This review is solely based on quality in terms of a place to study. First the good: great staff, tons of computers, good amount of seating. The bad: The place is extremely loud when compared to other libraries. If you are studying for something serious (like I was) I would 100% recommend you stay away from this place; especially during certain hours. At around 2:45pm some of the kids from the school next door will come and hang out in the library while they wait for their parents to pick them up. Essentially it's a free daycare making it a nightmare from about 3-7pm on weekdays. During my 2 month study experience I've seen all types of things happen nearby me: kids playing tag, soccer, football, practicing karate. Expect loud bursts of laughter and/or kids sprinting past you to take you out of your concentration. Don't get me wrong the staff tries to "shhhhh" everyone but the effect only lasts like 2 seconds and it's right back to how it was. There is ZERO volume control here. It's a little bit better earlier in the day but occasionally you'll get a group of people whom are having a meeting or something at one of the tables and they are flat out talking at normal volume. Bottom line: Hands down the loudest library I've ever been in. Generally avoid unless you have good headphones. Avoid like the plague weekdays from 3-7pm during the school year. With all the things that are always happening in this place it's better off called the Palisades Park recreational center with books.

Staff is always friendly whenever I go over there. They have a nice area where anyone could get there school work done at. For those of you that need to concentrate on studying for that big test go here its pretty quiet. They also have computers if you need to print out some stuff as well.

Worst facilities among NJ libs. However, staffs are friendly and has good wifi connection. Seats are limited though.
