The library system here is pretty fantastic, really useful (especially with the Hoopla app), and I especially appreciate all the diverse events, classes/workshops, etc. put on by the library.

I just wish in the Redmond Branch that you would limit SOME computer Internet area for adults only. The kids play online war games and talk loud and yell at each other during the game while they are online. This is VERY disruptive, and I deserve to have quiet while I'm using the library, too, please. I always ask them nicely to please be quiet, but they make fun on me and just keep on talking loud and acting out. It would certainly be easy enough to limit the library card to over 18 years for these adult areas. There are already teens Internet areas and kids Internet areas for these kids to use, so why are they using the Internet lab and behaving so badly? They also have access in school. On the other hand, I do NOT have affordable access without the public library, which I am VERY grateful for (and happy to pay taxes for); however, this makes my experience very poor in the library. I've complained about this for years, now, and nothing is ever done. Please think about doing something about this. Thank you!

You will need to download the app from the app store, and I also use the overdrive app to read the books in. You will need a library card to do this.

Can I get tickets for Monterey aquarium

Sandy Parnell | Aug 29, 2018
SU | Aug 29, 2018

There are four museums listed on the library website for which the library provides passes. The aquarium is not included.

I like downloading ebooks to my kindle from the library. I was wondering why I get books I can’t download unless I join certain publishers like Simon & Schuster for a cost ? Iam trying to get the book The Tea girl of Humingbird Lane. Thank you.

Debbie DeLateur | Aug 29, 2018

Simon & Schuster have control over what books they have published that can be downloaded (or not) for free. They prefer to make money. You may borrow the physical book from the library without cost.
