"I love this library as an alternate to MLK because it has free parking"
I really like this library. It has a great staff, computer lab, and a cute little children's area. It also has a private parking lot so it's really convenient. It is one of the smaller libraries in San Jose so not the biggest selection. However you can always go online and order your books to be picked up at this location.
It's a marvelous library. Great children's area. I stop occasionally when I'm in the neighborhood to see what books they have for sale. I've found a number of books to add to my library. Very quiet and staff is very helpful. I highly recommend anyone who loves a quiet space to read and browse to go there.
It's smaller than other libraries is San Jose but it's close to home, so it's convenient. I used to go here for all the story times and some events for children, but after COVID, every thing is limited. Still, I love my home library where I can order books and magazines online and come pick up here.
What I like about this library is its location and decor. It's conveniently located in Willow Glen downtown. We always walk to the coffee shop and then this library. The library is so clean and staff are very friendly. I noticed they also have story time every Saturday. Highly recommend it!
I love this library as an alternate to MLK because it has free parking. The computer lab is clean and well kept. The outside courtyard is awesome with a huge Oak Tree. There's chairs by a fake fireplace? A great area to read magazines. There's even a quiet room to do some intense studying.
Cozy library dwelled in the residential area: beautiful architecture with a center yard under a huge tree. Big children space with multilingual books. Not crowded at all. Really comfortable and lovely atmosphere. A few min from downtown so you can go to the restaurant after library trip.
The staff was very helpful! It had been awhile since I've visited the library- a lot has changed! It was very easy to sign up for another library card. Everything is a lot more accessible and fast-paced. They're doing a great job keeping up with the times!
So easy and efficient to open a new card. The setup is nice and easy to follow and easy to find the right book. I was looking for a specific book and the main librarian was so helpful and looked up the book for me. It was currently on rent,
I brought my 1 yo to the library in hopes to participate in the outdoor family story time. We were turned away cause of “Covid” and them limiting participants. I can tell you know, there was plenty of space, multiple empty chairs and areas
Great library. Nice location. Only one study room though for only one hour. Need more San Jose library cards to renew. People are nice do friendly and like to help and support. They did help my mom create her library card. The lady was so
Definitely not planned with pedestrians or people with small children in mind- the only book return is a slot outside by the parking lot and books need to be returned one by one. Books are not returned inside the library so if you come in
This San Jose Library is within walking distance from my family’s home! Great convenience for all of us. The current version is the 2nd iteration of this library. It has served all four members of my family. We often spend hours in the
A small library tucked away in Willow Glen, the serenity and peace of this place is absolutely a treasure. Well stocked and a great staff as well. You would be hard-pressed to find a better place to study♥️
Great studying space. Has lots of natural light. Outdoor wifi seating area, fireplace, cute kiddie section. It feels clean well kept and there are lots of little details that just make it a welcoming.
Careful of this place if you are a specific type of asian man. While this library serves mostly women with their children, there a few men hanging out here waiting to pounce and get a free meal.
Excellent selection of books, very well kept and organized. Recommended books on display are refreshed often and according to seasons and festivities. The kids area is always nice!

Very nice library. Although the books stock isn't wide. There are other libraries with a wider stock.
Nice library, small but plenty of seating options. And a fireplace
