Orinda Library - Contra Costa County Library

Gail Hunt, LCSW, BCD

The Orinda Library was built anew a few years ago. It is very comfortable, housing many computers for your use. There are also a few side rooms where small groups (6 or so) may meet separately. The staff is very helpful. Adjacent to the library is Orinda's used books where one can find a myriad of treasures. The library is reached via elevator, conveniently located in the garage just off of Orinda Way. Downstairs is a lovely coffee shop. The outside setting is quite magnificent with a large cascading fountain.

Great library. Large complex. Comfortable. In the Summer you can park your car in the basement parking lot. There is a large parking lot across the street in an office complex.

Nice community library. In case of heavy traffic at highway 24, I used to stop here and get some books. More videos now.

It's a nice Library with comfortable chairs, but the Internet connection is excruciatingly slow (this is in comparison to Livermore Library). It seems as if all the Contra Costa Libraries have slow internet connectivity. I highly doubt anyone is using up all bandwidth on streaming services like YouTube since often, I'm one of the very few people there.
