Absolutely love this library! The technology collection is phenomenal and I've found so many rare programming books here. The staff is incredibly helpful and the reading pods are perfect for focused work.

The digital library access alone is worth the membership. I can access O'Reilly books and technical resources instantly. Wish they had more weekend hours, but otherwise perfect.

Great library with excellent resources. Sometimes the waitlists for popular tech books can be long, but that's expected. Love the new quiet pods!
