    Palmdale City Library

    Lived in Palmdale for 3 years now…read more I personally felt racially profiled, the only time I go to this library is to simply to print the files I need for projects, a white homeless man (Big 50 year old man) came up to me who I seen while working security at one of my jobs and made snaky weird comments and got close to my face. Me and him got into a loud verbal altercation, he was in my personal space and he began to yell when I told him to back up. We yelled at each other until Library Staff came and told us to leave. However, this blonde female staff worker said something to homeless individualbut focused her attention on me. The homeless individual walked away while they proceed to tell me to leave. Another Hispanic/White female with her Disabled Daughter (probably Autistic) said I was rude because I told her to move and tried to side with the homeless dude (Lady was glued to her phone and not paying attention to her "Disabled" daughter" ) As I was printing my copy and The Director Robert Shupe came along with 5 staff surrounding me as I was printing my paper I calmly tried to explain to Robert the backstory and he cut me off to say "I don't care about the backstory" after getting the print I needed. I complied and proceed to exit the structure. Robert wanted to talk to me out side which I agreed to and I understand their policy and keeping peace, but I felt like the blonde female staff worker was bias because how did she let the homeless individual just walk away to hide. My mom came and talked to. He reassured there was no profiling but I doubt it by the female's demeanor towards me. Robert appreciated me explaining the backstory (privately not publicly) and situation is in progress partially resolved. I do want to report the female staff worker due to her selective enforcement and potential bias of the situation. This is why recording and camera are appropriate evidence to protect yourself. I have nothing against homeless people but having 1 female security guard and not a male especially not armed, Seems pretty risky. I am about advancement but city needs to stop being cheap with the safety of others.

    This is a very nice library with plenty of free parking on the lot…read more There's security in the front. There's plenty of seats and outlets to charge your devices. They also have flyers about upcoming events.

    This library rocks. It is a state-of-the-art facility, gorgeous and a pleasure to visit. Not only…read moreis there free wi-fi, the building is designed to be welcoming, user-friendly and to facilitate research and learning. Computer lab? Yes. Super cute children's room? You betcha. Friendly helpful librarians? You got it. Fireplace? Uh-huh. As you can see in the pictures, this library was very well designed to make a beautiful and calming atmosphere. Lucky patrons! Everyone and anyone in this area should come here as much as possible. Congratulations, Kern County, on doing something very, very right.

    This library is great! It offers a lot of services and it is always clean and organized. The staff…read moreis always very nice and helpful, except for 2 people, but I just try to avoid them. I don't need any bad energy so that's what I do when I go there. My son loves the library as well. They have fun stuff going on for kids and adults regularly. I enjoy going there for books or whenever I need to print something. One complaint I do have is the 2 staff member's costumer service skills. One is a manager, and that's really unfortunate because that says a lot about them. I tried filing a complaint and I got treated like my complaint was irrelevant and like I was lying or exaggerating. Marie will NOT listen and will not believe what you are saying. It is a COUNTY job! Train your employee to be more professional and you won't have to deal with complaints!
