at least watch to make sure young children get in and out of the library safely. We will return, but the other locations don't seem to have this safety issue. I hope the library looks into this.

Way easier to use the computer station here than in Simi, though I haven't used them there yet this year so that could've changed.

Also, their used book selection is pretty good, I left my purse in the car to avoid the temptation as I got three books at Simi senior center yesterday...
