Love this library: friendly, efficient and knowledgeable staff with a fine collection and assortment of reading and media possibilities available from a relatively small building. And a particularly loud shout out for the security professional that literally has to “shout” “the library will close in 15 minutes” then 5 minutes each day! In sum, a wonderful environment for the learning, reading public!
Excellent staff and selection of books. Kids area is always kept clean and organized. Our kids love going there.
Staff is friendly and the library is organized and well kept. However, if you are planning on doing any type of studying or just want quiet time, I suggest you find somewhere else to work. They let the kids run wild and scream incredibly loud. Parents don't try to maintain their kids and the staff doesn't say anuthing
The library staff is very kind. There are not many books in the library, but the environment is very good and suitable for reading.
I wish we knew this was here sooner. Lived in this neighborhood for 3 years and didn’t know about this library until I searched for my closest one. It’s tucked behind the businesses on Pinnacle Peak Rd. It has lots of parking, it’s super quiet each time we’ve been, they offer discounted tickets to local / city attractions at no cost, computers, books and a great assortment of recent movies to rent. There’s an area for kids and teens and an outdoor area as well. Close to local businesses if you wanted to walk for a bite to eat if you’re doing extended studying.
This is a small neighborhood library. It is clean, friendly, and offers many classes. Agave is part of the interlibrary exchange so if they don't have what you're looking for another Phoenix library can ship it to this location for later pick up. There are multiple computers for public use. They even have a free seed exchange to help you grow seasonal veggies.
My son was using the computers trying to listen to an audiobook while following it with a physical book. We're working on our reading skills. A bunch of adults were standing nearby, hanging on the low wall that surrounds it and talking so loud he couldn't even hear the audiobook. Three librarians were standing at the desk, not far away, not doing anything. Not even after I made a comment. Just don't go. Pick a different library
My girls love coming to this library at least once every two weeks. They pick out tons of books, we read them all together, at least twice. Our library day is something we all look forward to through the week. I also pick up some good reads! I love the fact you can check out everything yourself, the kiddos can even scan the books themselves! If your ever in need of help they're always there to help in a kind manner. We have never had a single problem here. This library is perfection.
This library was clean and quiet and well stocked. Graphic novels are in good supply as well as reference books on coding and resume writing. The staff were fantastic, well informed and quick to offer suggestions and or ideas on additional reading and resources. This was my first visit to a library in over a decade and the staff helped me with a library card and helped me navigate the stacks. Best library I have visited in a long time thanks Agave!
