Faneuil Branch of the Boston Public Library

Not totally silent but still a nice place to study. A little small but very well-decorated

The staff is always incredibly friendly, patient, and helpful. The interior after the renovation is very nice, I especially love the mural of the T-Rex in Space in the kids section. And what a kid's section! My kid loves going there.

Beautifully renovated library branch: staff is outstanding in their helpfulness, friendliness and knowledgeability. A real gem in the neighborhood.

Excellent selection of books and beautiful atmosphere. The Lucky Day program provides reliable access to new releases that would otherwise sit on hold lists for months. Additionally, the printing services are indispensable to someone who would otherwise not have access to them. Staff is kind, helpful, and dedicated to maintaining this essential community space.

I was very excited for this library to re-open in Oak Square, as I know many young professionals live here and it would be great to have a local spot to get some work done or read. The staff seems nice, but they are extremely loud, constantly shouting to each other across the library which is just one large open space. The library is consistently full of very young children as well. This is not really a traditional library, it is more like a local community center or coffee shop.
