REVIEWS OF Hazel McCallion Central Library IN Etobicoke

Great place!

Ramneek Handa

Renda Alq

not noisy on some floors and great place to study, other than the immature teens around that are extremely loud on ground floor its a pretty nice laid back place.

Jaffer Syed

Sama Aloda

Ruqaiya Afraz

Laura Murrey

awesome spot to study or work (or both at the same time:)) polite staff and great books selection

Will Hobson

This library is awesome. Quite a lot of space available, it's easy to find seating and the temperature is perfect. Lot's of resources are available and the staff is very helpful and friendly. A lot of the reviews on here mention screaming kids on the basement floor, a simple suggestion to those folks is to bring ear phones or ear plugs and to stop sharing their first world problems. The 6th floor offers a quiet place to study and focus. Group floors exist to for those working on projects together. They have regular sales of older books and media content which you can snag a good deal on. The cafe on the first floor serves decent food at a reasonable price and has some of the friendliest staff in Mississauga. The building looks like it's from the 90's which is awesome because you won't miss the 90's while you're here. It's function as a library is awesome and I'm thankful I have a place like this to get work done in. Thanks!

What's great about this place is the atmosphere. Right outside the library is Celebration Square, just a 2 minute walk from Square One and if your a business student like me, you have a ton of source material!!

Shyam Prasad

A reader's heaven. Awesome collection of books and journals of all subjects. Fantastic staff leaves you with a feeling to come again and again.

Navjeet Sidhu

Nischay Modi

Best library in Mississauga. Friendly staff and they take COVID-19 seriously. Easy checkout process for books. Lots of book available on so many topics. They have Gujarati magazine also. I am happy that I found good library just 8 min from my place.

The staff are professional. They have a good selection of books

Vinod Luthra

The atmosphere in this library is NOT at all like it should be. The magazines are not on the shelves but are lying haphazardly in the carts. The people talk loudly on their cell phones. The children are running around, screaming and yelling in the basement. Nobody checks them. The library is a place where it should be all quiet but NOT in this library. It is very disappointing to go to this library. Hope someone does something right!

Saja gharib

Amazing selection of books. The place is very friendly and allows you to study of work very peacefully. One thing i don't like is the washrooms. But the library in general is amazing. and the staff is super nice.

Firas AL-Ramly

Quiet place to study or project work to complete. many resources to keep you up to date. good location in central. their procedure for borrow & return books,DVD and resources very simple and practical. I wish in other countries have the same. When you visit the library don't forgot the Celebration square skating experience and Square One shopping.

Kavina Uthayakumaran

The Central Library is simply fantastic. It's a huge library filled with books, creativity, and wonder. Take out any book you like, from Harry Potter to National Geographic! It also has tons of space for people to work as a group, there's laptop bars, computers, a 3-D printer, and a whole bunch of other things that simply add to the magnificent library we have!

hassan yaqoob

It is not that noisy

Nathanil Purvis

nice location

Nazar Ajeely

It's not just a library, people go here for many activities. It gets really busy sometimes.

Mohammed Al Issawi

One of the best places in the city, you will find a place for discussion and group work, and you will find a quiet place for reading at the 4th floor and the tables are always clean.

Luke Gharghoury

Great open concept but terrible wifi connection (on multiple occasions). Better luck at your neighbourhood Starbucks.

Xiangchuan Kong

Pankaj Gupta

Nice location, aided by celebration square, mall and lot other

Sandeep Basi Sharma

This is one of the best libraries I've come across. It has a dedicated floor for kids at -1 overlooked from the other three floors. There are a variety of books, play options and events for kinder kids. I have seen young kids work on computers dedicated for that age group. The staff is so nice and helpful and suitable to mind children. For grown ups - you name the book and they have it. Otherwise they can borrow from other libraries for you. The library is very spacious and properly maintained. My son (who is 5) and I love to spend time here. I use the library for technology and computer science books which have long wait as they are usually checked out and also placed on hold by many people ahead of me. The only reason I gave 4 ???? is due to the long wait for technology and computer science books. The ask is to have more of such books to reduce wait times.

