This is one of my favorite places to work. There are a variety of seating areas, clean restrooms, and an outdoor patio where wifi extends.

Nanu Nanu! I couldn't find any streaming sources for Mork and Mindy, only buying options! I underestimated my local library, they got it a Curbside Pickup away! Super professional and efficient! Nanu Nanuu..!! ! 🥚👨🥚

Love this place. Liked the individuals desks. The staff were really helpful. Plenty of parking. Only down side is that there is only one stall in the men’s bathroom. If they had a coffee shop here it would be fantastic.

Do you have a bulletin board inside the library to post non-profit event flyers?

Michele Epstein | Aug 27, 2019
Menlo Park Library | Aug 27, 2019

Hi Michele, unfortunately no. But there is a kiosk available to the public for posting flyers and notices that is just outside both Menlo Park libraries. Near the Main Library, it is a round kiosk near the parking lot, towards the duck pond (not far from the library bike racks). Near the Belle Haven Branch Library is is a rectangle message board near the plaza between the branch library/school and the City's Child Development Center (410 Ivy Drive).
