I came to this library because I recently moved back to the city and it is close to where I'm living - it also looks beautiful on the outside. I was really excited to visit but upon my arrival and walking toward the building, I got bombarded by at least three different adult solicitors (something about angels and other religious things...) I smiled and said "no thank you" politely however they kept trying to grab my attention as I walked inside the building - not the greatest impression but I was still open minded.
As the other reviews state, this place is LOUD. I mean, constant children screaming and yelling. It is VERY hard to ignore. I also found it very difficult to navigate the shelves and there weren't very many people there to help me out - I had to leave after 15 minutes because the noise and confusion was just too much. Maybe it is better when school is in session? I'm not entirely sure.. bummer.
