Weekes Branch Library

I really like going here there’s lots of table space where you can go ahead and lay out all your things to do your projects comfortably and the chairs there are extremely comfortable it’s a lot more quieter if you go in the weekdays in the morning time with you have any chance to I think that’s the best time for anybody to go to get serious work done as for the computers do you’re always going to see a line for that at least the times that I’ve gone however if you go ahead and bring your own laptop there’s free Wi-​Fi there so you shouldn’t necessarily have to worry about it and don’t worry there’s lots of plugins reason go ahead and charge your cell phone plus your laptop comfortably
The reason why I give this place to 5 is that the staff there is really helpful and professional and they will go ahead and help you look for a certain book that you need in there in main branch library and they really prompt of calling you when its has arrived this place is extremely clean and up to date

A good library if you happened to be in the South f Hayward area. Just be early being here for the parking fills up quickly and you might wait for a long while to get a parking space. This is why i bring my bicycle going to this place because there’s plenty of locking brackets for bike parking but there’s about 12 car space + 2 for disabled person’s parking. Parking spaces aside, this library is great but the selection of books and DVD’s are very limited. Your best bet in the one in C Street in downtown Hayward where it’s a much bigger library. Wi-​fi is free and fast in this library but the people working behind the counters have a bot of an attitude and most don’t smile at you.

Small town library that has been around for years. I was in elementary going to this library to rent books and VHSs (yea, it’s pretty old lol). I now come here once in a while to bring documents from the public computers open to all (so long as you have a library card) and/​or print from my laptop. The library is equipped with wifi so bringing your laptop comes in handy.
I think when I’m blessed with children and if I’m still in the area, I’d bring my little ones here as they have activities (reading, etc) catered specifically for the young and I love that.
During the school year it can get pretty loud but that’s to be expected with all the school kids. Overall, not a bad little library to rent some books.

Convenient location, right near Weekes Park although the parking lot is hella small. Park alongside the park or the next block down, walking is good 4 ya! It’s a small library but it is open Saturday. I didn’t know the main library on C Street was closed Saturdays until I attempted to go at 11. There may be a line at the machines when checking out, but it’s manageable.

Small, community library, which explains all the loud, hyperactive children, and the fact that most of the customers don’t speak English. Still, this seems RIGHT at the Weekes Branch; it is an outpost of progress in hostile territory, if you catch my meaning there, suh.
For that reason, I am far more accepting of chaos & bedlam here than I am at the Main Library downtown. The latter SUCKS & STINKS, and it should not. Oh well…

great people wifi is good. nice books to check out. i think you get 90 minutes at the computer. and now they check out chrome books.
awesome staff.

I really enjoy this Library because there are a lot of activities going on that my son loves to participate in. On Tuesdays they have Preschool story time, on Fridays they have Music and Movement where the kids get to sing songs and dance and on Saturdays they have Spanish Stories and Craft. All are really interactive and fun.
They have a nice big selection of kids books here too with some toys. My son LOVES reading so going to the Library is always a nice treat for him. After the classes, he loves to get on the computer (make sure you sign up for it) where he can play and learn more for 20 minutes. Then we go and pick out some books and he reads one or 2 to me and the rest we take out. After our trip to the Library we leave and BAM we’re in a nice park where he can play more and work off all that energy!
It’s great to go in the mornings because once we’re done my son’s exhausted and it’s his nap time! Perfect combination of learning and fun!

I take my toddler son here every Monday for their Monday morning Play and Learn Group. I really enjoy this group because the facilitators are nice and very engaging and the other parents I’ve met there are also very friendly. The toys and activities offered are varied and wonderful. They have everything from make-​believe to wooden trains to push cars to a sand activity area that is filled with rice (brilliant!). If you’re interested in the 1115a or 1230p class, make sure you sign up early because they fill up quickly. You must show up in person to sign up.
Aside from the class, the library itself is delightful. I like how the children’s side is in the east wing, where you don’t have to worry about your kid being loud. The kids book area is great also because there are «quiet» toys such as boards available for the toddlers to enjoy while the parents and older siblings browse for books. The only thing that could be better about this location is the paucity of board books. My son is very into «flipping» the pages of board books right now so the fact that their collection is limited to two small baskets in a corner is very sad.
I love the self-​service scanning kiosks and the friendly librarians as well. I look forward to class every Monday and hanging out afterwards, chatting with other parents and looking for books to borrow. Clean and well-​kept location. Great little library!

I’ve never wanted to strangle out teenagers and kids more in my life. There’s a park nearby, why don’t you be loud there? If you come after 2pm-​3pm, expect cell phones, babies, and bored teenagers.
And why does this library open at 11am Monday-​Wednesday? That’s way too late.
The DVD section is still great.

I really enjoy going to this library and park, which is located right next to it. We always find what we need, and my kids and I can enjoy some time together at the spacious park which is directly next door. Weekes Park and library is a good place to go.
