St James Town Library has a community center attach to it, which explain why the library look large from the outside and yet its a small branch.
It’s a pretty open spaced library, large windows for lot of sunlight to be let in. It has decent room to sit and read and maybe study. Thou the library does have two large study rooms for groups if you do need a spot for groups because you may not find it else where.
The branch had 10 computer in middle and two express off the side near the entrance. It has a decent collection, it’s a nice looking library despite it size its not a bad library. Probably better then going to Parliament which is bigger but St James town doesn’t have same usual issue that Parliament does.

I used to live in the area years and years ago… I still remember walking down to the closest library down to Parliament and Gerrard. Oh and there was this mobile library that comes by once a week parked inside St James Town!
Then finally now this neighbourhood has its own library at 2004! A great addition to this community as the apartments in the area has a lot of kids and seniors that benefits from the services.
Love all those floor to ceiling windows, letting the sunlight in and make the space more open.
The design itself has won awards including Design Exchange Awards (Bronze Award) and Toronto Architecture and Urban Design Award.
