Croydon Central Library

Library

😠 This is proper Croydon style library. Dirty, ran down, almost complete lack of service despite being located in such a monumental building: I went there with my 20 months old hoping to find some good book and a baby friendly space as most libraries nowadays have a decent kids space. Well, it was sim...

Lewisham Library

Library

😠 Please note this review is not applicable to the staff who work at Lewisham library as they have always been kind and friendly. Recently in Aug 22 a decision by Lewisham council was to move the children's library section from the first floor to the ground floor. What this means is they have creat...

Wallington Library

Library

😠 At present it's a disappointing experience. From welcoming the public it now dissuades them. The chairs cannot be sat on, there seems to be a shortage of staff and efforts to entice readers are minimal.

Southall Library

Library

😠 Small library. The study center couldve been a pleasant place to read and study but it is noisy because people use the place to charge their phones and do phone calls and talk to each other. It is annoying and disrespectful to those who actually study and read. Libraries are not supposed to be a pla...
