A library with quite a lot of selection considering the small City. There are hundreds if not over a thousand movies you can borrow, and they have a pretty good computer lab as well.

If you're looking for free diapers for your babe or sibling like me go there every Saturdays but don't forget to register. I highly recommend 👌 😊

Outside of the college/university library system, this is easily one of my favorite libraries in San Diego. It's quiet, the study desks are plentiful, the hours are reasonable, the staff is friendly, and power is accessible. Also, I don't know what it is about the chairs at this library, but these are easily the best desk chairs I have ever sat in, that did not also include a cushion. A potential drawback is that it is often very cold in here, so just bring a sweater.

Questions & Answers

Are there computers that we can use?

Precious Shawntaya Jackson | Aug 21, 2019

Yes, there is a computer room on the second floor you can use for 2 hours. The first floor computers have a 45 minute limit and the children's library has computers for the children as well. Don't forget to bring your ID for a computer access card. If you want to borrow books, bring your ID and a piece of mail with your name and address to the circulation desk.

I understand the library is now giving out menstrual supplies for free. How does this work? * Process? * Type and Amount given? * How often can it be accessed? I know women there that would be grateful for this resource. Thank you!

If your 13+ but still younger that 18, can you still register for a library card? Without a parent?

ぐでたまGudetama | Aug 21, 2018
Aidan Cov | Aug 21, 2018

Nope you'd need a representative to take responsibility for your account, since you're still younger than 18. If you do go in with a guardian make sure they bring in an ID and a separate proof of address like a utility bill or mail
