Reviews of Aaniin Library (Library)

Pasha Azad

New and Clean library with kind personnel, but needs a better management. The quiet study area is more like the children playground! Few recycle / garbage bins. The tables are not cleaned daily, One can take many seats, rooms, by putting belongings and no place for others to use the library. Someone need to supervise the second floor regularly.

Personally, I use the library the most. Washrooms are well kept and overall atmosphere of the library and community Centre is beautiful. Mostly peaceful on weekday mornings, and it's the best time to study in the library. 3pm and later are the worst. There are 2 highschool within walking distance from the community Centre. The library quiet areas turn into a socializing area, and is instantly flooded with teens laughing and talking loudly. Friendly staff turn a blind eye when they see and hear them. I would've given a higher rating if the roudey students were more controlled. I don't want to constantly take time out of studying to tell a bunch of teens to lower their voices. If you want to use the library to study in the evening, I would advise you not to. And to go elsewhere.

This is a great library - new building, bright, big windows, very cozy place to study and friendly staff. My only complaint (which is why I give this a 2 star rating) is that the study desks are never clean. I always have to ask the staff for disinfectant wipes to clean the tables and chairs myself. Although the staff are always kind to provide the disinfectant wipes free of charge, it is still very inconvenient as it wastes a lot of my study time to have to clean it myself every single time. It is really unhygienic and gross as there is always lots of food crumbs, lots of hair, and stains on all the tables. I come here when the doors open in the morning and it is very obvious that the cleaning staff never came to clean the library the night before. Although I have seen staff vacuuming the floors but they do it during the DAY when people are studying so it makes sooo much noise and distraction. I really hope they listen to people's concerns/reviews and make positive changes as this library has a lot of potential to be a great place for people to study, but people have been complaining of this issue since over a year ago and no changes have still been made. :( P.S. I also understand that the library is always in use during the day so it will obviously get dirty while people are here, but it would be nice to have the library cleaned during closing hours so that in the morning, when people arrive, they will be welcomed into a clean and fresh library space- that would really make a better first impression for those who come into the library in the morning.

I am quite disappointed to say as a new library there is absolutely no cleanliness. The washrooms on both the first and second floor are a serious health & safety issue. The study area around the windows - those desks are barely ever wiped down - I find specks of food, hair and dust all over it, including the chairs. I actually have to ask the front desk for Lysol wipes and they are confused why I need it... really? Oh, and did I mention that an individual person will hog a study room with four chairs the entire day? To make matters worse, I've seen people put their BARE feet up on the chairs - to make themselves as comfortable as they would be at home. Absolutely Disgusting. And if you are here to study, you might hear all kinds of kids making noise. Quite the library........

(Translated) This library is the scope of my daily activities. In the past few days, I saw news from the Ministry of Health reminding health and safety. I was a little worried, but the atmosphere here was quiet and peaceful, and the crowd was not dense, which made me feel very safe. However, it is recommended to miss the school time, and also hope that the library can clarify some rules when there are many people, such as prohibiting loud noise and pure chat, at least not to prevent others from reading. (Original) 这一座图书馆是我的日常活动范围。最近几天看到卫生部提醒卫生安全的新闻，本来有些担心，可这里的气氛安静祥和，人流也不密集，使我感到非常安全。但是建议错过学校放学的时间，也希望图书馆可以在人多的时候明确一些规范，例如严禁大声喧哗以及纯粹的闲聊，至少以不妨碍他人看书为准。

Aaniin is a very diverse space - with amenities for adults children, readers and non-readers alike. The library can get a bit noisy during school months when the highschoolers get off of class. That aside, it is a cozy place for private/group study and reading.

I’ve been going to this library for the past several months now since I’m studying for my certification exams. I gotta say when the library recently opened it was much cleaner than it is now. It seems like the cleaning staff are doing a very poor job at wiping study desks and cleaning up rooms. Every time I get a room, I find hair and food particles on the study desk which is disgusting! So much that I have to ask for Lysol wipes myself to clean the desk. Most of the time I am one of the first people to enter the library so the staff should not just assume that the desks got dirtier during the day, they were actually never cleaned before library opened up. Also, the noise level at this library increases astronomically after 3pm when high school students start hanging out here. It really becomes a play ground with small children screaming and running around and librarians turn a blind eye. This main study section of the library is very open and it’s easy for anyone to scream at the end of the hallway or on the first floor and be heard throughout the second floor. I think the staff needs to implement strong rules to keep this place quiet, it’s a library not a socializing spot. Although to be fair, there is a quiet study room, which obviously gets completely packed if you plan to come to library after 3:30pm. All in all, I think this library has a lot of potential to be a good study spot if you’re looking for quiet study you can book a room at the back of the second floor or sit in quiet study room (if you arrive early). I’m writing a detailed review in the hopes that the staff would actually read it and possibly take action. I truly appreciate their efforts and genuinely want this library to serve the purpose of education and knowledge for years to come.
