Horrible experience would give 0 stars if I could. Let's start by the parking & location. There is…read morenever parking because other people who aren't using the library park there. There is a small field next door & there is some sort of group that meets there & they take up the whole already small parking lot. Not family friendly as there are tons of homelesss people hanging out cussing at each other in the parking lot & smoking in front of the library (sign says no smoking within 20 ft). I took my 2 yr old for playtime that happens on Thursdays, I will not be taking him back. There are 3 rude ladies working the checkout counter at the front of the library & during the hour playtime there is no one supervising the children to mediate if children are fighting over toys or to make sure kids are being supervised by their caregiver. There was little girl that kept yanking toys out of my son's hands while her grandpa was sitting faraway scrolling on his phone. There is also an obnoxious large middle eastern man that takes his older son (even though the playtimes is for 0-5) & his son hogs the trucks & pulls them away from the toddlers & babies & runs around the whole perimeter of the library screaming (again no staff intervenes). When confronting dad he just shrugs and says "I can't do anything about it".

I was fuming like crazy over a wrong Amazon order twice, money issues, family issues, and job…read moreissues. I went here to print out a return sheet for an Amazon order, and instead of 15 cents. I was charged $10. I was mad as hell. I went back here, and one of the female staff members at the information desk was able to explain to me why this happens. She even showed me a sign as proof that this happens to a lot of people, not just me. Her kindness and professionalism quickly melted away my anger. I was thankful for her honesty and I left the library feeling much better. I was so close to writing a 1-star review. But thankfully the staff member was kind enough to explain this to me.

I'm all for public spaces for families and students but this location has created a negative…read moreexperience for me. The study rooms can be reserved so you can have a quiet space to work in. You can only reserve same day, in person. When I called ahead and spoke with them and when I went in person, the full exceptions to the rules were never explained. This library enables people to reserve study rooms hours ahead of your actual time of usage which defeats the "first come, first served" rule. This rule has become "First to show up gets to reserve whatever time of the day". You don't even need a library card to reserve the rooms which doesn't make any sense either. This creates difficulties for working parents and students in school because when you finally get to the library and need 1:1 time, you only have the areas that are crowded with other students or kids who are not in "learning mode". The library also offers tutoring so their only other work space you could possibly work in with your child, has anywhere from 10+ kids all talking and working next to you with no behavior management. Parents are even socializing and using their phones, loudly in the same area. I am paying for a private tutor and looked to this library to use their private study rooms but this was not an option as they let anyone sign up for any time of the day even if that is nowhere near their time. Public spaces in the library are not an answer when they are overcrowded and undermanaged. I have an adult and child library card that I signed up for with this location, this is my local library. Now I will have to travel out of my community to find a center. I most likely will not be returning as this has been so disappointing for weeks now.

I originally called on the phone and a lady told me yeah no problem coming in and you can get it but I guess she was wrong when I got here. Men at the front desk told me no there's about 1500 people waiting for the pass so I was a little letdown that she gave you wrong information . But then Mihn said hold on let me look and instead of just telling me NO ... Mihn went above and beyond he thoroughly searched every library in Orange County to see if anyone else had passes for like 20 minutes he looked trying to help me. He finally figured out a solution and was able to get a pass for me and I was so thankful since I'm on the trip tomorrow to go to a few national Forest park and was trying to save a few bucks. Thanks again Mihn! You have awesome customer service anywhere so delightful and so happy that you're able to figure out a solution! Thanks again!!

Stanton. When I lived there it was known as "Crossroads to Entertainment" because it was a city…read moreyou drove through to get somewhere better, like the beach, Disneyland, or Knott's. I think now it's now famous as the home of Elizabeth Taylor's 7th and last husband. The "City of Stanton" in a governmental sense wasn't bad. They provided a great library and Boys & Girls Club. My first play "California Suite" was at the Stanton Community Center. All of our potholders had come in the mail with the names of Stanton's councilmen and representatives. Did that happen everywhere or just Stanton? As a city, it's okay. I lived in Stanton for almost all of my pre-adult life. It was a quick bus ride to Huntington Beach (sometimes we rode our bikes the 12 miles), and a straight line to Disneyland, just five miles away, close enough that we could see the nightly fireworks that served as an unofficial curfew to come home. I attended Savannah and Mary Perez (both gone). For fun, we had a Golfland, Stanton Village Edwards, annual St. Polycarp festivals, trampoline basketball courts, and the unique Hobby City (now Adventure Land). Though we were regulars at an independent Mario's, the best places to eat in the late 70s were Sundowners (cafeteria style), Me & Ed's (especially after a game), and Pinnacle Peak, where they'd cut off your necktie and hang it, if you were stupid or silly enough to wear one. Like many California cities, it had become populated due to a railway. The LA Interurban ran straight from Watts to Santa Ana in 1905. I, too, would run straight from Watts. Named for LA assemblyman Philip Stanton, the rural area grew and was incorporated in 1911, and although it was then the largest city in OC, Anaheim had planned to use it as their "sewage farm". I think some of the seeds are still there. They dis-incorporated in 1924 to avoid the cost of road building, and re-incorporated in 1950s with the post-war population explosion. Around that time the railway no longer carried passengers, but became my shortcut to junior high. As of 2010, the population was 50% Hispanic, 23% Asian, and 22% white, with a median household of nearly 4 and an income of $51K. Though Safewise included Stanton in their seventh annual "California's 50 Safest Cities" report in 2021, the only time I was "mugged" was two boys taking my newspaper money. It was a little shadier back then. I think the guy running the Olympic torch down Katella (which I witness in 1984) was running a little faster than normal.

I have had the worst and most frustrating experience of my life trying to enroll into this school…read more For months they kept giving me the runaround. I had to call just to get my own student id because they were gonna forget it otherwise. They are so rude over the phone. The first guy blamed me for calling too early to speak to a general counselor, then when I told him that it said the time and I was there five minutes after, he said she was late. I told him I needed to speak to someone about enrolling, he told me that I have to speak to a generals counselor before I can even speak to a majors counselor. So, I went back to their little only chat and waited again. I spoke to her, told her I was doing a career change because I already have multiple degrees. I just wanted to do court reporting. She told me that going to private schools would be an issue because it's different. Okay... then she told me to speak to a major's counselor and to call back the other number because I needed more information. I called back, someone else answered and told me the majors counselor for court reporting wasn't in until the 17th. I said okay and I waited. Called in multiple times today, nobody answered. I go to their online chat, it took forever to speak to someone. They said I need to speak to a majors counselor, give me the link, and I wait more and NOBODY ANSWERS. I hate it here. I started calling and trying to reach someone around 10AM, it's not 11:45 and I still can't reach someone to help me. I have CalVet, which means I can go tuition free. I have my student ID. They keep telling me to just register, but I have no idea which classes to register into. I do not know if I need to transfer GE credits. I do not know how to connect my CalVet benefits to their school. I do not know anything about their process, other than they CLEARLY DO NOT WANT TO HELP ME ENROLL FULLY. It is the most frustrating experience knowing that I could start classes but I can't because nobody there can answer questions. I'm actually over it. If it's this challenging to start school, then my assumption is that they won't be much help when I'm actually fully enrolled and registered. I guess this is part of the reason why there's a shortage of court reporters in California -- because schools like this don't gaf about who wants in. Do not go here if you are a Veteran, spouse of a Veteran, or dependent of a Veteran.
