Amazing library for a small community. I am recovering from surgery and spent the last two days here doing research, reading, and surfing the web. I have felt extremely comfortable and the staff has been extremely helpful.
The bay is literally a two minute walk away for a breathtaking view and nice lunch. This is a must stop for any book lover!

The St Heliers Public Library is such a refreshing break from some of the really tragic books for sale at some of the nearby book shops in St Heliers — as opposed to all of the commercial crap that people seem to love to read and buy, the St Heliers Library (in typical library fashion) has lots of really interesting non-fiction books that I am quite prone to getting distracted by whenever I am in there. The library has computers with internet available, a lot of space to study or read, and also free wifi if you have brought a laptop along. However I will warn you that because of the location, which is a very family-oriented area, there are often events on in the kids section (such as story telling and the like). So if you are a parent then this could be great, but if you are a student and are looking for a quiet place to study, then I would definitely go during school hours, otherwise noise-levels could be a bit high for your preference.

Great sense of community in this library. And really awesome staff. It has all the usual library things — Wriggle and Rhyme, book club meets, Story Time, computers to use. The main thing of note that comes to mind is that it doesn’t have a very big teen fiction section since there’s no high school nearby. Which also means there aren’t heaps of teens hanging out. I’ll let you decide if that’s a good thing or not.
It’s also nice that this library’s near the beach. Grab a book and relax for the day, or bring your kids and do the books-then-beach thing. There’s a bus stop right outside the library which is handy too.

Just look at it! St Helier’s is a cute little library, it’s like something out of a storybook.
I always think of the St Helier’s library as a ‘ladies’ library’ — although I’m not quite sure what that means. I think it means it’s just very pleasant. It’s tidy and quiet inside and the seletion of books, as for all public libraries, is selected to suit the community it serves — so if you can imagine what the ladies (and gents) of St Helier’s would most like to read, then that’s what they have.
The childrens’ section is particularly cute (although very small), and they have lots of nice displays. There’s also a good community noticeboard and they hold bookclubs there too.
