A shadow of it's former self. Five years ago this was a very good library with an excellent reference section but now it's decimated. A sad reflection on our times.

Very helpful and lovely staff! Thank you to the lovely lady that helped me print off my boarding pass, as a lost Australian you helped me a lot.

It might be a nice library but the catalog is so poor. Forget about most of the classics (even if they have them by chance, they are not available for loan), anything on psychology, self help, basically anything that's more interesting that your main stream reading. Very disappointing choice in the whole Borough of Hounslow libraries.

You can really learn a lot from this library as they have a lot of books, maps and all other materials. I had a great time checking in here but I am just sad that they do not open on Sundays. Hope you will also be open on Sunday so that I can visit you right after going to church!

A wonderful example of a crucial community asset not being given the investment it needs to properly serve the community. The main floor and entrance have been modernised. There is one self service terminal for borrowing and returning books, two librarian positions for help and a large vibrant children's section. A recent idea is a section containing books recently borrowed by other customers, serving as an oblique recommendation for the books. So far I've had one hit and one miss from it. Unfortunately the remainder of the library looks tired and unappealing, and fails to do justice to the collection of literature housed there. Accessibility to the raised ground floor containing fiction and nonfiction is via a small platform type lift. There is no access for anyone with mobility problems to the reference library on the upper floor. Coincidentally it's also where the local councillors have their weekly clinics too, so these can't be fully inclusive either. Hopefully funds can be found to redress these short comings, but as there were recent moves to close this library (defeated happily) it's unlikely to be soon.
