A library with a…read moremall I've been to a lot of libraries but I've never seen one located in a mall before. Actually it's located in Market Square but it looks like a mall to me. I was surprised to see a huge library right in the middle of all the stores. The library is modern and has some great wifi and lots of computers inside. Things are organized a bit different than I am use to but this is Canada, they do things their own way. This library has probably the coolest entrance of any library I have ever been in. You actually walk in between two huge, fake books. And once inside there are lots of unusual art and displays scattered about. Subtle but definitely cool stuff. As my Yelp friend Robert from Portland, OR, likes to point out, weird can be really tiresome and stupid when it is forced and contrived. But when weird just happens without trying it can be so cool. This library is weird, from the huge books that you walk through at the entrance, to the girl floating by on balloons in the mall at the front of the library. Everything about this library is a bit different. This library is just so weird but in a very, very cool way.

After moving to Calgary, I feel proud to say that my favourite library is the Saint John Free…read morePublic Library. You dont need to pay an annual fee. There is no fee to use the computers. There is no fee to take a class. ITS AWESOME! Its right on the waterfront in the uptown - so easy to get to by either transit or driving. I have easily spent 3 hours just browsing. And more often then not they have a silent auction selling local artists work! Wheather you need to jump on a computer and print your resume or your looking to relax in a comphy chair with the new book you found, this is by far the best library. I would even say - best in canada.

This is a great library in the small town of Oromocto…read more It is well organized and has a wide variety of materials for all ages. It offers children programs as well as programs for teenagers and adults. The summer time is an especially popular season for the library and it can get quite busy. The staff here is friendly and willing to help patrons find whatever they need. There are a few public computers to use as well as the option for faxing and photocopying for a small fee. I was lucky enough to work here for one summer on a student work study term and I loved it. It convinced me to take library studies after University. I have been taking library science courses for 3 terms now and it is a great experience. I moved away shortly after working here but I highly recommend this library to those living in Oromocto because it is a great resource and a wonderful place to go on a rainy day.

This library and its welcoming staff, is a haven of history, community, great historic and…read morecontemporary art. One day, the lost volume of the Eastport Sentinel will show up. The head Librarian, Dana Chevalier, is an astonishing pastel artist, calligrapher, fountain of local history. She is knowledgeable about fiction and literature. Built through a bequest of the inventor of the Peavey hook, revolutionising lumber movement in swift rivers before he ventured west to invent the industry changing concentric ringed flour silo that saved countless more lives from explosions and fires in the grain business of the Twin Cities. Both Peavey Industries and Peavey library continue to thrive. As you enter the building from Water Street, the desk faces you with a choice of a serene oval reading room to the left, stacks and historic materals to the. right, ot a dedicated children's reading room straight ahead. Outside ,a quiet outdoor reading plaza sits on the left of the building, an historic bandstand to the right on the village green. Resist rhe temptation to stroke the bald marble pate of Mr. Peavey's sculptured bust on the hearth of the gas fireplace as you sink into my favorite leather reading chair and take a satisfied breath in a very special library.

It's been a while since I've been to Fredericton, New Brunswick, but I have a lot of good memories…read morethere that I wouldn't trade for anything. I remember when my mom came to visit me when I lived in residence, and we ended up playing pool on the ground floor. I lived on the 7th floor, the quiet floor, at McLeod House and I enjoyed it very much. One of the things I liked was that the campus was so close by and I used to walk everywhere. It was convenient. I used to go to the Irving Library a lot and I had classes in different buildings there. Many of the buildings were constructed in the same style, with red - orange bricks and a metal roof. It gives it a feeling of being in New England to a certain extent. Many of my teachers were really good. A few weren't that great, but I'd rather focus on the positives rather than the negatives. I had a 3.3 GPA, which is a B+, so I did well in many of my courses. I wrote a lot of research papers and either was reading or writing for most of the time that I was there. I used MLA style which was a nice, straightforward system, which I enjoyed a lot. UNB gets 5 stars. I'm proud of my school and my Bachelor of Arts degree. Take care UNB.
