When it is open again. Post Covid-19. It'll be a great place to sit and read or study. Cozy fireplace in the front and quiet desks in the back. Staff is exceptional.
They have a decent collection of reading material. If there's something you're looking for and they don't have it, it can be brought in through interlibrary transfer.
There are a lot of seating areas although most are occupied by the homeless that use the library as a gathering place. I don't begrudge them this as they usually have nowhere else to go. Better that they engage in looking for employment on the public computers or learn new skills from the material available.
The staff are knowledgeable and friendly and quick to assist should you need it. Overall a fairly decent library.
This branch is pleasant and quiet for the most part It has a reasonable selection of books, DVDs, and CDs to borrow. This library also offers a good selection of audiobooks and E-books for members to download for a reasonable period of time such as 3 weeks. The library also offers streaming TV and movies from Hoopla and Acorn and Indie TV. The atmosphere inside is pleasant and quiet. Near the entrance, sometimes hang around, but the RCMP on bicycles disperse them periodically. Some ask for cash, and I say no. There are agencies to assist people in Courtenay.
A wonderful library and a great space populated by the best librarians that I have ever met. This gem is ineluctably marred by the clutter of alcoholics and drug addicts that simmer around the front entrance sometimes spilling over into the inside reading area, especially and understandably in the winter months.
Beautiful sitting area with an electric fireplace, comfy chairs and regular tables and chairs. Free public access to computers for 1 hr each day with a library card. If you are from out of town, you can get a temporary access number to log on for an hour. Great helpful staff, clean washrooms, good accessibility, lots of places to study, read, work on projects etc.
