Edmonton Public Library - Castle Downs

A great library, staff are awesome. They are very patient and always willing to help you find the right resource. The selection of books and media is great. There is an area for the children at the front stocked with toys and small couches to sit on and enjoy a book with mom or dad. This area can get pretty noisy at times but this is part of having so many visitors every day. What I like the most about this library is the view from the large windows at the back. Sitting at the study tables (that offer outlets to plug in devices and laptops) and looking at the lake is great. What's more, it's never busy at the back. Very nice place to finish an assignment or read a book. The best for me.

Free Internet, Free Computer Access, Free Books, Movies and Games? Yes that will get 5 stars from me.

Went there one Saturday, it's full packed and the computers are busy......with kids playing online games. It's noisy and all of them enjoying the online games and chatting with each other. Kids section also have adults sitting there occupying the computer and it's just 5 or 6 computer. My son gets very excited but nobody pays attention to him but just asking him not to disturb them playing games. We have to leave because the people working there said my son too disturbing. Overall, disappointed because don't feel like a library but an online game centre. Not a great place for study. Not sure if any other days.

I'm impressed with your staff Elton who helped me get reset-up with my old account and re-issued a new library card. Elton re-acquainted me with what's available at the library as well as on your epl website Thanks Elton for your excellent service!

STAFF are amazing and super helpful. Great place for kids as there are all sorts of programs books and computers to keep them entertained. Really good resources for adults too! We are truly lucky to have such a wonderful library in the North end!
