Askew Road Library london

A small paradise. Loads of great books for adults and children, fun events all year round and more importantly, wonderful and very knowledgable and helpful staff. Sign up and enjoy a nice community around you.

Really good library for both books and renting movies, staff are really helpful and very kind.

It is genuinely beyond me that this place has the audacity to call itself a library, a place of quiet study. You would think that after being open for 40+ years, they would have at least a sense of the criteria required to be and the functions fulfilled by a library. A library doesn't substitute for Wacky Warehouse, or some other theme park for children, nor is a library an area for socialising and catching up. This place, at best, is a poor substitute for procrastination.

Seem to have a good selection of books. However, the library is ridiculously noisy. I am sure that a library is meant to be quiet? The librarians that I have seen in the few days I have been there do not bother to tell anyone to be quiet. There is one in particular who has conversations across the library. On my first visit here there were people eating, drinking and having a group conversation?!?!?!! The irony is that in the section where you can charge your laptop (which by the way there is only one - there should be more - and it is such a dark area!) there is a sign telling you to keep your phones turned off because of the noise!!!!!!! It would be a really great library if the librarians told the children to not run around the library and told people have conversations to keep it down. And of course if a certain librarian didn't have extremely loud conversations with everyone!!

I love all staff because all staff is helpfully and very friendly behave.it is small but everything here what u need

Worst customer service ever. Badly need new management.

Allways brilliant and helpful

Had to come here because Shepherd's Bush Library was closed, most expensive library I've come across to do colour printing, I also had to pay for a 30min a session on the computer that took 5min (less). Sad day when it's actually more expensive to do printing at a public library than it is to go to a professional printing place. Staff are friendly and for a small library it's well set up, so if you're coming for book related reasons I'm sure it would be ok.
