Most of the staff is nice, one of the female supervisors is so rude, but I saw her mostly over the summer during the children's program events. There are a few other staff members that are super kind and helpful. Two actually worked at the prize hand out for the summer reading program. Those programs are two of the shining stars of the library. The summer childrens program events are great and so is the summer reading program. There are also several reading programs throughout the year. And lastly on the pro list is the Animaker space. The one con with that is when they have the program later in the day during the fall and winter, it is not ideal because you get out after dark and it is a little sketch in the parking area. The biggest annoyance though is the electronic book return. DO NOT USE IT! I knew one of my son's books was due soon, but we do not belive near the library, so I put it in my car so I would have it if any of my errands put me near the library. I ended up having to pick up the finished Animaker project my kiddos made so I stopped by and dropped off the book in the electronic return. It had given me issues in the past and I had started to take pictures of the return list that populated on the screen, but I was in a rush and didn't think of it this time. I left and didn't think twice. About a week later something reminded me of the book and I decided to check my son's account to make sure it was checked in correctly and of course it was still on his account. I called the library and they put a note on the account and renewed the book. They have a process to double check all possible areas. The only issue with that is that the book had been transferred from another SBC library when we requested it so it would not be put back on the shelf at the Fontana library. I ended up having to call the other library and they had to check their shelves and it was not there. I waited another week and called again. The Fontana library staff member sounded like she saw a helpful note on the account but then changed her tone and went back to the same speech about the procedure they have to check for lost books. I resigned myself to waiting for a notice of a fine for the missing book. A few weeks passed but there wasn't a fine and the book was still on my account. This was about 2 1/2months ago at this point and I just checked the account again last week and the book was no longer on the check out list and there was not a fine. I called just to double check and the staff member said he can't see anything on the account, no fine or notes or missing book. So I guess after all that time they finally found the book and checked it in. It was so frustrating bc it was literally the only book I turned in that day, I was able to give them the time and date and they couldnt do anything. I had to wait more than 2 months for a resolution bc their electronic book return doesn't work properly. When I I initially mentioned the issues, I was told that the electronic book return messes up sometimes.

She and I talked and it was an easy conversation and she explained how Rialto is part of the San Bernardino County library system and she was helpful in explaining that if I need any books ordered, that they can get it for the asking. In addition she let me marinate on the thought that they allow a person to check out fifty books. I was like "Five Zero???" She laughed and said yes. In addition, she explained information I would need to have if I needed to use the computer (which I did) and if I needed to print out something (which I did), that it would cost $0.10/page. Sweet!! I went to my car, dug into my cup holder for my loose change and I was in business lol. I got my pretty library card, some stuff printed out and that was that. Overall, it was a nice experience...

It just screams greedy for money. Make the parking for a public library free! Hopefully they change this soon.

I like this branch because it's connected to so many other one's in the Riverside county, if there is a book I can't find in this location one or many of the other branches will have it and all I have to do is put a hold on it. It will be brought over to Glen Avon and I'll pick it up. I mostly do all my searching and renewals online.

Who somehow got Chaffey listed on a 'Top 10 public swimming pools near Rancho Cucamonga' if Chaffey seems not to have gone back to offering their pool to the public like they used to back when the giant pool was actual two giant-ish pools. I think you paid a couple dollars or something and got to use it until you tired out from it. It was great. Now I can't find anywhere with straight forward public pay-for swimming, and it doesn't help that the lists are full of places that have no reason to be on such a list, unless the goal is a devious one meant to screw with the heads of people like me. I have neighbors with pools, but I honestly don't like the idea of using anyone's pool that I'm neighbors with. Just don't feel comfortable with it, and I could try to explain why, but it's a personal thing that makes sense to me, and perhaps might or might not to you. It's too bad Chaffey probably underutilizes their pool now. How much pool action could they possibly have in an official capacity? Like 10% of the pool at most? That's such a waste.

This bookstore is located less than a block away from Riverside's famous Mission Inn…read more The store features two separate sections, each with its own entrance: one located on Main Street and the other accessible via a walkway along the side of the store. The Main Street entrance takes you into a store that has some books but mostly gift items and knick-knacks. I popped in and out of here quickly because I mainly wanted to check out used books. Those can be found by going to the side entrance down the walkway. The used book store is very well organized by categories, and books in each category are shelved alphabetically, making everything easy to find if you are after something specific. Some categories are far better stocked than others. The category I was most interested in was a bit sparse so I didn't end up purchasing anything this day. On the pathway to the used books entrance is a kiosk where you can leave a poem. Cool idea. If you like a good bookstore this will be a place you'll enjoy spending a little time browsing.
