This place is quite nice.there is a quiet space that I can quietly read my books.

The most 'woke' collection of books on the shelves. No balance in perspective or opinion at all. Virtually none of the classics on the shelves. If its not woke, its fluff. One staff member said she had never heard of Dickens!

Beautiful library with thoughtful staff. A great place to study, read and enjoy a book. The self serve option is amazing.

I recently visited the Signal Hill Library, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. The moment I stepped inside, I was greeted by the warmth and ambience that makes this library so special. From the meticulously organized bookshelves to the aesthetically pleasing decor, every little detail contributed to creating a calming and comfortable atmosphere.
What truly stood out to me was the delightful Children's Section. The area is designed to captivate young minds, with colorful displays of picture books, inviting reading nooks, and engaging interactive learning tools. The environment encourages children to embark on a journey through the world of literature and immerse themselves in the stories. As someone who believes strongly in the power of reading from a young age, I am thrilled that Signal Hill Library has created such a welcoming space for the little ones.
The library also boasts great lighting throughout, providing an enjoyable reading experience without causing any eye strain. The well-lit spaces enhance the overall ambiance, making it a haven for book lovers of all ages.
My time at Signal Hill library exceeded my expectations. I give this wonderful library five stars and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and inspiring reading destination. The charming Children's Section, along with the excellent lighting, have convinced me to return time and time again.

This is never a quiet library. There's always kids running and screaming. Gone are the days of "Shhhht! You're in the library! "

Info no longer relevant to me as I have a career.
But any kid/young person who is applying for the page position, just know there's some weird stuff going on. Either my name is too ethnic for the predominantly white women that have worked here over the years OR you won't get the job unless there's a nepotism situation going on (I knew a girl who got a job here like that).
From the years 2011 to 2019 I sent 100s -no exaggeration- of applications for the page position as I lived near the area, never even got a single callback, even remember following up multiple times throughout my childhood. There's something going on here with their hiring practices and my old situation might be a microcosm of a larger issue.

Nice library in a single floor. Wide open with lots of glass around for natural light. Would like to spend more time here.
