Ortega Branch Library

Lovely library. Not super huge in size but huge selection of all sorts of resources beautifully organized.

Filled with sea blues and contoured lines.
Large collection of Chinese books and Russian, too.

Children's area. Teen Area.
Program area - separate room with tables and chairs.

Outside area where you can see the ocean, read a book outside.

Laptops you can use.

Large windows so there is plenty of light - important in the foggy Sunset.

Next to Giannini Middle School, Sunset Elementary, and very importantly, West Sunset Playground - a large size playground. You can really make a morning or afternoon of library and playground if you are looking for family, kid-friendly activities.

One of the best SF library branches: great layout, fantastic kids and teens sections, lots of light, a backyard with benches and view of the ocean.

Super awesome library! I needed to use a computer and printer and left with a library card too after super helpful interactions with busy and yet attentive staff.
What a beautiful place with that patio to read overlooking the sea. I noticed the non fiction section had some interesting titles which seemed updated and relevant.

Great place to tutor math as they have a private study room you can use by the hour. It’s first come first serve, but if you come an hour after school gets out it’s most likely available.

I like the coziness of it and wonderful view of the beach. On Saturday you can walk to devils teeth and get bkfast and walk to the library to read study or draw

perfect. a space to study, hang out. I go to A.P. Giannini so im right nearby and the library is the perfect sport to be after a long day of school.

I miss the library. I don't read like I use to, but the staff was super friendly in helping me learn how the new machines work.

Beautiful library with a great layout, huge windows looking out at the Pacific and tons of natural light. Lots of table space and a large book/media collection. Large community room for activities.

It has many variety of books and audio books for kids and adults

Such a great little library. If they don’t have it, books can be transferred within a couple days. They are well-staffed, clean and situated right next to/within the newly remodeled Sunset Playground, where you can grab a book and read on a nice day!

This library was recently remodeled, and it’s a pretty clean library with the exception of the washrooms, which could be a little bit dirty.

Perhaps one of the best libraries in SF. hidden gem. weekend early daytime; the culture, families, elders, pets, serene celebration vibes; harmony. secret garden path nearby closer to SI

Been there since I was in elementary school (I'm now a high school student). The staffs are really nice and helpful. It is also very clean ever since after the remodeling.

Librarians are wonderful, kid friendly space and it's right next to a large playground with basketball and tennis courts.

So quiet and having fun some time but here have a lot of kid so be careful when u r driving and parking

Great Library! Try it. Staff are friendly and helpful. If you don't find the book you want then you can search it up and place a hold.

Great local branch, after the renovation is clean and spacious, good wifi and nice basketball, baseball, and tennis courts nearby.

It's nice to have one close by. At least I can show my kids what a library looks like.

Great functional library. Nice sculptures in the front. Inviting and nice views of the ocean.

Modern and well staffed. Monthly programs, recycle batteries and borrow laptops.
