Toronto Public Library - College/Shaw Branch - Toronto, Ontario

Good place to study, the internet works well, and the direct view of streetcars on a snowy day makes the work a bit more enjoyable. There is a little noise since the tables are too close to the entrance.

Limited seating and it can noisy because there is no separate children's area. The staff can be loud as well and sometimes there is issues with the wifi. Despite this, it is still a decent spot to come read/study as I do often here and it is fun watching the streetcars pass by on College St.

Compared to other Toronto Public Libraries this one is quite small but in a weird way I like it. I am near by and so I just love growing up near this library.
It depends on the staff member, some of them are super sweet and others are just working and don't really say anything to you unless needed.
I wish I knew the names of the very kind staff there, so next time I will ask.

At this library there is a childrens sections. Young children and older children. There is also a grade school section and young adult section of books. As well as an adult part of the library as well.
So there is a wide range of books for all age groups.

There is a washroom. Which I have never been in, so I can't say how the washroom is. But there is one.
There is also a photocopier, computers and tables to sit at for reading or working on your laptop or other shenanigans.

Overall I personally find this a cozy little library!

A smaller library, but in my experience, more likely to have good seating available than many of the larger, busier locations. Staff and the security guard on duty are helpful and attentive, and because of the small size of the library they are aware of everything going on and will immediately address issues (such as sources of excess noise). For this reason it is my go-to library when I need to study or do work on my laptop.

The loudest person in the library is the front desk staff. Small library which is fine but not suitable if you want to study or read in a quiet place. Very noisy, mostly because of people who work here.

It seems they never clean their desk, which is really disgusting.

It would be great if they add a second floor to study and work
