Maria W: Beautiful library and awesome activities. Good for kids! Just be cautious about the parking you entered could be the one belongs to the school, if gate shut at night you won’t get your car parked in there.
Ward Vandewege: Beautiful building with lots of services for the community. And tons of materials to borrow, obviously.
Hayley: Gorgeous library but it seems people have forgotten what the hell a library is supposed to w. Had one baby crying/screaming for 20 minutes, another woman talking the entire time she was there, people’s phones going off…I just need a quiet space to study and no where in this library has that. It seems everyone has forgotten their manners since COVID.
Daren Blomquist: Nice spot to go and study with plenty of desks and chairs and tons of light to keep it from having the traditional dark and dank library vibe.
Vanessa: Beautiful place, helpful staff
Danny De Gug: My library the Cambridge Main Library is outstanding and filled with great wonderful Souls. Of course my very enzyme Librarians everyone's individual there at the library we have snack machines yeah we also have the privilege pandemic permitting of bringing it out on food to munch on whether it's from a pizza shop or I'm home we are most certainly welcome to enjoy something to eat in the right locations of the library. I am so thankful to the wonderful City management that we enjoy in the city of Cambridge particularly in our library
Johnny A, Gilberti, lll: Greatest Library ever built,,,wonderful and very friendly staff at the front desk,,,,great selection of DVD s. and Book,,,, A BEAUTIFUL GLASS BUILDING ON THE SITE OF THE CAMBRIDGE PLAYGROUND and PARK FOR EVERYONE,,,THE LIBRARY is a CAMBRIDGE LANDMARK IN A HISTORICAL NEIGHBORHOOD,,,,,I GIVE THE CAMBRIDGE PUBLIC LIBRARY 10 gold stars🧑🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🌞🌈😀✌🏻✌🏻
Rishi Nijhawan: Awesome place!!! I love this library!! Architecture is amazing!!
Amber Wilkerson: So glad that it's open for browsing! There is metered parking out front on the street and a parking garage down below (pay inside)
R Munoz: Great selection of books, friendly staff too! I want to check out the Beehive more but normally am not free for their hoursYou can use a Minuteman library card for any of their locations (Main, Central, Somerville, Valente, etc)
Hullio GQ: Nice place to get work done. Fast internet and chilly cold AC for a hot day. Very relaxed environment and staff are friendly.
Asdf Jklc: Really great library system. I live in Boston, and borrow books from both Boston and Cambridge public libraries. Though BPL is presumably among the best in the world, about 1/3 of the time Cambridge library system will have an obscure older book that Boston won't. Smaller suburban branches of Cambridge public library harbor amazing old stuff.

Cambridge Public Library - O'Neill Branch: what do users think?
Abhilash Nambiar: This is a public library attached to a school. They had all signs that made people feel welcome, I mean the rainbow flag, the BLM sign covering the school name. All in all, a very homely and normal place. And the selection of books, magnificent! I have not seen anything like that all my life! I think what people like best about the library is the exposure it gives to their children to people from all walks of life. The public can go in to the library, so can the kids, they can interact under the watchful eye of the staff, of course! The iron fence provides the same opportunity. Although there children interact without adult supervision. I am sure it is all very safe, they have experts look into this. And we all trust experts all the time.
Brandy L: Love this library the gentleman was so sweet
Jackie S.: Great local library. Selection is small but diverse and it's a good way for people who live close to reserve books from other libraries. Staff is always very friendly.
Megan Marrs: Small size and selection, but large children's section and a handful of tables (with close plug access) for working. Really fast WiFi too!
Carolee: So wonderful the libraries are open again after covid. Good to see familiar staff members too!
Tom Gould: In noon-quarantine times, quiet for adults working until the Peabody school lets out. Great for kids. Wonderful librarians. Closed Tuesdays. Rserve books, videos, audiobooks online through the Minuteman Libraries' app or website and pick them up at the O'Neill. After teachers go home, park in the lot off Yerxa St.
Rosalie Lynne: One of my favorite places to go with my kids
Allyson Goose: Strong selection, nice kids' area and very nice staff! Also love that there's an abundance of read-alongs, book groups, classes, and special activities over vacation weeks.
Katia Johnson: Everything is readily available.
John Carman: best little library branch
Noah Schulz: Great neighborhood branch of the wonderful Cambridge public library system. I just wish it was open in the weekend!
Shimon Rura: Great Kids book selection.
Allison O: A wonderful little library branch. Friendly helpful librarians. Minuteman library network resources are great.
Lanita Foley: The best team of librarians!
Angela VC: This is a small branch but the librarians are wonderful and treat patrons like family.

zina saadi: Teaches kids to be independent by offering own library cards
Ben Jackson: Great little branch of the CPL. It is small but the service is great and they have cool events and programs for kids here.
Nicole Stone: superb local hang out- very kid friendly

