    Super peaceful place to study. Tons of parking. Great location across from a park to take a quick walk for a study break. Such a gem.

    Came to the library today and they are closed all through Feb 2022, sign says "Closed for facility project" sidewalk service is available. Which means you can order online and pick up at the library..

    Time to relax and read a book

    I came by on a Saturday morning and students were sitting quietly at the tables studying. The library feels very spacious, I wish I had the extra free time to sit and relax without being rushed.

    Just some of the DVD's available for loan from the Montebello Library.

    Disappointed. Never find any new or old books I'm looking for. Their hours are ridiculous.

    How ADA accessible is this library? Is there an elevator? All I see are these incredibly long steep ramps. A bit daunting for someone using a rolling walker or a wheelchair.

    It's only one floor, so no elevators

    I came here to East LA Library where they were holding a course via ServSafe-in order to be able to…read morerun a small business out of my kitchen legally! The Micro Enterprise Home Kitchen Operation, or MEHKO program now allows those with the entrepreneurial bug (and what they hope is a talent) to cook food from their kitchen. In my place, all I will do (at least for now) is make stuffed Bell Peppers... a la the name, The Holy Bell Pepper! The road to being in good graces with your city runs through LA County, so why not take the free (albeit all day) course (and the actual final test) to get the paper trail going for free! About 18/20 with reservations showed up for the class, with the final test consisting of 90 questions with you being allowed to miss as many as 30 to get the ServSafe Manager certification. And guess what? I may have missed 29, but I know I did not miss 30! After some serious memorization and seeing things through the lens of a safety inspector as opposed to a cook (my initial and major problem in the first round), I was able to quickly pivot. And while I won't know for sure for another week or so, I feel fairly good about passing the ServSafe Manager certification course. Wish me luck!

    Small yet modern library that offers so much in a convenient location…read more I love the self-check out counter where you can easily check out items and head out the door. The library counter is nearby in case you need a librarian to assist you. Free copies (maximum of 10 per day) are also available for library members. There is a small fee for each additional copy. You can also log on to a desktop for a maximum of one hour. Ask the librarian to open the bathroom for you because it's locked. Maybe that's why it's so clean! Plenty of parking behind the library adjacent to the park or the left side of the library in front of the park. Enjoy your visit!

    Personally, libraries are incredible to me and I love them all! One of the reasons I go to Sorensen…read moreis because of the untimed, ample parking available. Unlike other libraries in the area, Sorensen doesn't limit your parking to 2 hours or anything like that. I don't understand how people can get work done or study with peace of mind, having to take all your things and move your car. Another reason I really enjoy Sorensen is the librarians that work there. Everyone is so pleasant and helpful. Although it's a smaller library, they do a wonderful job of keeping the place clean, quiet, and organized. Now, the reason I'm not giving a full 5 stars is because they have a limited selection of certain topics. It's not really their fault, but it'd be nice to have a little bit more. The last reason is because even though their WiFi is great, for some odd reason, I can't use Tik Tok on their WiFi. Other social media is fine but it's only Tik Tok. This is a small issue for me, as I do some work in the social media field. Overall, please go here! It's a wonderful library that you'll enjoy!
