Reviews of Bethnal Green Library

One of the best libraries in Tower Hamlets. We found great collection of books for adults and kids. Librarians are friendly and did their best to find books according to the interests. The Library is big and light. It has the required amenities for great time spending individually and with family or friends. Also this historical building is fabulous because of its internal decoration and almost 100 years of history.

Nice little library for the area. Would be a great place to work on a laptop, except that there are no electrical outlets anywhere -- they should really just put in a few extension cords with power strips. Wifi is great though, and fast. I'd give it 4 stars except for the lack of outlets, and also that the children's area is just a sectioned-off area in the main room, so you'll need good headphones to get anything done.

A beautiful and wonderful building I found the librarians truly amazing and their prime time club is such a good idea It's steeped in so much history of which the staff can fully inform you off and it has the most stunning grounds around it followed up my a visit to one of the local coffee houses it makes for the perfect day !!! See for yourself

A decent library with very friendly staff and free wifi. You will need some kind of an identification document and proof of address to get a library card. They are not very strict about the later. Cleanliness could be improved, the electricity plugs need thorough check. Some of them look quite dangerous.

I love quiet and authentic looking libraries and the Bethnal Green is exactly that. I also find the room with desks very useful for studies as it silent and not very busy at all. I used to enjoy going to the Whitechapel Idea Store but it was way too loud and crowded with hardly any work area.

It's such a classic community library, right by the park. Should be used more, but the librarians are SO noisy! Maybe that's why there aren't more people? I guess if more of us used it, they'd be busier and quieter,not talking about telly programmes quite so much. Ideastore, can you work at updating the opening hours on the Google page that comes up? Today you are updating computers and not open till Saturday 2nd January. If there are alterations to opening hours they've GOT to be updated on the main public platform. Go for it. You're meant to be our info gurus! Such a pity you don't do more marketing to the local area too - a great resource, even after the refurb and less space.

Beautiful library, free entrance without registration.

A basic, community library. There's nothing particularly great about the range of books on offer, though, comparing it to that in the IDEA store in Whitechapel, it could be said to be relatively impressive. There's a large study area (read: place devoid of books) with desks, chairs and, if you're lucky, plugs for your laptop. Apparently, there is Free WiFi, but with special instructions for the choice of proxy, I couldn't get it to work. If you can't get it to work, you're out of luck: staff have been instructed not to provide any assistance. Still, they have a decent range of books (though they're not quite in the right order) and in my opinion, that's all that matters. Don't forget to check out the fish near the entrance.

The staff are friendly and there are plenty of spaces to sit and work or read. The book selection is ok, not great, but staff can help you find what you need through the London inter-library loan system.

Gorgeous building, great selection. However is now shut because the NHS are using it as a research centre.

Z. J.

Very small library with limited hours and selection relative to other Idea Stores. Beautiful old building.
