Pleasant Hill Library - Contra Costa County Library

This library is awesome! I wish I had this near my place when I was growing up!

3D printer, beautiful building & landscaping, fun activities for kids, bike parking out front.

They did a great job with this library. Excellent Charge point chargers in the parking lot. Easy to use kiosks for checking in and out books. Very helpful staff. And a small playground for the kids. Lots of community events too.

I'm not too sure if I was able to explore the entire library, but even though it looks large from the outside, it's actually kind of small and everything is extremely spaced out, which i guess is good if you're into looking at new releases, but when you have kids and stuff the kids are is all crammed in together. Really like the outdoor play area that was a plus and it seems like they have a big toddler mommy community that comes out to do all the stay-at-home mom stuff.

A very good library as far as I can tell. Spacious, quiet. Has a decent amount of activities for kids. Has offices you can use if you sign up. Plenty of workstations with access to the internet if you need it.

Going to the library brings back childhood memories of feeling safe to explore. Of course the building has all the latest technical advancements but at its core are books!

Best library- wonderful facilities, beautiful views of trees

I stopped by the Pleasant Hill library after checking out the new development on Oak Park Blvd. A very lively library that is well maintained. They have shelves near the entrance for books pick up (what a great service). Good selections of books, separate areas for different age groups, and separate study rooms!

This library is perfect for those with little ones! They have an incredible selection of children’s books for all ages, and a beautiful, interactive outdoor play area for children, as well as a story time area! I will say, if you’re looking for somewhere super quiet to study, this isn’t the library for you as it’s just one large room and it has a LOT of echo. For me though, as a mom with littles, it’s perfect!

I am floored that this is a public library - it's one of the most beautiful libraries I've seen! But the real reason I'm here: to thank the cape-less hero who helped me this evening. I walked in 10 minutes before closing needing to print something. He saw me out of the corner of his eye and interrupted his conversation to ask if I needed assistance. He set me up with a computer to print, and when I needed help, was literally running to the front desk to problem-solve before closing. Running! Before closing! To help someone print something in a public library! The average person doesn't do that for strangers. It's these small acts of kindness that make me excited about humanity and about being out in the world. THANK YOU sir with the short brown curly hair, jeans, and green plaid shirt. The world is grateful for your positivity.

The new library is beautiful. It is very modern looking but still friendly and welcoming. Nice open areas to sit, laptops to check out, phone charging and electrical sockets. And the bookshelves are very neat. Staff is super friendly. Beautiful.

Wow what a cool library, it's modern yet so cozy. I love the giant window facing nature. The only issues are there aren't a lot of tables to study/work and it closes too early on some days.

The staff are very helpful. Special shoutout to Patrick for his outstanding service - he’s very accommodating and goes out of his way to help patrons get the books they want or need. My son really enjoys graphic novels and he’s helped us customize our grab bag! I heard how busy the library is with short staff so thank you, Patrick, for the extra kindness!😊

Definitely not a great place to study. But it's a great place for little kids to hang out !! We enjoyed the story time on both Wednesday and Friday. It is like going to a concert. It's very entertaining for parents to engage as well.

I really like this library! It’s modern, and stylish! Not like some of the other ones in the area that are stuffy and outdated!

My favorite library. The place is spacious yet cozy, beautifully designed, and the staff are always helpful.

Nice modern building. Today there was a concert.

Very Beautiful for a City Hall

We always receive great service here. Right now we are listening to the Harry Potter series on CD and that's possible thanks to the library's ability to lend out books on CD.

Friendly, helpful, and courteous staff! Comfortable place to read to our young children.

Storytime with Patrick is awesome. The kids love him and he is brilliant at entertaining the adults too!
