Toronto Public Library - Brentwood Branch

A library done right. Makes you feel fancy with its great interior design. Has a study room for teenagers/kids with bean bag couches and cushion benches. Wifi here is reliable and does its job. Librarians are always friendly at this location, never had an issue once. Wish all libraries were like this.

I have always liked this library. Excellent location, great interior and exterior, friendly atmosphere, quiet, love the fire place etc. Lately, feels like a sterile and police zone. Red signs over 95% of computers, the remaining 4-5 computers are being sanitized every few hours, meaning no access. The printer not always works, WIFI is slow. Last but not least - the ladies could use a good up to date haircut and color. It feels depressing now. I realize, the times have not been favorable, but when is this going to feel like normal again?

Very clean and quiet library to sit and do work or read. Staff is friendly and bathrooms are clean and you are permitted to drink inside. I usually come here Saturday mornings so I find there’s always available spaces but not sure about other times.

I agree with the other writer about the noise. Earphone wearing staff member was putting the books away like he was tossing brinks. bang bang bang .Very distracting. LOUD ongoing text message notification every single time I come here. Every 10 min or so we all get to hear full volume text notification. Today there is a homeless guy sleeping on the bench at the top of the stairs. His multiple knapsacks etc sitting on the floor. No staff make a move to stop any of this.On the positive side , they are open to 8:30 5 days a week. It is large with lots of seating facing the windows. No one bothers you. I have been coming almost every weekday with my laptop to study and always feel comfortable and welcome.

Perfect customer service!I needed to print some documents and I received some much help there.

Nice neighborhood library, multiple floors with a dedicated children’s area which includes books and toys. Modern, clean design with stroller/wheelchair friendly parking, doors and elevator. Upstairs has many workstations and armchairs with many outlets for laptop work. Free WiFi with a terrible connection (not sure if this is related to the number of people using it but it barely works even though the connection is strong).

Very clean, friendly staff, super clean washrooms.

Nice local library. Good selection for a library of its size. Games, toys and activities in kids section. It has French children's books which is a pleasant surprise.

I was so excited to visit this library and drove quite a bit but only got there to find out it was paid parking! Parking is relatively tight and sparse. $3/hr and $9 max/day. It may not seem much to some but for me it is. I drove here in order to find some good material and get work done but was unable to. Perhaps I’ll visit the inside someday but not today. I heard the architecture is beautiful.

Beautiful library, but no parking for library users. Only paid parking, $3/hr!! I Wish this location makes free parking available to be able to use this public library.
