A nice building, not very big but comfortable and filled with good vibes...the friendly employees set the atmosphere...bring a thank you and a smile with you to share even to the friendly security who sits by the door and will return a hi to you.

A small, quiet library tucked away in a lovely Bywater⚜ location. Librarians rule! Staff extremely helpful and courteous. I attend a free Yoga class (offered by the Library) in the shady courtyard next to the facility. 10⭐s

Helpful librarians. Playful neighborhood kids looking for a place to beat the summer heat. Friendly locals. Spent a couple hours here while I was in town. Greatful to experience real life in NOLA. Wonderful place.

Cute local library, great for borrowing books. Hard to work here in afternoons, little kids are using computers for Minecraft and can be a bit distracting.
