Ottawa Public Library - Hazeldean

Quick visit, got what I needed quickly. Bunus in case you need, they have COVID test for frer

I travel between 4 libraries. Three in Ottawa and one in Kemptville. All are good, but the staff at Hazeldean are a small tier better. Nicer, more helpful and always smiling.

Staff was very helpful and assisted me in incredible efficient manner in a way that made it possible to get a lot of things done in the same day.

Processes were easy to follow and support was readily available. Great place to bring a child, elders, or anyone that can benefit from a calmer, safe space. Accessibility was good too, from what I've seen they will be ready for any special needs, for example.

As a bonus for the families: you are near a public pool and some other open spaces that could be great for kids.

Also, during a day when my neighbourhood lacked electricity, I was able to work very well from their tables in a silent and clean ambient.

Get your library cards renewed, this place might save your plans in the future!

A cozy little community library with plenty of sitting space, large windows, study space, and a dedicated children’s area. It is quite small and does not have a quiet reading or study area. Whenever there are kids at the library, it gets quite loud. They also have a newspaper and magazine reading area. The bathrooms at this location are always clean and well maintained.

Small, convenient location. I pre-order books on opl and pick them up when notified by email

Sunny and cozy study space. Not super silent space because of kids and communication but still I love this place because I can smell books here and lot of plants with serene window view

Great place to learn, with a wide variety of books and videos for kids.