This library is the state of the art institution in the year 1995! Internet constantly congested to give you the best dial up speeds of 1995! Minimal power outlets as laptops are a luxury in 1995! Maybe in the futuristic year of 2016 with flying cars and life on Mars, they'll upgrade to multiple power outlets; that's obviously going to be forward thinking. Library so ancient that they can't possibly expect anyone to actually come study here, so only 1 tiny washroom for 4 floors is sufficient! And, no need to hire janitors to keep the 1 washroom clean, because obviously no one will use it from the 4 floors! And who cares about water fountains? Let's just have 1 that barely spouts any water, because no one obviously will use it, right?! Oh, since this library is located in the central Square One area, the busiest part of the city, let's make everyone pay for parking! Clearly no one will be smart enough to park steps away at the mall for free! Let's rejoice and celebrate this great year of 1995, with this state-of-the-art, public-friendly library that aims to serve the general public! Thank you Mississauga for providing us such amenities with all of the money you have stocked in your treasury!

Good place to study and do group projects. After a short course you can use the 3D printer, a mint card (separate from a library one) will let you print normally. Great selection of books, movies and games for all consoles. Couches and tables are available to hang out/read as well.

Staff is nice. There are always activities going on if you look at the bulletin boards. There is a group that hosts free board games in the glass pavilion every other Saturday.

Brian S

Always a good place to relax, read, study, get involved with the community and find programs of various types. There's a 3D printer and an area where they sell books as well. A cafe. Women's w.c. on each (?) Floor. Men's only on the first I think.

Drew Gall

Free underground parking on Saturday and Sunday. Clean and modern with a lot of seating to read or study. A small kiosk selling snack food in the foyer. The best library in Mississauga due to it's size. Free wi-fi.

Curtis Borel

Great place in Square One area to host local community meetings and to search for resources for projects.

So much space. If anything, too much space, it gets hard to navigate. I’ve been coming for ten years and don’t plan to stop.

Currently, you can placehold books and take a bag from the library which is amazing for me. Since, reading online on PDF books is such a big problem, and is different from reading in person I love to place hold books and read at home! 5 Stars! Definetly Worth It!

Nice and convenient place.

I'm very DISAPPOINTED, because in the kids level; people were eating beens and tortilla etc, etc. kids eating nuts, and when I ask the lady in the from desk she toll me TEXTUALLY WE DON'T HAVE ANY POLICIES about food here. Big surprise for me because other Libraries even don't let people have a coffee.

The library itself was great, but the patrons are not always there to study or read or use the library for what its meant for. I observed some drug dealing activities occur in there. I also observed groups that go there just to loiter around with no purpose. the quiet study floor might be the only floor that can be best used to study and get the work done.

This applies to Burnhampthorpe/Dixie Rd. branch. Most terrible customer service, not willing to help. I had to point out step by step where he needs to look to get my book even though system showed it's available for a pick up. Gentlemen at customer service was rude, not willing to help. Does customer service people get any training at all? My taxes and additional city funding helps fund basic library operating costs, so I would prefer that at least people do their job!

Fakhir Jamil

Good resourceful library for group studies , books and access to information. You can rent conference rooms too here for tour meetings.

Awesome place to be, multiple floors, space to study, only downside is that because of the services it draws a lot of people, never empty, but not overcrowded. The library runs dozens of programs weekly. Board games, 3D printing, play areas, story times. The kids area is fantastic, my son could stay there almost all day (until he needs a nap). There is free underground parking on weekends and evenings. Elevators and stairs. Program rooms for all kinds of special programs. Staff are friendly and helpful. Books, movies, internet access, self check-out. I use this place a lot, and I love it. -- I should also mention, Sheridan College students.. the Sheridan Wi-fi access is available here.

