De Anza College Library

Pretty decent library that offers quite a bit for the students that go here. When I attended this school I spent much of my time here studying, napping, and eating (shh no eating allowed!!).
LOTS of useful things here: Rent textbooks for a few hours or overnight, rent a calculator for a day, annoyingly load your card with money to pay for printing out your copies (10 cents a page and the damn annoying kids that can’t read the card charger thing when it says remove your card – REMOVE YOUR DAMN CARD so it stops beeping DUH), wifi, and the website offers a lot of articles that you can’t immediately find through other search engines. Their website also helps you with citations and writing formats, computers in the middle of the entrance, then to the left of that along the wall, and then there’s a small-​ish computer lab upstairs that does have different hours of operation. it varies at times.
They also have quite a few private rooms where you can work on a project with classmates. You have to reserve it and you can’t reserve the room for yourself, or even with one other person. I guess they allow threesomes, no twosies. :p
What I found to be really annoying though, was the lady who works here that uses a motorized wheelchair. When she’s around, she monitors the place like a damn hawk. She’s great for a few reasons because there are students that wait to use the computer and so people shouldn’t be playing games and on Facebook all day. But at the same time, sometimes when studying I need a break so I’ll get my game on right? «YOU NOT ‘SPOSE TO BE ON THAT WEBSITE». Oh and when the library is about to close, she’ll ride past you every minute giving you a time warning. She’s quite the pest but I guess it’s good to have her.
People here are very rude as well, but consider De Anza’s students that are like half international students. They just haaaaave to be on their damn cell phone and speak so loudly so everyone can hear. You’d think there’d be SOME consideration or etiquette but I guess that’s just how cultures differ… but still – STFU!!!
