County of Los Angeles Public Library – Wiseburn Library

This is a great place to come if you want a book. If you are looking for a quiet place to study, though, go somewhere else. There is always at LEAST one parent here loudly yapping and yammering away at their child ad infinitum. Whatever happened to «library voice», «shhh…» and teaching kids to be quiet in libraries? Was that just in the 80’s? Ordinarily, it wouldn’t bother me, but this place is so small, you literally can’t get away from them. There are no secret hideaways, no cozy corners, no out-​of-​the-​way quiet nooks. The ONLY four non-​computer chairs that aren’t directly located in the children’s section are RIGHT NEXT to it, so every shriek that ever put you on the fence about reproducing is there in stereo for your listening pleasure. Yes, even with earplugs. Not a great environment for peace and concentration.
I give it two stars: one for ample parking and another one because, if you are a mother, there is probably someone else already screaming out a story to the child in their lap so loudly, you can Pinterest on your iPhone while someone else shouts «Green Eggs & Ham» for your brood. Everybody wins!

Tiny library that is local to the community. Good kids selection, but ideal for reserving stuff and pick up.

small library very hidden, not a wide selection but if you order your book it might take aweek to come in, helpful staff and easy parking.

Smaller, local feel, good kids’ section, good parking lot (but with a serious BUMP at the ‘in’ driveway).

The selection here is quite anemic but it’s not a big deal because the majority of the items we pick up is stuff that we’ve reserved online. The staff is quite friendly, it really feels like a neighborhood library rather than a county institution. Parking is easy and the location is convenient!

This is a small library that is great for kids. However, being that it is a part of the LA County Library you can reserve books/​DVDs online and then pick them up at this location a few days after reserved.

A very small community Library
