I can't speak to any of the other resources as I haven't used them. However, the way the staff treat the people in the library leaves a lot to be desired, hence my 2-star review. Although the publicly posted hours state they close at 6 pm, beginning at 5:30 pm, there is an aggressive push to get everyone out of the library, with constant announcements over the loudspeaker, security guard patrolling the study areas, and the librarians also coming around and reminding everyone to leave by 5:45 pm. At 5:35 pm, I was told that if I didn't leave by 5:45 pm I would be locked in the library with my child overnight. I stated the library closes at 6 pm, and we will be gone well before that time. At 5:55 pm, as we were leaving, the security guard and the librarian came over to tell us we were there past closing. They definitely scared my child into thinking that would happen. Woof. The overbearing staff is a bit much. But if anyone is down for a sleepover in the library, it's me!!

As of June they have reopened their doors. Note they have changed phone numbers too! The one on Yelp is correct, google is still being updated. (951) 654-4470 is the number you want to call. Being new in town, I went in looking for books for toddlers and a summer program and just like any library they had both. The girls at the desk were friendly and helpful. If you're applying for a new library card, bring ID and proof of address if you haven't updated address on ID. They will take an utility bill. Simple. Check done The selection of books here is fair, dvds not so much. Books vary on subjects and some in Spanish too. You do have to consider is fairly small library. Don't expect to find every single book in mind. But nonetheless don't feel limited to only space and books found here. Being a county library, you can order books from any library to be brought here and simply pick up once items arrive. If you're looking for a room full of computers, that's not the case here. They have about 4-5 computers with access to the internet. Printing black and white is .15 cents and color is .65 cents a page. They have space designated for kids which is nice and clean but in my humble opinion should be stocked a bit more. Overall this library is small and would love for the city to consider expanding it in a near future as the size of the library compared to all the households in San Jacinto is not proportional.

The library is clean and quiet but the children's section currently leaves something to be desired…read more There could be more board books however my biggest complaint is over the kids computers. There are 4 kids computers and my daughter waited 30 minutes for one to free up. When I spoke to the desk they said the children are allowed to use the AWE Learning computers for a full hour. Back in LA where I'm from, the computer gives you a 20 minute timer then asks you to log off. Not only do kids not need an hour of straight screen time when they're surrounded by books, but 4 computers is too small for a library full of children. If even 8 children come and go in one hour, that's half the kids who can't play. If this is resolved I don't think I'd have much of an issue. The staff's been very friendly (so so kind) and the area is very well maintained. It's honestly just the policy that needs an adjustment.

We attended the "animal talk" with guests LLC Reptile this month and the employee refused to use a microphone for over half an hour because he legit said "he's never used one before and didn't know how it worked" and with way too many kids and parents packed in that room, you couldn't hear anything. Library employees let it get out of hand, let children stand up so everyone behind them couldn't see and just couldn't control the noise level. It wasn't a fun experience and my kids begged to go half way through because it was just talking and barely any interaction. This is just feedback that you can hopefully take to improve on your next event. PLEASE think about passing out tickets (like the other locations) to control how many people can enter. We were there waiting 30 minutes prior, reading inside and we were almost the last ones in because we didn't know a mob had already formed blocking the entire entrance. The sad part was your entire parking lot was packed and vehicles were parked up and down the street for this event and all I heard were kids and parents complaining that they couldn't see/hear anything. We've also been to a craft day where because we sat at a back table, they ran out of the craft before they got to us which is strange since there weren't that many people there. Again, think about being more prepared or just limit how many people can join an event so everyone can have fun and feel included.
