Queens Public Library at Arverne | Queens, NY

It's small. But it's clean. Welcoming. Inviting. Anytime I go there it's not overly crowded or loud. They deserve a larger space. And the workers are always very helpful. Looking forward to the expansion.

Such a magical place, staff are all amazing and unique in their own ways. Many activities for children ages 1 and up. A big blessing to have this in our community

I literally grew up in this library. Lived directly across the street in 319, it was the main place I was allowed to go even when in punishment. It's great to see it's still there and all the positive reviews. Staffing was great when I was growing there in the 80's it's so good to see some things haven't changed 40 years later. I googled to look it up and see images, very pleasantly surprised.

The librarian was super helpful! Plenty of empty computers (2 pm Weekday). There was also a free show for children with live reptiles! So cool!!

The security guard actually tells people to keep it down if it gets too loud. If you got essays to type or midterms to study for, go here. Update: Has a really small adult area that gets taken over by homeless people sleeping or taking their shoes off. Becomes a distraction when someone shows up after you start work for an hour and literally starts snoring or stinking it’s bad.