Cambridge Public Library - Central Square Branch: what do users think?
Mary Kate Phillips: Semi okay, they allow the homeless to watch streaming shows . And fully occupy the library. When others actually would like do work on the computer. Isn’t right. When you sign up for a computer. You won’t be able to use. Also the computer system is always changing so then they won’t assist in showing you.
김christine: Very good. But unfortunately, there is no parking place.
Ellen Sciales: Great people!
Family Matters: It was really messed up that they shut down the computer at 5:55 when they close at 6, without even asking if anyone was in the middle of printing, which I was. Absolutely ridiculous.
Stephanie Joseph: what an experience! the kids floor has a super cute play / reading area, tons of books , dvds. we walked in pretty late and didn’t realize the kids area had already been closed (they close at 6 ). the employees , helen, ana and another gentleman. i forgot to jot down his name. they were super kind and allowed us to grab what we needed. my son was searching for a specific book and they were so happy to assist us in finding it. unfortunately we couldn’t locate it but our trip ended with opening library cards for both my son and i. helen and ana shared some really cool benefits of having a library card for this location which you can use at a few others( not sure off the top of my head). you can also reserve passes once a month. the zoo included!!! which sign me all the way for saving coins. overall this was such a great library trip and super cool liberians. we will absolutely be visiting again. thank you for such a sweet and warm welcome.
Albert Gnadt: It's fine, but when I went there in late winter once there were a lot of homeless people inside who talked loudly. Haven't been back.
M: My friend and I came in tonight to resume her tax return, and there were no computer stations readily available nor was there a queue where we could log a position in line to wait for a computer station either... come to find out! Despite this, a very helpful librarian by the name of Felicia came to our aid immediately and looked for an available Chromebook provided by the public library for us to use. I am so thankful for her being there, since she was the only one who was readily helpful and eager to assist my friend and I. Thank you again, Felicia!
Micaelle verissimo: Estou amando!Eles oferecem cursos gratuitos de inglês e é muito simples realizar o cadastro para pegar livros emprestados. Basta um comprovante de residência e um documento com foto. Funcionário pacientes e extremante atenciosos.Lugar perfeito!
Lawrence Stanton: Good
Matias Ramos: Superb library
Kevin Bernstein: Computer room is a great resource! Staff are helpful and knowledgeable. Used to live right on magazine street, 8 years ago. Been going there ever since. Great DVD section.My only complaint is the homeless people sleeping in some of the wooden cubicles on the main floor, suffering from apparent mental illness, alcoholism and substance addiction. They even sleep outside this library , during the warmer months.This is one of the reasons I closed my storage unit at the Cambridge U-Haul facility, on Main Street . At lease, the library doesn't have the rat problems, U-Haul has!
Arnetta Shepherd: This library is very small in comparison to the 4 other ones. Unfortunately, homelessness and everthing that goes with it hangs out there. Its filthy outside. But I'm excited about the renovation project coming soon.
Josh Salvi: I love this library! The services are outstanding! Support your local library!
Bruja Ortiz: I love all Libraries. I love Books! I love the feeling of holding onto a book before bed and sinking off into another world, other than my own! If I had the meens to have my very own home with a very huge library filled with all kinds of books ... and a fireplace, and a very comfy chair. I would be ONE VERY HAPPY LADY! Thank you to all the librarians out there.... who help us to escape for awhile .... Thank you to all the kind ones at the Central Square branch! You have all been so very helpful and kind
Evangelical Episcopal: My favorite, childhood library; many, many good memories.
Owen Bligh: Great resource in the neighborhood. Helpful and friendly staff.
Margaret Swire: My childhood library.
Shirley Sosa: I absolutely LOVE kids crafts night! And all the staff there is pretty cool.
Shamim Ahmed: It's more helpful for all of Cambridge people
Sonia Andujar: The staff , the books, and computer room are superb but one of my favorites ON THE WALL GALLERY allow all types of artists to exhibit....thanks.
Jeinner Alexander Bastos Vega: amazing library....

Cambridge Public Library - O'Connell Branch: what do users think?
Priya A: Our first CPL library experience started here and we've always loved visiting this library. The librarians are kind, knowledgeable and helping. They're open to chatting about books and their love for books are evident.
lynda brattoya: There was a meet-and-greet here today, out front in the garden. Ingred and Al presiding, coffee and various baked goods, (there were no leftovers!), people wore nametags and mingled with neighbors. Just the sort of outreach a neighborhood needs.
Janine Kunz: Very kind and helpful staff. I saw the building was still under construction so I called to confirm their hours (currently limited.) A great local branch with access to greater Boston public library resources.
Robert Blood: It's closed for renovation
Abhivyakti Sawarkar: I like the location, the size, the collection and being there.
Messy Recipe: Very kind staff, I have checked out a few mystery books here and have used their computer for printing a few times as well. It is a small library, but they have a rather large selection, which includes movies and tv shows as well.They also have a children's reading group which I think happens in the early afternoons.I love this library and it is local to me, so it is well located.
Jennifer Britton-Colonnese: wonderful neighborhood library!
Hallie Carpenter: The library itself it good, it's small but it does the trick. They have a decent selection of books, story hour for children and computers/printers available. The librarians are friendly but they are constantly speaking loudly to each other and to patrons, it's very distracting.
Eagle Sean: Friendly staff and Chinese books!

Thomas Marsh: Tiny library but the friendly and helpful staff are great and you can order in any books you need.
Sudeep Agarwala: Love this library! It has the best staff.
Marge MacEvitt: Always new books and friendly, helpful librarians!
Leah Klein: Our favourite neighborhood library. We used to come here for children’s story time. It is an excellent small library with movies, fiction, non fiction and a children’s area. The librarians are very helpful and knowledgeable.
Bennett Chaney: It is really great to have a neighborhood library that is clean and full of light. The furniture is kind of uncomfortable if you plan on sitting and working there for more than an hour. I appreciate the casual atmosphere and feeling comfortable if I have to make a phone call.
Nicolai Cauchy: hreat people, great kids area with dedicated activities, but a small dvd selection (you can always order via the Minuteman Library Network online MNLlib - NOT the WOW intermediary link thats now popping up a lot).
Daniel Wang: Although there isn't a lot of books at the library, the staff is really nice and helpful.
