So happy to live near a wonderful library with access to a ton of books and toddler friendly…read moreactivities! Exterior is beautiful and modern, inside was welcoming with friendly staff, versatile reading resources and rooms, and a weekly Saturday family storytime hour. Brought my toddler to the Saturday storytime and it was a very popular event. There were many families in attendance and Miss Katie was very engaging and fun with songs, dances, and storytelling with the littles. We perused the library and there was a rocket ship playroom and troves of books for kids. There are also a few outdoor areas for eating, reading, breaks. No food or drinks are allowed inside. Will definitely return for the toddler friendly events. Also, get a library card and get access to the Discover and Go free museum opportunities. You can also borrow ebooks and audiobooks via the Libby app.

Nice little library - about the same size as most of the CCC county libraries. Overall selection…read moreisn't great if you're looking for something specific but still a nice library - best to order something and have it sent here (off the website). The Pinole library is going down for a year - so this will be the library I will be getting books sent to.

Gone are the days when one can find a quiet place to sit at the library at any time. But I get it, it's promotes community gatherings and there are no alternative facility to host the concerts. I'll be sure to check on Benicia's Event calendar before visiting the library.

I brought my baby to storytime at the Rodeo library and it was such a wonderful and welcoming…read moreexperience! In a world where there are very few baby friendly spaces, the librarian made us all feel valued and accepted.

Lately I been coming to this library due to how the inside and outside of the building is…read morewonderful. You would not believe this library was caught on fire. Since the fire and re-opening the library still attracts people to come inside to check out books, studied, or nap (I seen someone catching up sleep but dare not to snore). The librarian was polite on informing what been going on with the library since it re-opening. I was informed about events the library are holding. I have one good question: why is this the only library that provides ear plugs?

It's a nice cute small library but I'm not sure if libraries have changed since when I used to go…read morebut everyone including the libraries here are just talking at full volume, people are talking on their phones, some were even blasting music loudly on their headphones to the point where I could hear them 10 feet+ away. It's not a great place to study or focus but if you're just looking for a place to hang out it's great.

Why am I giving Pinole Library a 5 star review...the librarians are helpful when I needed help. I been going here since the 1990s. When I was a student at Pinole Valley I tend to hang out at the library while waiting for my mom to pick me up. Since Hercules Library open the Pinole Library still gets people to come inside. Keep up the good work Pinole Library

It's been years since I have been here and learned that the kids library that was on the first…read morefloor (last time I remembered) had been moved to the second floor with the adult section. It is very open and spacious with tables with computers and chairs spread throughout. There is also an area in the back for kids and even a play area. Self check out kiosks in the front which were very interesting and quick to use. My mini me and her baby came to get some books and have a little fun in the kids area before we headed home. The little one enjoyed her time exploring and choosing books too. I need to come back and renew my library card and see about checking some items out.

Nice and cozy little library with friendly staff. Gives the "old library" feel reminiscent of the…read morelibraries of my youth. Lacks the bells and whistles of the Pleasant Hill Library and the Walnut Creek Library but honestly, if you want to spend some time with your littles to really focus on studying, reading and sit down activities - - this branch is more conducive that as there are no outdoor spaces and lots of fancy toys to lure them away from "study" time. LOL. Love public libraries and general and I'm glad to find a hidden gem where we can have our child experience the classic "let's stay quiet and read" library feel. It's good to have a variety for our littles. And yes, the Stuffie Summer Camp is 100% - - Whoever thought of that is *chef's kiss*

My first visit was last week. It was a wonderful experience. There is a young man who works there…read more I didn't get his name, but I believe he wears his hair pulled back in a ponytail. This young man is so polite so helpful and it made my visit a great success. Fast-forward two days ago, I returned. I had very important documents that needed to be uploaded and very time sensitive. On this day, the employee that was working was deep into a conversation with her coworker. She acted bothered by me asking a question. I am old. I am 55 years old. I am not from today's generation. I am not computer savvy and I need help. Actually I needed a lot of help because I needed to know how to work the printer, attach photos etc. She proceeded to give me two-three word instructions and acted upset because she had to get back to her conversation. I am 55 years old. I am not savvy when it comes to computers. I also understand this is not a computer class. There were three clerks on duty at the time. I don't know. I just feel that if the roles were reverse, I would want to help somebody and feel great that I was able to do so. I felt embarrassed by this. My documents are not yet finished It's a beautiful atmosphere i. I just wish she would have made me feel comfortable
