Burnaby Public Library

Vibes : 10/10nThis is the place I love most in the city. Studying at the desks here and doodling when I got bored will always be the memories I cherish. I hope they add more power outlets and fix the broken ones though. The librarians are so helpful too.

Recently, I've noticed a significant increase in the number of visitors to the library, which doesn't seem to coincide with student midterm exams, a typically busy period. In the past, arriving before 1pm guaranteed a good spot, but today, arriving just an hour after opening, I struggled to find any available space. This surge in patronage is surprising and reflects a broader trend that's not just limited to Burnaby but perhaps across Canada. It's wonderful to see more people utilizing public resources, though it does present challenges in maintaining the quiet, accessible space we've come to appreciate. Additionally, with the peak in visitor numbers during the afternoon, I've found that the WiFi connectivity significantly suffers, impacting those of us relying on internet access for our work or studies.
