The Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh on Forbes Ave is the biggest library in the city. It is absolutely huge! They have floors of books and friendly staff to help you navigate the library. The computers are available for you to use and you can pay to print pages. You can also reserve books or movies ahead of time and they will contact you when they are available for you to pick up. The library is in a beautiful building that is connected to the History museum, so if you plan on going there, you may consider spending a little extra time to check out the museum. Also, I should mention that traffic/parking is sometimes a hassle. I use the pay parking behind the library as the easiest option.
