Portola Branch Library

$0.20 copies w coins( no pennies) and select dollar bills made printing scanned paper copies easy. I learned I can send from home too. Re: noise, once children are in, slight noise to occasional flares. Librarians typically tell them to Quiet down. I like the individual chairs on margins by windows. It's a nice place to "get away" to a Safe place.

Love this place. All the staffs were very helpful, and the manager Nicole has done a great job to make this place so wonderful!

Check out the community garden too!

Cute little library next to my child's middle school. Friendly and helpful librarians and it looks like a quiet safe space for many young people that show up to study. My child found a decent selection of manga, which they love.

Very nostalgic and the librarians are incredibly kind.

It is a 😹 joy.i can walk over there from my house. I can check out any book in the whole entire San Francisco library system and it will be there in a couple of days and then I get an email that says it's ready. Then I walked over there and grab my books or videos. It is truly a wonderful library.

One of the smaller branches within the SFPL but still houses a good book selection. Plenty of tables to work, and good WiFi throughout. Attentive staff as well with lots of programming for children.

I really like this library. It is convenient because it is near my house. They offer free wifi; thus, I come here to study whenever the wifi at my house run into trouble. This library is really good.

Open daily. Not too noisy. Friendly staff. Quiet place to read.

Great for kids activities. You can read books and checkout puzzles and games. The community space is excellent for the kids too.

Best library ever thanks to the amazing branch manager, Nicole. She makes the Portola Library a warm and welcoming place for all patrons.

Nice clean library with great magazines and newspapers galore!

Also, I found the librarian and staff to be very helpful and nice!
