Laura B. • April 5, 2016Read in the grass near the gazebo, play frisbee, or let your kids go nuts on the playground. Right next to the library and the trail!

Lisa T. • November 30, 2013Great kids library, and lots of tot activities
E W. • July 19, 2011Fantastic sweet little library. Free box outside has good stuff if you're the collage-making type. Good selection, especially if you use teh interwebs to request books ahead of time...
Andrew D. • February 2, 2011Please consider donating DVDs to the Temescal Library. They will issue you a tax-deducible receipt. They really need DVDs.

The Grio • February 1, 2011This is the beginning of the Black Panther Legacy Tour. They have 18 or so destinations around Oakland that describe the early days and evolution of the Black Panther Party.
DJ A. • October 19, 2012Tons of open space and comfortable seating areas. Bring your laptop because there's a timed limit on how long you can use their computers. Also, checkout their e-books on the library's website.
Tim D. • December 25, 2014Bright, comfortable, good for concentration. They have the nicest armchairs
Chrystie S. • August 6, 2013And if you don't have kids please be considerate of those of us teaching our kids how to act in a library.
Jennifer Y. • July 10, 2016Limited seating but rarely full. A wonderful library in the neighborhood!
Bennett W W. • November 16, 2014One of the librarians I've encountered here in July was friendly. Great spot for a library!
Kathleen L. • December 14, 2013In love with this library, always so consistently quiet. Major con are the hours--wish it was open later on the weekends.
Paul H. • February 23, 2016This place is awesome. Recommended to me by my VCOM professor Hogan. Bigger than Dublin, quieter than the LPC library. If you're using a laptop or reading a book, use the small chairs, they're comfy.
