Reviews of Edmonton Public Library - Calder (Library)

Thuy N

Nice setting, good selection of books and media, nice staff. Sometimes tend to be quite noisy with kids and their parents. Miss the old days when the libraries would be quiet and peaceful

Suzanne Amanda Sawan

Convenient location...small but twice the size as the last location. They have everything a library needs including a fire place... the bathrooms are better, cleaner looking and the staff are quite friendly

R Qua

Great new building! Super friendly staff.

Nice new library. Has better/different staff picks than the location closer to my house. Bright and lots of natural light. Love the gender neutral bathrooms and especially the 24 hour hook return which I find super handy! (And not all locations have!)

Have been using this library for 15 plus years. great friendly staff, alright selection recommend using the EPL app to have books/movies/games you want brought into the library for pickup. Cant wait for the new location being built a few blocks away!

Jeff Parcels

It is small and quaint. Amazing staff. They obviously love what they are doing. Super impressive how helpful and friendly they are towards all people.

Kate Lynn Faith

This location is quite tiny, but the staff are friendly and helpful, and there is a cute kid's section. They have community-based computers, a comfortable reading area, and offer some community programs as well.

Jan Mieke Omabao

Love the design of the building.

Tyler Pheng

Way nicer than old and more spacious and inviting. Also the staff is really nice and quite helpful when you have an issue.

I think it's way better then the one that was in the strip mall where giant tiger is and the H&W produce.. it's twice as big and it has new computers with desks where you can plug on your devices with ease. It has way more windows then the last one and way more natural light that's much better plus they have a fire place and the bathrooms are better. They do have some books but I learned that a lot of their books are only accessible online, same with the magazines that are online. They do have game console games for xbox, xbox one, PS3, PS4, Nintendo wii etc... plus they have a good selection of movies your able 2 rent 4 two days and can put movies, books on hold online if you want...the new library is right across the street from my place so it's really convenient.

Ever since this new location opened, going to an EPL in the Calder area has been much better, the place looks great on the outside and inside, there is a lot of room as well as it isnt crowded. The staff are kind and knowledgeable.

Nice new library ????????

José “JoJo” Vergara

Very nice Design. Could have been made a bit bigger I think. Also It's a shame they closed the school next to it thou. Now it's just a really creepy old abandon building next to a very modern and very astherically pleasing building. Staff are very friendly and helpful, the place is cozy and very kid friendly.

Andrea Rueda

Friendly staff..

Love it! New and modern state of the art facilities, lovely interior design with unique pieces and deco. It’s mostly quiet and a great place to study, though i think it’s quite small, It could have been made into a 2-storey building to maximize space, and I think the office spaces took too much space :)

Melony C

Great selection of books !!

Alvin Krawchuk

This library is a great improvement from the old location. The atmosphere is open with lots of light and s quite relaxing. The grounds are nicely landscaped, but the parking lot is too small and access is poor. There is lots of room to add more content and I hope to see more items in future.

Molly Pearson

Very small, but the staff are very helpful and kind

Carly Chen

The new building is fantastic! It's bright and airy, with lots of windows. There are three main areas (children's, teens and computers, adults) in addition to a glassed-in quiet space and a program room. The different areas are separated from each other, but are all easily visible from the main desk near the entrance. The children's area has a really cool play place with gears and plastic tubes that kids can rearrange to make their own inventions. My son played happily there for ages and asked to come back. There are also comfy benches for reading stories. Other notes: -The main bathroom is unisex. There are two smaller individual bathrooms which are also unisex. -The checkout computers can be raised and lowered by pressing a button. My son was really happy that he could check out his own books without asking for help or dragging over a stepstool.

Friendly staff and quite place.

Gord Buchan

Very welcoming ????

Zain Shhada

It is an amazing library, also the staff is helpful

Brian Collins

The library is great just like most EPLs. But this one has way too many little kids playing mine craft and I can never find a quiet place.

Carrie Rosa
