Garden City Public Library

Cold. I use this adjective to describe my experience there on two fronts. First, the a/c was on full blast. Not a bad thing in the summer, but it was more chilly enough to make it unwelcoming. Second, in 45 minutes in the children's area not a soul said hello to my daughter nor to me. I mean you have the Nassau Library Tour going on you would think you'd be friendly to all patrons.

Kids screaming and running around the Library with no adult supervision, People Talking loudly, Library staff gossiping about fellow workers! This library is not a place to go and study for a test. There should be more supervision at this library. I do not recommend this library!

This quiet oasis is a real gem of a library. There are three levels with a little cyber cafe space downstairs level adjacent to the computer lab. There is also a large children's area as well as for an area for young teens. Study carralls were available and I found the staff to be friendly and approachable. There is also a book sale area as they receive many book donations.

Great library if you want to study or get work done. They have sofas and study tables with outlets similar to a college library. The only downside is the 2 hour parking which might not be enough for people wanting to study here.
