Bayshore Library

Excellent staff, resources, workspaces. Essential for our community and kids.

This is a fairly new branch of the Daly City Public Library, no more than 2 years old. It’s hidden in a residential neighborhood, I would’ve never known it existed if my sister didn’t tell me.
It’s very clean and small with a limited selections but you still get the essentials like books and magazines (Cosmo, People, Instyle), CDs and DVDs, the encyclopedias, and a children’s reading room. I wouldn’t come here expecting to find info for a research paper but the free Wifi was way faster than the DSL I had at home. That’s one for speed.
It is also located next to The Bayshore Community Center so there was noise coming from the kids playing outside and they sporadically popped in-​n-​out of the library to chitchat with their friends who were inside browsing the internet. I was not short of entertainment as there were elderlies burping and snoring loudly. This library would be too noisy for any college student to get any serious studying done. There were cubicles with outlets to plug in your laptops and you could always put on your headset to block out the noise, like what I was doing.
This is a perfect hideout if I ever want to disappear from the public.
