MOST INCREDIBLE!! That’s what you will say when you see a library on top of a river that’s running underneath it! Wow I love this place and I get the pleasure to work here and the staff are the kindest and most caring people and they do so much more here then books! People come here to get their basic needs met , food, shelter, water, and the best part ME! I’m here for peer support to anyone who needs it, Tuesday and Fridays, come see me!!

I use to love this library. Funny how the library owner replies to every review but does little to work with the problems. This library is pretty much a homeless camp and when they're not inside they're sleeping in the bushes and on the benches. I use to come here a lot but because this is a homeless camp now I won't come in here any more. It's a noisy library where people listen to music loudly on their headphones, eat food nosily people obviously have hygiene issues...

We have to be mindful of the outdoor community, although the hygiene part can be bit overwhelming at times, I have no issues with the homeless as anyone can fall on hard times. The library is big enough to get some privacy and always meets my expectation.

The library is beautiful and has lots of chairs and tables to work at, but the atmosphere is not very nice. From inside the library I could here bass coming from the cars at a stereo shop nearby. There were people sleeping in the chairs. There were teenagers playing music so loud in their headphones that I could hear it too. Definitely not one of my preferred places to work/study.

It does not cost anything to book a study room, but you wouldn't be able to use the room for a spa treatment. All room bookings are open to the public so anyone can come in. You can read more on our room booking page or speak with a staff member. http://rooms.kcls.org/spaces?lid=2394
