Beautiful library in Bethnal Green situated in the park. From the side of evening looks very historic and from the inside it is bright with high ceiling.
There is a designated area for children and there is a mural on the wall. It is very eye catching.
The staff is very helpful as well. I forgot to bring my card. They could retrieve my information from the system by having my last name and date of birth. I was able to borrow some book without the card.
There is a water fountain and public bathroom.

beautiful library, kind staff, great study room!
Wide variety of books, comfortable study spaces and computer room. Extremely polite and knowledgeable staff; always willing to help. Altogether a pleasant experience. No need to update. Although the personnel has changed the staff still maintain a high level of professionalism, they demonstrate the maxim: 'A library is much more than just a place to store books.' Thanks to all at BethnalGreen Library!
The Bethnal Green Library has been my saviour for many years . This Library is really special with easy access, when using public transport, entering into Bethnal Green Gardens next to Bethnal Green underground station. This Library has the greatest selection of books for any aged . This is impressive beautiful and magnificent building . Great members of staff . 10/10
A great piece of architecture to visit for non-tourist attractions. I enjoyed taking photos here and was amazed by how well it is kept.
Books were well organised. It’s a spacious library, good for wheelchair and buggy.
Met one of the lady in Cubitt Town library for a cover day, she passionately did a nursery rhyme session which I thought was AWESOME 🙌🏻 Thank you!
My daughter liked it a lot.
So for her, I travelled to Bethnal Green library to actually experience their rhyme time. A guy was doing the session that day and he was full of energy, got the kids to jump up, follow and move about
Nice work guys!
Everyone enjoyed it.
I just want to say Thank you again!

One of my favourite London libraries, mainly because the staff there create such a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. They also clearly have a genuine love for books, as well as a profound knowledge of their books that they are more than happy to share with visitors who might need help or advice. The children's library is particularly well stocked. On top of that it is a beautiful heritage building about to celebrate its centenary. During the pandemic it was threatened with closure, which if it had gone ahead would have been a tragic loss for the community in Bethnal Green. I remember the days when the children's library was a separate space, a better arrangement but one that had to end because of staffing cuts. People, if we want to keep our libraries as places where both visitors and ideas are welcome, we must use them - go there, chat to the librarians and take a book out, or two!
One of the best libraries in Tower Hamlets. We found great collection of books for adults and kids. Librarians are friendly and did their best to find books according to the interests. The Library is big and light. It has the required amenities for great time spending individually and with family or friends. Also this historical building is fabulous because of its internal decoration and almost 100 years of history.
