This library is SO tired and depressing. It's almost 2020, I think that every single study station needs at least (!) One outlet per student - which is basic. Not far from the desk, but at the desk. Faster WiFi.. come on. We need much more computer stations. The printers and copy machines are so broken and hard to work with.. and all its wires thrown on the floor.... Its making a joke out of paying students. There are moldy stains on the ceiling, no comfortable exit on the second floor, no women's close by WC, old version books, there arent enough study stations. The first floor is a hangout zone for students that have no where better to sit at on their breaks (ESP the area near the printers) - it's disturbing others to study and no one is taking care of it even when asking the person incharge at the printing station. Non inspiring, insulting facility. Students deserves much better than this.

Literally the worst library in cuny. Probably in America. It is only 2 floors and you cannot enter/ exit off the second floor. You could imagine how annoying it is to get up walk to and down the steps and walk some more to just use the bathroom. There is probably only 20 outlets in the entire library. 20! For a school with nearly 12 thousand students. Getting one is nearly impossible most of the time especially during club hours. The " quiet section" is anything but. Literally people havin conversations in person and on the phone both staff and students as if they're outside. The place where ypu actually find an outlet is right by the open steps so you can hear all the talking from the 1st floor and even outside the library as i am hearing right now and the study rooms have paper thin walls so it's as if you're in their convo how loud it can get.And don't get me started on the WiFi service. If I gotten a dollar everytime I said, " how does the college of technology has such horrible wifi" I wouldve been the richest person alive. Its worse inside the library than throughout the school like how. The hours is horrible. It's the only place that closes the same time even during midterms and finals. Brooklyn college library is a million times better with millions of outlets, open 24/7in the cafe, and ACTUAL SILENCE.

The services are only for registered students. The general public can't borrow books, use computers, print, or make copies. If you're just looking for a place to sit and study, all are welcomed.
