We borrowed mechanical pencils from the front desk and returned them when we were done. Thank you!

I decided to take the trip out there it is about 25 minutes away from the Fresno fig Garden branch library it is a very small library in a parking lot that is behind a store. To my surprise when I went inside there was a lot of room inside the library it was very clean and neatly organized . There was a very nice library in there who printed some bookmarks on her 3-D printer and gave one to me and my son. There was a young man in there making some arts and crafts and there was a children section. we also happen to use the restroom which was well-maintained nice and clean. As a mom who has to study sometimes I may use this library more quiet place to study because it's not as busy as the Fresno library usually is. It's also in a nicer part of town and it was easy to get to you just have to keep your eyes open for the library because it's in the furthest corner in the back of the lot. The nice lady at the counter was a younger woman and she showed us her 3d printer and that it printed its own replacement part!

I was welcomed when I walked in and asked if I needed assistance, which was nice -- although that friendly greeting hasn't always happened on past visits. I was looking for Louis L'Amour books as a gift for my husband, and they pointed me in the right direction. I also browsed through the kids' section for a bit, though I didn't end up finding anything this time. Overall, it's a 2 story shop with lots to explore. Worth stopping in if you enjoy the hunt for used books.

It's always friendly and helpful. The selection for psychology and philosophy is the BEST, better than a handful of libraries I've experienced in Fresno. The value is the BEST in town as well. I always spend $5.50-7 for a book. This is legit my favorite place! The most time I spent here was 3 hours! I love the square, walk around, upstairs- the showcase, the furniture & few chairs to read before purchasing. I love the atmosphere of this place. I will forever patronize here, as long as I'm in town or visiting.

I took my 3 children and it was giving Gotham outside of the building. Inside is nice and cozy. Relaxing quiet environment. The kids area is spacious and has great book selection and fun crafts to enjoy. My teens were able to explore the anime section, and there were chess and checkers to play. There were also puzzles out to play as well. The library is full of interesting books, magazines, cds, dvds, etc. I would recommend to set aside at least 2 hours to enjoy the full library. The staff are weird and watched us like we're going to steal, although the library is full of unhoused transients, and we were just a family enjoying the library. Very uncomfortable and not welcoming! Will we be back? Yes, because family fun in Fresno is limited and we do enjoy the library. Can they improve the experience, definitely. Also the chairs were mostly gross and they could definitely use an update.

I have…read morenot been going and purchasing books since I found this place and have taken my kids to check out some books as well. We usually spend about 45 minutes to an hour inside just browsing around... If you have a library card you can rent up to 25 books and keep them for 3 weeks! I don't need 25 books I usually get myself one and get 3 for my son so he can read and use them for his homework. I have been paying for parking using my phone it's about 1.50 for my hour using the parking meter. There are a lot of homeless outside but they give out smiles and don't bother nobody at all but if it's your first time there it can be a little nerve wracking. The few books I have rented were brand new. I did spill a little bit of coffee on it and I told them when I tuned it on and they said it was still in great condition. My son loves the kid selection and even he gets excited to read. Don't go out and buy a book when you can rent it from out own Fresno library

There are also quite a few people facing homelessness that stay inside for long periods of time, but everything is still really quiet and peaceful. There is always a security guard at the front door.
