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!

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

I have been coming here since January 2013 and they're always willing to help me find the legal resources I need. Inside the library there is a public computer where various electronic resources can be tapped to better serve the community.

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.

Now, all these years later, I'm using Gillis again while Fig Garden branch is renovated. I preorder all of my books and DVDs, so I had to change the location to Gillis. It was a smooth transition, and the staff has been very kind in showing me how they "do library." Fresno County libraries all have outstanding personnel. Just ask, and they are willing to help. The parking lot is small so that is one drawback.

The librarian read 3 books that were part of the Lunar Year genre and in between had some mini interactive song activities. Love that my daughter participated. At the end of storytime they crafted a Snake and that was definitely my 3yo favorite. It's nice that the public libraries provide these kinds of free activities for the kids. My daughter did a great job listening though at times it was a bit challenging to hear. Would love to join in another Storytime event. Plenty of free parking.
