The branch features several reading areas and two enclosed study rooms (available on a first-come-first-served basis). One study room has a white board. Most tables and seating can be moved and configured to suit individual or group work.

If you require quiet space please be advised that the branch is the busiest and noisiest on weekends and Thursday afternoons. If the program room is not in use staff would be happy to open it up for those seeking quiet areas to work.

Plenty of natural light, high ceilings, and warm colors make this a warm and inviting branch.

A colourful and whimsical children's area comprised of child-sized furniture, shelving and computers and an outdoor reading garden designed in the shape of a flower. Other special features of this area are the 6 foot long aquarium, the train, tree and elephant shelving.

There is a quiet reading area with a fireplace at the back of the library.
