Multnomah County Library - Gregory Heights

We love this library! I have 2 young kiddos and it is just perfect size and selection. My boys look forward each time we go. The librarians are so thoughtful and mindful of the kids, and they do a really great job with the kids' section.

I've been going to this library since 6th grade, and now its parking lot has become my refuge. I don't go inside the library because it's quite small and I am easily distracted by visual and auditory queues. The library has about six shared tables for people to use their laptop or read, including another few tables reserved for children. My solution to that is just to sit in my car to do my reading/research/work/study using my personal xfinitywifi account (their wi-fi hotpots are often located near a library for some reason), with the library's wi-fi as my backup. I've caught the attention of the library security guard once. He kind of peeked into what I was doing in my car, and saw that I was on my laptop writing up a paper so he didn't bother to knock on my window. If you are looking to find a place to work with minimal distractions and wi-fi access then any library parking lot would do.

Walked in was not even acknowledged by the staff as I stood at the front desk, both women looked at me and continued what they were doing, nobody said they would help me shortly they looked away and than one of the women just walked away from me. I may give Hollywood district a shot next time instead, even though is right next to my house. Thanks for nothing.
