Library Émile-Nelligan

Excellent work space for kids and adults. A great environnement, all colourful which makes it even more interesting.

This library is right next to a school; so better to time trips not during the time the school ends school bus, parents coming to pickup; parking stays full around the school pickup/drop times. Very nicely organized sections for kids and a good selection of English Mangas. Board games are best reserved in advance. Out of the multiple Laval libraries, I would rate Yves Thériault and Multiculturelle to be slightly better than this but the standard Laval biblio features like reserving books, picking a wide variety of books for all ages and comfortable access to video games and board games is absolutely super. This library also has a quiet room that you can meet people, students go in for combine study etc.n2025 May edit: the multiculturelle library is closed but the same contents and same sections telescopes, 3d printer room is moved to the library at the junction of Chomedey and Cardinal.

I wish this place was actually quiet because this library is very accessible to me. However I just know, on weekends especially, there are tons of kids making noise and people talking in the 'quiet' zone which makes it hard to study. In fact, the floor is open and the 'quiet' area is next to the children's area. Some people say that i could just go to another place, but its quite annoying as a busy student to have to spend a lot of time taking multiple buses and/or the metro to and from another library, just for a possibility to study with no distractions.

Nice calm library, the staff is kind. The kid's section is upstairs though, with tables to work at right next to it which doesn't make that much sense.

This is the BEST library in Laval or even Quebec. It has books, computers, printers,meeting rooms, elevator etc EVERYTHING
