Staff always helpful. Plenty of reading selections. Quiet and comfortable. Only 4 stars today - because they're redoing the Fiction and Mystery sections. Authors A to G not currently browse-able...

Good selection of books, but it's often too crowded to study in. The little swamp outside the library is absolutely gorgeous.

It's always awesome experience here . Today my son need some research help and asked a question to librarian. Wow. She answered him for all his questions and helped to find out where and how he can get more details , how he can do online and place request and go on by him self . This is his 1st experience at this library. He used to go there when he was 3 yrs old and we used to do things for him but today he was so happy with his experience and the old lady , she is super human at this age . Very very knowledgeable and make his trip super excited. She was helping almost everyone around.

Take ID with you (like a driver's license) to the library counter. They can look up your account and give you a new card. Just like Srikanth said, but you will need ID.

Why does it opens so late 1pm to the public? Being a student myself, can I access the library before 1pm?

The library budget covers many things. It costs money to keep the library open more hours. Perhaps you can use your school library for the hours the public library is closed.

I don't know the hours but the Alameda County Library web site has all that information. Union City library has quite s few workstations as well as laptop computers. I have never seen all of them in use.

Why the library timings are made so differently for each day?

The library hours are determined by usage and budget.
