West Ealing Library london

Staff are helpful but could sometimes be abrupt and blunt on a busy day. Practical tip: don’t hang out in the library on a rainy day. People will be smoking near the entrance and the smell of smoke creeps inside. so I transferred seats. Unfortunately there were people who looked to be seeking shelter from the rain on the other side of the room who’s smell bothered me even more. They weren’t even reading a book or trying to look busy with library stuff. Just sitting there chatting away. There are good silent days though, days when you can concentrate on your reading. But you’d probably be better off borrowing books and reading them in the comfort of your own house or in a coffee shop.

One of the best libraries in London

It is always closed ( I visited 4 times!!) and when staff is in, they tell you that the library is for people with card. I told that I want a card and they say no, come other day. I cannot be bother for a piblic libtary that it is not public.

This library is small, but permits club activities on Monday each week, with the exception of Bank Holidays/Public Holidays.

I really like the facilities in our local library. Staff are friendly and helpful and the opportunity to register to study and use the library out of hours is great

I used to use this library as a kid and now as a mother i take my son, it’s much more child friendly now, they have an area for kids to colour and draw and the selection of books are just fantastic.

whats happened to West Ealing library it looks like a totally abandoned building?

Very noisy. Great place to hear other peoples' conversations as phones constantly ring. People don't give a damn about others; when they do answer their phone they speak loudly and the librarians are too overworked or too scared to do anything about it.Staff are, however, kind and helpful.Eight computers - six of which are available for an hour and the other 2 are for 30 minutes.It is closed on Mondays.

Very attentive staff who are passionate about their work and very helpful. A real asset to the community.
