Edmonton Public Library - Jasper Place

One of the better libraries in the city. Not too busy, not too noisy, but it's a bit small. Interesting architecture and just the right amount of natural light. A good place to study or work. Bring headphones if you need 100% concentration, but its a nice comfortable public atmosphere with a little bit of background noise. I think I like this library for working more than studying. This library in particular has minimal sound dampening so you can definitely hear conversations across the library. Some reviews mention that it's too noisy and I would agree depending on the time. Fridays during the daytime are nice and quiet.

The environment is just right to read, and study. Also with your EPL card you can enjoy one hour of internet. If you are learning English you are in the righ place as well.

A Beautiful Library that provides a Great work environment with many books and resources, However, It can extremely noisy, and most of the librarians, including the Manager can be very rude, refusing to ask anybody to quiet down. I've recorded the Decibel range to fall between 85-150 at times, and the librarians argue that it's a "public space" so they refuse to do anything. However, some of the librarians can be extremely kind and they know how to do their job! I recommend these few individuals are promoted.

Pretty big space. Built in similar exquisite architectural design like all other EPL across the city.

The shape of this building is very interesting. As a library it has many books, and interactive learning center for children. It even has a printer if you don't have one at home.

Such a beautiful spacious building! People can chat without being to distracting to other readers, the upstairs level is awesome to just hang out in.

Very nice, clean and organised environment, well it is a library after all. Anyway they have pleasant staff always ready to help. Also they have lots of virtual activities and competitions to keep the little ones occupied all summer.

Last week when I was there it was incredibly noisy and crowded, lots of junior high kids. I still managed to find a relatively quiet spot and with ear buds they magically disappeared. Still got some reading done.

People should know that library staff were very courteous, very patient and understanding. Very helpful and kind. Any question I had was answered nicely. This is the ideal library. Ideal location and will definitely be coming back for more books. In terms of size however, it does feel smaller than other epl locations but they can get you anything you need from every other location anyway. Give two good thumbs up for this epl location.

This is a really good library. I always go here to check out books or study. I wish they had more desks because there's usually a lot of people who go here to do work. Overall, it's a relaxed place to go to. The staff are nice and there's plenty of different types of books. They also have programs that people can participate in and socialize with others.