This library was fun as when I was a kid. However it is so ancient. They never changed anything since I was younger. There is only ONE bathroom for a four floor building. Extremely frustrating and time consuming. The bathroom is small and not clean as well. There are not a lot of outlets if you are working on a project on your laptop. If its dead you would have to go all around trying to find an outlet to charge it. I don't get why there is not a lot of them. They should be on the floor at every table or seats so you can study while charging your devices. Times have changed but they can't get better computers. There should be more water fountains along with better secure internet connection. Everyone uses wifi these days. Also, the library is inaccessible. The times of the library are not good for many students. It is only open until 5 on weekends and 9 on weekdays. I work so it would be nice if I could go to the library to get some homework done after work and study until 11 or 12. I also understand that the staff have families and want to go home but 9 really isn't a good time for people who need a place to study. Just add night staff as someone said in the reviews. I know a library shouldn't be some fancy building but a lot these things are necessities like outlets, wifi, computers, bathrooms and times and would be helpful to many people. This library is pretty ancient as someone said in the reviews. Especially if you've been living near here for so long you can see that it needs to improve.

My little hideout. Peaceful, quiet and yet full of positive energy. Staff is good and Librarians loveee to recommend. They've vending machines installed and a small makeshift cafe near the atrium. Well li, warm and beautiful spot to study or chat comfortably. It's close to Square one and Celebration Square. Parking lot is underground and the parking entrance is a tad confusing to find. It's from Duke of York Blvd. Spending time here is blissful experience for children as well as adults. I'm addicted to it.

Located at the heart of Mississauga the central library is considered one of the best by many. Central has the largest selection of book in the whole system. The only down side is that this may get packed nearing to exam nights but the library is laid out to have every level different and spaces you out more than you think. Food is also available downstairs by the entrance and the staff don't really mind if you take some in just as long as you keep quiet.

Renowned novelist Jane Austen once said, "I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library". She would be the happiest if alive today and in Mississauga. Undoubtedly one of the best library systems in the world in the City of Mississauga, the Central Library is the crown of them all. Spread over 5 floors (including the children section at basement level) this sprawling library is definitely a refuge for an avid reader. I had made full use of the faculties the Central Library offered when I first landed in Canada in 2005. This past weekend, after a gap of many years, I had once again the opportunity to visit the Central Library to pick up books that i had put on hold. I was in awe with the way nothing much had changed in the intervening years. The library continues to be the hub for students to do group studies. For newcomers to Canada to look for illuminating information and up to speed with their English. For entrepreneurs and would be entrepreneurs to use the knowledge and wisdom of business centre. Whether it is for reading, borrowing, referencing the Library has a wonderful selection of books, newspapers, magazine, periodicals, movies, DVDs and more. What is more it is maintained very efficiently by a team that is not only very friendly but very passionate about their job. The shelves are neat the aisles clean, the atmosphere serene (except in the kids section) and reaching for any book is a very easy affair. If I had all the time in the world the one place I would spend it in would be the Central Library. I hope the City continues to fund it well to maintain the high standards. And the staff keep the same passion to ensure this is something Jane Austen would have loved to be part of.

Nabeel Nasir (ilmaddict)

Huge library with an entire floor dedicated to children's books. I regularly bring my kids here because the selection of books is so vast.

Mohammad Abu-Marzouk

Central Library is my second home since I arrived to Mississauga When I study it’s the best place When I just want to chill and read it’s amazing When I come with my daughters we always have good time finish our homework, play and Every Saturday we come to the store time and the LEGO time

Husain D

Everyone I spoke to was so friendly and the library is simply awesome. The terms of borrowing are very generous as well. It's tempting enough to return often and read or work from here.

The biggest library in Mississauga. The computers run Windows 7 and have Google Chrome as of today. Non-members can access the Internet. It's usually noisy but they have an entire floor (floor 5) just for silent work like studying.

It is well designed and very quiet

Nick R

Honestly, the parking, lack of washrooms & water fountains, overall inaccessibility to this library far outweigh the size and location of this building. I have rarely had a good, productive work session here due to the fact that it's almost impossible to charge your laptop once its dead. Even a McDonald's is more convenient to work in.

