Maywood Public Library

By far this library has to be the most loud land noisy library that I've ever been in. The patrons are on their phone and/or talking loud to one another.....and/or the library employees are having a loud conversation with each other from one end of the library to the other...not just talking but screaming loudly, If one were trying to concentrate one would absolutely have to go to another library. It's a nice library, very airy and bright....but very loud. Upon leaving I asked the woman behind the desk if libraries should be quiet places....her response: Not here, we don't abide by that rule!!

The Maywood Library has been an incredible resource for my family and me over the past three years. Together, we’ve read more than 1,000 books, and this experience has truly helped us grow and evolve in knowledge and perspective. The library provides a warm, welcoming environment and a fantastic collection that makes reading a joy for all ages. One of the best features is Bergen County’s book-sharing system, which allows easy access to books across all libraries in the network. This collaborative approach ensures that readers never feel limited by location—every book you want is just a request away. If you’re looking for a place that inspires curiosity, supports lifelong learning, and connects you to a broader community of readers, Maywood Library is the perfect choice. Highly recommende

This library is clean and quiet. Has lots of book collections and Librarians are very friendly our kids enjoy being there.

This was extremely quiet and clean, with a virtual assistant on a Saturday. The sale had very affordable books. The children's area still has toys and puzzles, but seemingly, fewer than at other libraries.

This library has done quite a turn over in the past few years. Physically it has undergone so much change with money donated. It is beautiful, multifloored and has lots of events for kids and adults. There is a lot of place to sit and relax to do your work or read etc. love the plant collection is beautiful and makes it very nature focused and relaxing. I just wish they had more books in the collection. Lastly, really dislike that they have not reverted back to opening on Sundays! It would be really helpful for those that need to study etc. Please reconsider
