Yeah, it's just a pile of books, like the piles of books you can get at any other big city library in north America.But wow, this pile of books will wow you. Guaranteed.I'll be able to tell my grand-kids I was there on opening day. So proud of my library.

What a great spot for a library. Not a lot there for books but great meeting room spaces and amazing views. Coffee shops too! Great spot for a break from Spring Garden Road :) Architechtual design is something to see in Canada. So glad it's here where I live !

What a beautiful library! You must visit the top floor and check out the views. It is an atmosphere that insists you return to enjoy!

I enjoyed all sections. Visited several times. One evening I went to a community lecture in the auditorium. Terrific lecture and space! It has great openness and light! Do go for a visit! Also, great coffee! Staff are helpful even though it is quite busy.

I visited the new central library and found it to be bright, spacious and well organized. The two cafes operated by Pavia are excellent. I had a Chai Latte and enjoyed the view from the upper floor. The rooftop area will be lovely in the summer.

We visited the new library for the first time a few weeks ago and were incredibly impressed, apart from the overpriced cafe. The library has lots to offer for every age and is architecturally stunning! There is a great reading area with comfy chairs on the first level and a large children's section on the second floor which includes a great play area. The library wasn't very busy when we visited since most of the city was still shovelling out from a major snowstorm and we enjoyed having the library to ourselves (almost). A fantastic place to study/bring the kids/have a date/kill time, etc.

It's a very fancy, clean and well placed location. Lots of space. Lovely little book nooks to sit down and read/study in private. Great look off areas to see Halifax. Fun for the family

Is famous for architecture. Great views, space and location.But why in the name of ____ are there ALWAYS long lineups to get out with a book??? Isn't that the service???

Loved the old library. Had spent lots of time there an I love to read so next I will go visit the new library when wether is better. As it is very hard to park in the city so I take a bus after I park outside the city and walk back to my car. It is great city.