Good for children on basement floor. They have a large selection of books for all ages to encourage reading to your kids, get them in the mind set of loving to read, when they are older. Also, it would be good for schooling. You must see the central library if in Mississauga, even if you go to another branch closer to you. My kids love it there.

if you plan on getting work done its not gonna happen here! The library is very large, but its also extremely crowded and can get very loud making studying very difficult. Additionally, the library lacks 'quiet study zones' so its basically impossible to find a quiet place to study.

Shawn Liu

Vinh Hoach

Staff are very nice and helpful. Even the volunteer staff are helpful too. Parking is no longer free now. So study here can be costly.

The library is perfect, but the men's washroom in the second floor is very bad. It has a very bad smell all the time.

My favorite library in Mississauga by far. So spacious and the book selections so diverse and voluminous. On top of it all, I love skating outside after an afternoon of reading.

Nickey H

So many books and lots of space (watch out during exam time though).

Joseph Tran

Very big library with a ton of books to check out. I love the new construction in the front check out area. Everything is now automated. They're are alot of computers to use and tables for you and your friends to study at and some quiet areas. The staff are really helpful here

R Kaur

While overall this library is consistent in maintaining its quiet study policy, it has missed the mark a few times. A library is supposed to be for QUIET STUDY or even quiet group study, NOT for group expos and events. How can anyone study with large groups of people chatting loudly on the 2nd floor due to an exposition being held? This is totally unacceptable - especially for a LIBRARY! Hold such loud, noisy events inside the adjacent building - perhaps the Living Arts Centre? Also, while most staff have been courteous and helpful, I have witnessed some members slamming doors behind them as they go in and out of their staff space. What happened to keeping "quiet" on the 3rd and 4th levels? :S

Cynthia Rego

Shawn Deagan

Yes you guessed it. Another horrible review. This library is too loud. Louder than any in Mississauga at best. The children are running around and making too much noise in all floors. Librarians do not care. The phone use I have no problem with as long as it's quiet. Somehow in this library everyone thinks they can can blast it in their conversations. The washrooms are often broken or out of service. This is bad for a library where you might take time reading. The books are overpriced. The magazines are not organized abd will be impossible to find even if asked by a librarian. How does that make any sense!? There are few counter in this library that help people find books for study. It is very bad as a library. One star is good enough. Study here at your own risk!

Mo Mo

Helpful staff, but they fined me for overdue items when I renewed them (but the clerk didn't know that they couldn't be renewed)

raman veera

Excellent collection

yicancu56

As libraries go its good. But my main concern is its inaccessibility. I haven't heard about a lack of outlets nor Wi Fi but the simple fact that they're only open until 9PM when right down the street is a 24 hour Starbucks. I know its such a minor complaint, but I work 9-5 and am preparing for my GMAT, I'd like a place where I can sit until 11 or midnight and just study. I also understand these people have families and want to go home, but I, and several other students, would study here if it weren't for the hours. 9AM - 6PM on a Friday (today) isn't helpful for students who want to study. There should be measures in place where people can be unattended or something if needed, or simply add night staff.

Niama Znachenie

This is absolutely embarrassing! How can Mississauga Library System still Use Windows XP and most importantly only Internet Explorer 8? Internet Explorer 8 was released on March 19, 2009; 4 years ago! There are dozens of valuable websites that cant be visited due to outdated browsers, slow and fragmented Computer Systems! If the City Can't afford to upgrade the operating system to more recent Windows 7 then by all means Upgrade to a Free, Fast, Secure, and Educational Edubuntu Linux 12.04 or any other Linux for that matter especially since over 99% percent of all Windows features are blocked! Then why are you investing money in an operating system that you don't allow to be used fully anyways? Cant imagine how much money goes down the toilet when you count how many computers are running Windows and are fully blocked in all the libraries in Mississauga! if you are too behind to upgrade to Linux then please at least install latest Google Chrome or Firefox so I can at least browse the web properly!

The kids yelling and screaming in the basement can be heard at the top floor which is "the quiet study" area and it is very distracting because the noise is not faint, its like they are right there. Specially if there is some activity going on in the basement, you cannot concentrate. Other than that quiet study area is a good place to prepare for exam and studying.

