Reviews of Toronto Public Library - Agincourt Branch (Library)

Awesome library with the friendliest library staff! Nice to do some 3d printing. (This is pre-covid)

Xiao Joanna

This place was a great community library, but now it is full with homeless people and noisy elementary school kids.

Christian ?

Great library. I love going to the library, but most are in community centres that can get loud. This is a great library because its a bit secluded. Stop by to read a book. It's really nice here

Andre

They have a after hours book drop off!

Quiet reading ???? spaces available... Due to Covid 19 they have reduced seating just to stick on social distancing

This library has a digital hub which offers a computer lab , 3d printer and a green screen room. Everything in this library are well maintained and they have so much to offer. Adult , youth and children programs are offered here and usually have a good turn out.

Haven't been back in such a long time and I think I'll start heading here more often. Although this might be a small library there are plenty of seats and never really quite packed. Great place to study. There's also a Tim Hortons in the plaza right next to it so that's also a plus for me.

Monowar Hossain

Good collection. Renovating the entire library

Tomo M

The staff are so helpful. Today, I went there because I lost my pen case in this week. I asked the staff if someone found my pen case. At that moment, I could not find it, but they suggested me to leave my contact info to them. After that, I received their call and I could get it back.

Alexander Mei

Really spacious and quiet. My go to library at all times, even if I don't live around the area. Lots of books to choose from and helpful staff.

I've been here a few times to look for some books. So far so good. It is small but cozy inside. Staff is friendly and helpful except for one.

Great stuff, great place, amazing programs, for a person whose personal printer broke down I love the library, you can even send your printing job online from personal computer to the printer and go straight away to the printer and get your stuff. In and out real quick.

Kerstin Ivonne Sy Tieng

I love this branch! It has study tables, and wifi! My favourite go to place to study and do my homework when I was still a Pharmacy Tech student because I can find all my reference books

There's never enough space. It seems like people are camping there and I'm forced to scavenge the library for a good 15 minutes to find one seat. Not to mention there's always that one guy screaming and making weird noises at his computer. Outlets are all over the place, and there are too many programs happening all the time in the quiet room when in reality we just want a seat.

Pauline “Journeyman Soul Sistren” Smith

I have accessed this library on numerous occasion. In the past, it was a decent space to study, and the staff was informative However, since the renovation, the library is a mess. There is now perpetually a long line to check out because there is only one to two terminals available at any given time. The staff is unhelpful and dismissive of patrons. It is a construction space instead of a library.

Mandy Zhou

Spacious and very beautiful! Lots of chairs and study space and computer rooms are plenty.

牛佳龙

Jack Chen

Many areas here were quite snug

Arvin Can

We've been going to this library for a long time. Even though it's a little bit of a drive for us, it's still the biggest in the neighbourhood, so the trip is worth it. It's has a great selection of children's books and comic books and videos.

Good place to chill at and kill time

After a year or so of renovation, the agincourt library becomes more modern and digitized with more computers. It has a wide selection of Chinese language books along with other books of other languages representing the local community population.

Jhon Wang

(Translated) Good environment, but need more places to learn and read (Original) 好环境，但需要更多的地方学习和阅读

Sameem M

This library has been my go-to-place for over a year now. The Digital hub is amazing! Having Greg and Gobi is truly an advantage to the public to leverage. I even managed to 3D print my invention! Would give them 6 stars if I can !

Currie Cheung

A spacious library which offers good selection of books and community programs. But staffs are lack of energy .

Just Sum Dad

Good size. Lots of computers to use. Clean. Helpful workers. Ample parking.

The busiest district library in the City makes this location a bit worn out. Looking forward to the upcoming renovation that can make this branch great again.

Ganesh Subramanian

The Best library, lots of books, Tamil books too, great ambient.

Most of the best, large library in Scarborough. Nice environment and the numerous books

My experience is only based on a handful of visits to this location but each of those times, I found the staff dismissive and patronizing.

