Very good local service, some friendly staff.... Good selection of books, large child's play area great to incorporate reading into play time, many computer terminals with time limits so there's only the possibility of a 30 minute max waiting time downstairs... And 60 minutes maximum potential waiting time upstairs... There is also a large study room on the second floor with free electricity ports for laptop and phone/tablet chargers (bring own charger) and in the top floor I believe they may have conference or meeting rooms.... Maybe bookable

The staff would be hard pressed to make this more of an oppressing place, two encounters today from their staff, both equally unhelpful.edit: their response is totally irrelevant and has nothing to do with DPA, not sure why companies/orgs have to hide behind DPA in relation to anything. This is about their staff rudeness, I had ID and this was not an account query.

Best ( and unique one) library in the area. Study area very beautiful, separated from kids and computers. Toilet facilities always an issue. I just hope it does not get closed or ruin as the others.

THE GOOD:Had to use the wifi facilities , while in town to finish some web design work. The wifi was really good speed and was provided free of charge so can't complain. Thanks O2.THE UGLY:While using the wifi had a phone call which I took really quickly, a member of staff informed me that I couldn't use my phone. No problem with that I apologised and hang up the phone straight away. However this wasn't good enough for the female member of staff she continued to inform me, another 3 times even though I had hang up my phone and switched it off and said sorry and explained I wasn't aware.Mistakes happen , not sure what else I could of done to say sorry. Maybe a few signs would help. Next time I need wifi. I think I will go to Costa friendlier staff.

Although very good in many respects I have found on a regular basis that it will often not display a certain public event that may be on that day or soon. They seem to support maybe their own agenda of what they think people might want to know, so it seems to be too selective in my opinion.
