::The City of Calgary has to do something about the homeless problem. They cannot just sweep it under the rug. As a result, hundreds of homeless Calgarians come to the Downtown Library to loiter, sleep, and just to keep warm. Would it be so expensive to build more affordable housing to help them get back on their feet? It's disheartening, and somewhat annoying when there are 20 benches and 20 desks being used by people less fortunate, if you want to read or check out a book that the Public Library has. It would be beneficial and cost effective to the city to provide these people with low income housing, and mental health support.

::On September 20th, I was looking for directions when I came to the Central Library. There was a woman by the name of Sanjila Bhan working there. She showed me the directions to where I was going, explained it, and gave me a copy of the directions on Google Maps. To top it of, multiple people, say about 4, were asking her questions as well. She was still professional and helped every one of us with the care and attention we needed. Sanjila Bhan was very helpful and it makes me want to come back to the library again. Central Library please treat Sanjila Bhan well! Thank you Sanjila Bhan!

::Ganz vernünftige Bücherei. Hat eine gute Auswahl an Büchern, wobei ich nicht verstehe warum es nicht eine zentrale Bücherei gibt mit allen Büchern. So ist alles in der Stadt auf mehrere Zweigbüchereien verteilt. Zu wenig Plätze zum lesen...viele obdachlose, welche die Plätze besetzen und Computerspielen. Personal ist hilfsbereit.

::I really love calgary's public libraries.This one is in the downtown so easy to access. Now waiting for the new library, which is under construction right now. Facade looks beautiful, I am sure it's gonna be great as well.

::Great library. Amazing cool events like music and dance. Free education opportunities. But, it is a tough area. Three big downtown shelters within 8 or 10 blocks. That's OK. That's whats it for!
