Our picks

Reddit named 5. These are the next best by work score, one branch per chain.

  1. 大阪府立中之島図書館

    Library, 北区中之島1丁目2-10

    Recommended ×3

    , work score 100
    There is a large block of priority seats for brought-in computers, and signs everywhere state "If there are no free seats, please give up seats to computer users in order starting from seat number 1", so the system is very easy to use for computer users.

    持ち込みパソコン優先席が大きく設けられており、「空席がない場合、座席番号の1番から順番にパソコン利用者にお譲りいただきます」と至る所に明記されていることからも、パソコン利用者にとって非常に使いやすい仕組みになっています。

    Wi-Fi of course, and the many seats with power, such as at the counter, are a welcome point for people who want to work for a long time.
