Cute little library in the heart of Sugarhouse. I came here for a La Leche League meeting, which…read morewas held in the basement conference room. I was really impressed by the meeting space. It was large and spacious, very clean, and plenty of chairs. There also appeared to be an overhead projector available. The library is small but has all the basics and the staff is super helpful. They have a decent sized kids section. If you follow your google maps GPS to get here just know there is little to no parking along highland. It's better to park in the shopping center parking lot, which is where the library front doors face anyway.

I adore this library! It is super historic and you can tell! It also has the date it was made in…read moreand I think it's the 1800's. It's in Sugarhouse and a smaller more intimate branch. Definitely not nearly on the same page as the downtown public library. Although you can use the same card for it because they are affiliated. I've returned books here that I checked out downtown and they're very helpful here. Also lots of resources when you walk in the front such as City Weekly but also local non profits that helps out in different areas. A really wonderful library that is just the cutest most historic library I've seen yet! I wouldn't be surprised if it was the oldest library in Utah.

The modern design with all the glass and sky high ceilings is genuinely spectacular and makes the space feel open and energizing instead of quiet and stuffy. When I visited on a Saturday morning it was busy, which was actually really nice to see, with people reading, studying, and casually surfing the internet. It felt alive in the best way. I also enjoyed wandering through the different floors where there were interesting exhibits and old books on display that made browsing feel more like exploring. Add in the great views of the valley from the windows and it's easy to imagine spending a lot of time here if I lived nearby.

Free parking is located on the lower level, you can validate your ticket inside the library. Very clean bathrooms, customer service was awesome. This is probably one the best library that Ive visited. I normally visit a library when I'm in larger cities, its alot of fun. The library has different floors, beautiful art work, live working bee area, stores, food and a sunny rooftop! I visited during the summer months, so the views- mountains were unbelievable. I highly recommend a visit to all!

It's a bit like the Cheers bar--"where everybody knows your name." Staff pride themselves on customer service and will always take the time to get to know you and help meet your needs. WiFi is free and fast, with no password needed. There's one small study room you can reserve, a few tables, a small play area for the kids, and 18 public computers. If they don't have what you need, they'll happily find it for you. Be sure to check out all the fun programs and games offered as well.

It's modern in that clean, beautiful way where you suddenly feel like a better person just by walking inside. I had time before the show started, so I wandered around pretending I had my life together, which honestly was very believable in that lighting. The staff was so sweet and genuinely helpful. Like not just "here's your answer" helpful, but "I love my job and also hope you have a great day" helpful. Rare and deeply appreciated. There are big windows everywhere, comfy seats, little pockets of calm where you can read, think, or journal about how magical the place is. I would come here even without a performance, just to sit and pretend I'm writing my novel or about to run into someone who's about to change my life. Also, yes, there's a rooftop patio, and yes, it's as dreamy as it sounds. If I lived closer, I'd be here all the time, probably with a lavender tea, trying not to romanticize everything but definitely failing.

No just stares me down between the bookshelf so rude so unprofessional and weird stalking me through bookshelves to get my child to be quiet. Not just that but it was very clear that as soon as my child calmed down, the worker left. It's stressful enough as a mom having your kid cry in public let alone someone staring you down while you're trying to calm your child is rude uncomfortable and NOT OKAY ! Never going back ever worse place on top of that smells like homeless piss and is so small

this one star review is for the people of the Utah utes who come to enjoy this fantastic library…read more Why the FUCK, like actually why the FUCK, would you replace the very fantastic and spacious marketplace with a tiny kiosk Starbucks. First of all Starbucks is 3 dollars on average more expensive for a coffee than the marketplace, this is especially important for college kids who are studying all the time and need some caffeine and they don't have time to work all time so they are broke. Not to mention the food is wayyyy cheaper and affordable, especially for a small snack. NO one wants a 10 dollar 1 square inch breakfast sandwhice. bullshit. Second, the marketplace is quick! it took me about 5 min to walk down to the marketplace from anywhere, get what I want, and be drinking my coffee with a snack in my hand heading back to actual important shit. Starbucks has this stupid mobile order, so not only if you walk up and order something that will take 10 min to get on its own, theres 20 fucking people in front of you with orders of their own. I walked up to a nice lady and asked how long she had been waiting and she had said half an hour and still counting and she mobile ordered.might as well just fucking DoorDash a coffee. Other than that money grabbing decision by this university this library is great. screw your Starbucks gimme my marky back.

It kind of had a venerable look when I attended the school more than a half decade ago. It now looks like it has caught up with the times. The interior was modern with a computer lab on the first floor. Spent a lot of time here for projects and homework. Now it seems more cozy and even a better place to study, though that lab is gone I see. Perhaps a change of the times given the laptop/mobile/Internet world we live in. Still the printed word holds academic resonance and Marriott is the place to gather that material.
