      I like Geylang library cos it has a great store of children's books and dvds - comparatively Toa Payoh (another haunt) is good only for books but not dvds; Bedok I feel don't have extensive store of books. 😛


      But these are the only 3 in my area of 'exercise' - heard good stuff about one in Bt Batok/CCK (can't recall), supposedly very good selection of NEW children books.

          Yishun library books seem quite new


          Tampines & Bedok library books are in pretty bad conditions. I spotted torn books or books in such bad shape you don’t even want to touch

            [quote="csc"]We also love the ones at Bukit Merah and Queenstown - near the Special School , opposite a church and a hawker centre with ‘good’ food.

            Yes, love the Queenstown library! The layout is also not very complicated so I don’t get lost chasing after my DS! LOL

            Another Regional library I like is Bishan, where the children’s section is almost a whole area on its own

              hquek, I agree with jedamum that I am not impressed with the Bt Batok one at West Mall. CCK has a much better and bigger selection. Unfortunately, I am stuck with the BB one most of the time.


              If I can, I’d rather visit the ones at Jurong West (opp. Jurong Pt), Jurong East and Woodlands. They are bigger, newer and have better selections.
