This library is by far my favourite library to visit. It is 2 floors(with a middle part with about 3 chairs) and has a huge quiet study area on the top floor. The top floor also had study rooms which you can take out for groups of 2 or more people as well as a computer and printing station. The bottom floor has an area for magazines and a teen study area as well as a kids area. They have a huge selection of DVDs, books, magazines and perhaps more items which I haven’t had the chance to look for. Overall, Pierre Berton is truly one of the best libraries around the area and they have community events which are entertaining. My only complaint would be that although most of the staff are great and very helpful, a few of them have come off consistently rude(maybe just having a bad day?) But for the most part, it is the perfect place to study.

All libraries should have a huge«Silent Study» area like Pierre Berton Resource Library. I was a little worry when I saw the High School across the street from the library and all these students hanging out in the front… I just want some peace and quiet when I go to library. not to deal with screaming toddlers or teens. Even after school hour, this library feels like a library. Quiet and peaceful, even I was whispering. The silent study area has the back has huge windows: floor to ceiling letting the natural sunlight filtering in… Free Wifi! Electric outlets! I can definitely hang out here for awhile…
