Tempe Public Library

Best library ever. If you have little ones they will want to come all the time. Plenty of book and toys for kiddos. And the library offers to many programs and fun activities. I am beyond grateful that places like this exist. Thank you to all who work here to make it a fun and safe place

II love that the Tempe Public Library allows you to reserve books online and have them pulled for you. Typically, I just walk in, check in my books (which is an easy and fully automated process—no interaction necessary), grab my holds, check out, and leave. Super efficient! This time, I decided to browse a bit and was pleasantly surprised. They have a huge wall of staff recommendations and displays featuring trending or viral topics, which makes discovering new reads really fun. I also stopped by the Connections Café to try their coffee—unfortunately, it was a letdown. $7 for a 16oz cold brew that wasn’t great. Cute little spot to sit and read, but I’d skip the coffee. One of the best parts? They sell used books for just $0.25 to $0.50, including large print and regular editions—a steal

I visited the library online and in person I was impressed by the building architect and it's catalog. After I received my library card I returned to my vehicle for a conference call I parked on the back row where there were only a few other cars. Within two minutes of parking two scam artist approach my vehicle wanting $9 to go to the airport. I rolled my window up an moved further down. The two scam artist stayed near the parking space. Withing a minute I noticed a homeless man and a bike/cart combo ,I'm backed up to the wall near the street . While on my conference call another person came to the parking lot to their sun faded vehicle he starts holding his phone up towards me.Iexited my vehicle to look around as I sensed something was wrong . Low and behold the man with the cart is

I love this library! They have so much to offer for all ages. A great place to browse, read, gather for various events they host and more. The Hold section is super convenient near the front checkout for folks who browse online. Self checkout is easy and fast. The little store upfront has rock bottom prices on books for all ages and interests.

Tempe Public Library 📚 - finest library ! There’s so many good things about this library! I have found the staffs helping people with their queries nicely. The kid’s story telling hours are our favourite ones. interestingly, the public library offers free culture passes(one per a week, valid for 2 adults) to members which could be used to visit places like Raid Zoo in Tucson, Phoenix art museum and many other places. It’s a great thing and I appreciate this community service.
