Reviews of The Valley Library (Library)

Aaron Silverstein

Hot and stuffy.....and hard to use the bathrooms in the morning..... Because of bad bathroom design...... And lots of people use the bathroom in the morning....so you have to go to the next floor to get a sit down toilet..but don't just stand there and wait..like a doosh bag dork....and the Wi-Fi does not work in 70% of the library....... And if you are sitting right under the Wi-Fi thing....its still slow....

too many days and nights spent here. one of the best libraries i've ever been to.

Best place to study or do homework. Might be hard to find an empty table during finals week.

Having fun isn't hard when you have a library card

Amazing

Best study stop on campus. There are areas to have quite studying but also spots where you can talk and study in groups. The large number of computers is great, I've never had to wait for one. There is also a cafe downstairs, which makes is a plus!

Great for studying and taking naps when it's raining.

A very nicely laid out library. I'm a fan of how much art they were able to feature in it.

Open late (with the coffee shop as a food option), lots of study space, impressive collection, and very helpful staff. One of the best and most central places on campus.

Total lifesaver, especially during the summer. It is kind of hard to study when your house is 80 degrees and up. I actually woke up at 3 to study for my last final today and made the immediate decision to come here since, even at 3 am, my house still hadn't cooled down below 80. I will say that summer hours are different from the rest of the year, so check if you plan on coming early, especially on the weekends.

Good place to study 24 hours. Don't make noise on the 6th floor!

Why did my wife leave me

So many mixed feelings about this space. Perks: it is clean, pretty accessible, conveniently located, there's an easy-access PokémonGo gym, and the library is staffed by super awesome people. I also really dig the scanners, of which there are an abundance on multiple floors. Forgot your mouse, headphones, charging cable, board game, etc.? Check them out from the front desk! The rotunda is really nice and has distractingly beautiful views, but be prepared to fight your peers for space. Aspects that could use improvement: not enough study space unless you claim your table early (and the competition for space ramps up as the quarter progesses); no public microwave, not even in the lousy Java II area (if they ever get one, they'll easily earn back a star from me); events take priority and people studying get bumped out of study spaces. Dress in layers because the temperature is unpredictable. Also there are not bathrooms on every floor and there is only one way in and out of the library.

The best place to study, bar none, especially with a pair of noise-canceling headphones checked out from the library!

Great hours and very nice inside. If you want quiet, you can easily find it.

Erica Nunya

Rentable study rooms, lots of computers, printers, copiers, library staff that do right by students. Coffee shop access both inside and out. Silent floor offers focused space.

Josef Vincent

Safe place where all ideas are constructed upon

Shivani Wanjara

Best place to study. Heads down and working environment. People understand the rules and are super co-operative. Staff is fantastic. The books if not available the staff will make sure you are notified when it is. Returning books also super simple. Love the drop box feature they have outside the library. Saves a lot of time.

Maria Amundson

It's always quite and there's room for group or individual studying.

Tri Tran

Reem AL-AMRI

Great!

Alyssa Pollard

Beautiful and quiet location.

Joshua Keihl

I couldn't quite get a read on this place...guess I didn't spend enough time here in college...

Chiira

Great place to study if you don't want to be distracted at home. 6th and 1st floors are usually the emptiest and most quiet

David Horn

Nice place to work, but gets very crowded around finals

Nick Carleson

Librarians very helpful, amazing inventory of items to check out
