Southeast Regional Library

C rehearses right down the street so when I drop him off I occasionally come here to get some work done. There are plenty of tables & chairs and outlets to plug in the laptop. The men’s bathroom has been clean each time. For a smaller community library, this place is great. I have been here a few times and have not had any issues.
Clean, Nice little Library. 5 Stars.

Great great library here in Gilbert. Pretty big selection of books. parking are is very large so finding a parking spot is pretty easy. There is also a nice drop off area up front. One of the better ones here in Gilbert for sure.

Found my new favorite place to study!!! Overall, the library is very large and seems like it contains a decent amount of books to check out. There are many many computers out for guests to sign up and use for free. The youth section is HUGE. I think this library is very kids friendly (which can get pretty loud sometimes, so minus half star)
Parking: plentiful!
Atmosphere: modern, clean, and the view is awesome! Tables are large and there are plenty of seats. Wifi works great! They’re also pretty lax about food and beverages which is a big plus because I can’t study without my snacks hahaha.
My friend and I love to sit in the back of the library and stare out at the ponds and people walking by. The scenery is just so calming and serene, really helps lower my stress level (I’m in med school, so anything to remotely reduce stress is gold). I also like to zone out and imagine that I’m outside soaking in the beautiful weather instead of sitting on my behind for hours studying.
Hahaha jk, because of the library proximity to the reservation. You can easily take a walk around the ponds of the reservation as a study break. Definitely will be coming back frequently to study!

I love this library. I go there twice a week, and always have a good experience.
The fact that there are unruly parents and their children is not the fault of the library staff. You can imagine the uproar, if they tried to get these people to behave. I don’t use the computers, since I have one at home, but I can see how important it is for those who don’t. If it was in their budget, I’m sure they would expand their computer department. We are fortunate to have this facility in Gilbert.

This library has great services, plenty of books and resources, and many study tables and rooms. I really enjoy studying here because it is nice and quite. The view to Riparian Preserve is beautiful and helps me relax too.
Librarians here have been really helpful when I had questions. I also like the variety of programs for children and adults here. The only thing that could make this library better is if it had some more books. I have had a few occurrences when the resources I needed were out stocked for a long time. Otherwise, I love coming to this library.

They have a really fun story time for kids and lots of programs for all ages. This library is also on the Riparian Reserve and has tons of walking trails and animals to see. The lake has turtles and its home to a big variety of birds.

I come here to study all the time! Apart from it being a little too crowded and the tables are all taken its a good place to study, there’s also a lot of cool blue ray movies to rent, and the view on the lake when studying is breath taking!

This is by far the worst library I’ve ever been to. We came in around 4 or 5 on a weekday afternoon and we immediately noticed there was no seating. We had to wait for someone to leave just so we could sit down and do some work. The second thing we noticed was the sound. There were literally kids screaming and running around. I will bet that ANY Mcdonalds play place is quieter than here. The architecture of the building makes things echo so when people were conversing it sounded like the inside of a middle school cafeteria. It was impossible to focus and we ended up driving 10 minutes away to the Mesa red mountain library. My other complaint is that they do not offer guest passes on their computers but that wasn’t a huge deal. I only gave it two stars because it is pretty big so I’m guessing they have a good assortment of books, and the lake front view was nice (too bad there were no seats next to it). So if you only need to grab a book and leave this library will suit you. I am never coming back here and would highly not recommend this library for someone to do work at. You’re way better off working at a Starbucks or even a Mcdonalds play pen.

After many, many failed attempts to come to the library and get a library card, mostly due to my poor planning, we finally made it! I was pretty spoiled when it comes to libraries because of the Frisco, TX library which was amazing, and I am happy to report, just in case you were loosing sleep over it, that this library comes pretty close.
The library is good in size, clean and well organized. Employees are courteous and friendly. There is a separate section that has the children’s and teenage area. They have a good amount of computer stations and plenty of tables plus private rooms.
Definitely a good place to come with your children or even by yourself to spend a nice afternoon.

I love the library! The location is great for me and the kids. In ten years I’ve never had an issue with the staff. There is a good selection of books, DVDs, and magazines. Anything I can’t find on site I can usually locate within the system and place a request.

They have a great child section & also very friendly and helpful staff. Location is convenient and they also have great classes for kids & adults!

I love this library! Awesome selection of reading material, audiobooks, and movies. You can reserve a study room for free and the Wi-​Fi is reliable. I regularly select my items online, put them on hold, and pick them up at the library. Make sure to pick up your requests on time though, or you will get charged a $ 2 re-​shelving fee.

I really like my library. It is spacious and cool and organized and has lovely views of the bird sanctuary. Seems like the shelves are rather barren lately. Is it all going the way of e-​books?
I love libraries in general. This one is modern but lacks the excitement of the downtown Phoenix library or the amazing Seattle library; thus the 4 star review.
It never ceases to surprise me that 4 out of 5 times I go, it is closed. Go figure…

This was where I spent every weekend this semester to study. I love this library, the view from the large windows is better than the view from my other favorite library, Burton Barr. Nice large tables, plenty of outlets to keep electronics charged, clean bathrooms. My only complaint is that they don’t do a very good job of monitoring the noise level in the library area. I understand that some people out there don’t have a clue about what’s going on around them and allow their kids to play hide and seek and throw temper tantrums outside of the children’s section but the librarians need to regulate. I still have to give it 5 stars though because it’s so tranquil to me… when the screaming kids are gone.

I love this library! From the blu rays to the DVD’s their selection is fantastic. They have seems to have some amazingly new movies which I’m always impressed with. There are also some great CD’s to choose from.
Another this I really enjoy is the architecture. From the front the building it looks pleasant enough, but the interior seems so welcoming and relaxing for some reason. Add that to the fact that when you look out the windows at the back makes you forget where you are — like you should be duck hunting or something — and what started as a run to grab a couple books and a movie turns into a leisurely day with out a care in the world.
Except you forgot about those overdue charges… whoops!

Absolutely LOVE this library. Beautiful facility: clean, well-​lit, and organized. Easy to find what you need, website is easy to navigate (and simple to request items to place on hold), staff is very friendly and helpful. Went to our first toddler story time today and it was great! It kept my six-​month-​old baby engaged the whole time with songs, stories, puppets, etc. We love visiting this library on a weekly basis.

I like to think of myself as a library connoisseur because, well, I like libraries and I’ve been to a fair number of them. This library is awesome. It’s clean, well maintained, and has lots and lots of computers. There are sections for DVDs, blue-​ray, series on DVDs, and of course, books. But I’m going to let you in on a secret: you can go online and put anything you want on reserve for yourself (assuming you have a library card), and they will email you when your item is ready to pick up. And it’s free!
The staff has always been great. We love this library. I wish more of our tax payer money would go to fund services like these!

Nice library with TONS of computers, private study rooms, community meeting areas, and right on the Riparian Preserve and Lake. Beautiful area!

One of the cleanest libraries in the East Valley!
Staff is very helpful, even if you have to wait in a line.
Many options available for patrons. Nice little book store in front to purchase books. Bathrooms are clean and well maintained.
We love coming to this library!

I love this library so much. They have a great layout, a perfect location and friendly staff. Their website is extremely helpful. You can search for your books online, request a hold then pick them up in the reserved section under your name.
I liked the library so much, I begun volunteering a couple weeks ago. The staff is so nice to the volunteers. I feel very welcome here.
