Reviews of Surrey Libraries - Semiahmoo Branch (Library)

Andrea Verhoef

Love this library!! It’s really bright and quiet, a great place to sit and read or study. This location has a wonderful selection of books. There are also flyers on the wall for local classes and whatnot that are also being held at the library.

This library is wonderful.Its plant wall is really special and creative. The stuff are friendly and enthusiastic. But the rules for borrowing are not friendly.The period Readers hold the borrowing only three weeks and renew once. Readers couldn't use materials effectively and conveniently.In my experience, KPU has the best and friendly borrowing system. The period is one month and automatically renew four times. When someone need them and hold, you couldn't renew and should return them to the library. This is the best borrowing system.

This is a great library! Bright open lots of seating and study space. There are times that it is very busy, usually around 3-6pm during the school months. Later evening or mornings are much quieter and there is more space.

This library has an excellent selection of books for adults and children, as well as an extensive collection of blu-rays and dvds. The staff are very friendly and are always pleased to offer their assistance. And in the Children's section is the most adorable fire engine with shelving for books! I also always admire the living plant wall on the outside of the building every time I drive or walk past. My only complaint would be with the parking underneath, which is quite narrow and a little dicey to get out of.

Cool, good distancing

Great library in a great location which allows those who study convenient access to amenities such as food and shopping. The wall garden on the south face of this building gives the structure a unique character. Library is quiet, clean, and has a large assortment of children's books. There is also a public jigsaw puzzle near the entrance for everyone to contribute to its completion

My favourite library I have ever been to. Used to spend hours here when I was growing up, my mom used to let me take the bus there by myself when I was a kid and it always felt like my second home. Such a cozy building and always super organized. It’s the perfect place to visit on a grey or rainy day

Bryson Worden

Wonderful location with helpful staff, great amenities and features, and overall a wonderful layout that accommodates everyone using the library from the Semiahmoo/South Surrey area!

I have been coming here since it opened years ago for the comics, movies and great selections of magazines and books that I actually enjoy reading, from arts & crafts, lifestyle to entertainment to sport. There’s decent number of computers for use, internet and intranet and rooms for quiet reading and where students review their lessons. There’s a kid section, as well as adults’. It’s a perfect place to read, rest or to simply pass the time away :-)

Helpful staff members.

Decent library. They should have a better selection in my opinion. On the south wall of the library there is one of the largest wall gardens in North America. There is a great community space that groups can rent for a nominal fee. The South Surrey Community Police station is located in the same building in the ground floor.

Nice and cozy library ????!

Jack Peters

Great Library and always a great place to do some reading or computer work. Not as quiet as I would have liked. This building has a living wall, with plants and ever greens, on the south side of the building. The library is on the second floor and RCMP offices on the first floor.

Horrible experience, the guy at the info desk I think another person told me he was named Kevin, he was the manager and I was trying to contact my parents because I lived far away from the library and did not nave my phone with me so I asked the info desk people if I could borrow the phone that they had on their desk, but he said that was for business and to hurry up I did, 10 seconds later he said to hurry up, a minute later he took the phone away from me and said that it was for business only and that it was the last time that I could ever use it, now I frequent this library so I knew that phone never got used, I was meeting with my teacher at the library and he wasn't there so I asked to phone a second time to my mom because I wanted her to pick me up, he said that it was for business only and to not use it, I asked him what type of business it was used for because they weren't buying or selling anything, he just told me to leave. then I tried to ask him if I could use his personal phone then because he wasn't allowing me to use the "business phone" but he cut me off and said for me to just leave him. I stayed at the library until my mom came to pick me up. When she came a new person was at the info desk and when my mom wanted to see the manager for that shift the new person at the info desk said that it was Kevin. Then I asked her what the business phone was used for and she answered and these were her actual words "It is used for personal business." VERY UNPROFESSIONAL.