Janice lu

I lost my phone somewhere and went to this library for help. Three gentlemen working at this library were helpful and nice. They helped me to trace my phone. Even though I found my phone by another way in the end, I am very grateful towards their willingness to help.

mushimaster94 S

Such a quiet and peaceful library. Its pretty big and has many unique programs like the leading to reading program. It needs more study space though. I really like how its 2 stories so all the kids/noise they produce is concentrated to the first floor only. Staff are fine. Great selections of kids/youth and adult books. Lots of parking and it has a bike rack for cyclists.

Pushkar Verma

The library is very close to my residence and has been my favourite place to spend some time reading books, internet browsing and printing important documents. My son and wife loves reading books and they often borrow new set of books almost every week. The staff is extremely polite and helpful as well as kind to guide in case of queries. It provides free access to various genre of authors and also arrange a number of awareness programs. In the current situation when the libraries are closed, they are lending the internet-enabled devices to those who lacks such devices. There can’t be a better example of generosity in this unprecedented time. It’s a shame that the members who borrow books from TPL scribble on them and return without erasing properly, I wish they had some sensibility.

Chris Murree

This library is always loud. They do not enforce any rules regarding noise. Half the time I come here there is someone yelling into a speakerphone.

Jignesh Shah

Lots of good books and really clean

So I haven’t been to a library in like 10+ years before this visit to Agincourt TPL. I was intrigued by their 3D printer facility so I booked a time slot the night before. When I got there I realized my old Library card was long expired and required a new one which the library staff was very kind in assisting me in acquiring. After I headed over to the 3D printer lab which was staffed by. Very knowledgeable staff member named Greg. He helped my download the design plans and setup the printer to make my audio device port cover. The whole process was very streamlined and intuitive so I would have no problem doing it myself on the next visit. The price and value can not be beat as this whole thing costed me $0.50 compared to purchasing it in the store for over $25. I fully support funding out local libraries to keep valuable services like this and many others for the future.

Vic Fan

renovation until Dec 18th. Don't come here guys

Carl Hansen

I feel more educated after attending this location.

(Translated) The Chinese language here is not very special, but the environment is good. (Original) 这里中文书不是特别多 但环境不错

Marjolaine Asselin

I go there with my children every thursday and we all enjoy it :) A lot of choice for children in English and French :)

J K

Nice library with friendly staff. Gets busy and noisy sometimes.

Anon Tablet

A larger library, well-endowed in everything but charging spaces, which are in areas that can be monopolized or blocked off by certain members of the clientele.

A Google User

Staff is helpful, good selection of books, good environment (nice and quiet). There is also a lot of foreign stuff here, a lot of Chinese books & dvds.

S sun

lack too much professional book selection.

shravya pandiri

Visiting this library for the first time , staff are very helpful, everything is pretty fast and good collection of books

Nishat Jafar

Very nice

Therion TTmega

spent 3 months in there for my CFA lvl 1 test last year, and working on lvl 2 now. Everything seems good except (1)kids screaming,(2) loud group discussion/chatting, (3)eating food inside the library. the bottom line of behaving in a public library, from my opinion, is not disturbing others to the most possible extent..... Glad we have one library like this in the neighborhood.

Gerald Fitzpatrick

Nice district library

D L

I love this place. I bring the kids there all the time as it's got a good size area just for kids! The books selection is pretty good as well. I had a chance to walk around the place today and it's even got a second floor which is just as roomy was the first floor. Lots of seats were already taken but that's on your own doing for not getting there early enough.

Gord Campbell

It's a great library branch. Sadly, HQ has introduced new checkout software which is a massive downgrade. Takes twice as long to check out. IT failure!

Alex Liao

waste of tax money, it looks like they need 9 months to fix the second floor, it began at May 2，today is Oct 8, if u live in other contury， they could built a new two floor building in 9 months, if you want more space to study, just move half of the book to first floor , why u waste 9 months to upgrade.that is reason we like last mayor 。

Robert Alexander Tracey

This library has been very helpful as of late especially with my disability.. not the best but well worth it being there!!