I went to the library seeking some information .. the young lady at the front desk on the 2nd floor was amazing .. she helped in all my questions ... I forgot my glasses. . And she took the time to search and print the info I needed .. thank you so much Natasha for your kind heart and professional attitude in taking the time to help me . I wish you all the best

I used to come to this Library since I landed in Canada almost 30 years ago. It’s an excellent facility and we’re truly fortunate to benefit from it and the fantastic staff. I’ve since moved to Meadowvale, and really miss this place. Will find an excuse to cone here regularly when things open up again.

Good place to study but there is no medical reference books for medical students, I hope to find some there

A very spacious, convenient space for getting work done. I have been coming to this library for years and I am grateful to say this library has brought me service. Personally I will continue to be going into this library, although there are some room for improvement. The WiFi connection is not so strong. I often have troubles connecting and using different programs on my laptop. Secondly, after school times, the library can get very loud where it may be difficult to focus on work. Given many children's arrival, it would be more convenient to have quieter spaces (not just the fourth floor).

With convenient parking and location in the heart of the city this library can provide good books and interesting expositions connected with past history of different cultures.

Had great experience here. Tbh it reminded me of Hogwarts Library. Amazing. The books are so great it's a bibliophile's delight. I hope I get to visit more such professional, updated and well kept libraries like these...

lots of open space to study and selection of books is great. I remember the old central library by Dundas/Hurontonario and this is a big improvement

Better to study at the library where the atmosphere of people studying forces you to study. But the private study rooms are unexpectably not sound proof. Like I can hear people singing their hearts out while people are studying out of the private rooms

One of the best libraries in GTA and this is the biggest public library in Mississauga. It has a huge collection of variety of books and online resources. The top floor is reserved for silent study, so you can sit there and enjoy the peaceful environment. Wifi, washroom, cafe, printing and computer services are available at this location. I love this place.

Good selection of books that tailor to most interests, big clean library, easily accessible.

Our favorite library! Love their large children’s section with plenty of activities, games, and toys to keep kids occupied after they’ve picked out their books. And being right in Celebration Square makes it the perfect place to spend a whole afternoon. There’s paid street parking on weekdays, and then free underground parking in the garage on the weekends.

1. The Librarians here are some of the most educated and skilled librarians I’ve ever interacted with. THEY DESERVE A LIVABLE SALARY! 2. The academic collection is strong 3. They have plenty of quiet study space, with specific general quiet study group rooms and a whole quiet study floor 4. They have plenty of independent study rooms 5. The WIFI signal has always been strong when I’ve used it 6. The Library overall has plenty of space for academic or social use 7. There library system has a strong academic collection 8. The Library system has a strong Literary collection

This library is great and all the services are amazing, my only complaint is that it closes so early at 9pm. Most libraries in a cities "downtown core" close much later. As a working student i only have time to come to the library after work at around 5/6 and its very hard to get much done in the short time the library remains open after then . If the library dedicated some days during the week to a later close time (perhaps 10/11pm) i'm sure many people like myself would find great use for those few extra hours.

Juliana Downey

Was nice at the best of times, but as of late, with the shut down and all, plans to re-open in 2 years is ludicrous.

Excellent place for every section of the local society. There are some negative reviews about some of the library workers. One of them is a male who thinks he owns the place ( and not in a good way) I've already lodged a complaint with the city to have him take a sensitivity course. He's quite a blemish to our Canadian sentiment. I've never run into him but seeing him deal with other patrons made me approach him for his name. Ill leave it out of here now. Please enjoy this wonderful place for the many other awesome folks that make it a success. Rose at the cafe never ceases to amaze me. Love this place for knowledge advancement and some quiet time. Glad to have this as my favorite go-to place

Called central library Mississauga for assistance with library card issue and the lady on the phone was extremely rude and when i asked that i want to speak to a supervisor she mocked me by saying ohh I am so scared, did not want to listen to me and said I was telling her Fables....
