Hamilton Public Library - Central Library

If you need a circuit machine or a 3D print they offer that, also you can use the computers and print up to 10 pages free daily. Books lots of books. Also if you have any overdue everyone was granted a clean slate. So you can start fresh with a new card.

Best Library in Ontario. Supports the community in many ways -- Free WiFi, computers, tax forms, ebooks, educational materials, programs and entertainment in a time when people need a lift. Very friendly and helpful staff. Large selection of new Movies and books.They have a great computer lab among other things. Great place to visit with the family.

The security will not do anything until someone complains about persecution and noise pollution.In your opinion, how many out of ten people are willing to complain? And how many people leave the library without complaining? And they may prefer to never come to this library again.I am giving 2 stars for the security's weak reaction against addicted people and those who are talking and laughing very loudly and they make the environment dirty, they play music loudly.I think the security should be more strict to make the library a safe and quiet place for students and those who are going to study there.

Huge beautiful space with a great selection of books, a rentable piano room, huge beautiful plants, cheap printing, and all kinds of community events. What a great library space.

Library's are changing and Hamilton Library's are no different. They have 3D printers, a green room to shoot videos, and a even a music recording studio (mind you it's small but pretty cool).

Great space, lots of activities, professional and helping staff. Internet speed is up to 10Mbps. Access is free but if you want all features - you'll need a photo ID and Hamilton residency proof.

One of the best libraries I've ever been to. Genuinely a great space for quiet study, for collaboration, for anything. Book selection is fine, the only thing I find it's lacking is the graphic novels section, but everything else is well-stacked and the self service tech is really good

I visit often and it's a pretty good place to read and study. Wonderful staff. I usually have to move to a different area at least twice per visit because someone starts to watch a movie or listening to music on their tablets or phones. Sure wish the library had a headphone or earbud enforcement policy. Security is doing an amazing job, especially at the end of the month when the library is daycare for meth-heads. Only having two washrooms open has really helped to keep this problem to a minimum.

City of Hamilton have poorly equipped library and this location is One of the unfriendly places!! Kids area should have friendly staff not mean and rude who is ready to lecture! My experience has been very bad and almost every single person I met there complained about same things and end up trying other locations or quitting and resort to other services. Other public library have friendly, nice, inviting and engaging staff who can joke and play and help kids. Someplace had tent, toys and building magnets..Please staff member of this library visit other cities like Cambridge and see for yourself. If you can’t be friendly, then please stay home and don’t be near our children.Sincerely,Disappointed parent.Ps at this location, some members - old lady- can yell at your children if they get excited- I’m talking 3-4 years old.

It's a beautiful library. I love the huge space, its cleanness, and its seeming safety. It has a large selection of reading and entertainment material, great modern facilities, and helpful staff.BUT!, I cannot for the life of me understand how so much loud chattering and loud music from mobile phones can be tolerated in ANY library. This is violently antithetical to the peace and quiet that libraries are, or should be, known for!!!Do better!!!
