This is a great library. My closest library was at Mid-County Library at Forrest Nelson in Port…read moreCharlotte, Fl.. But that library got demolished in hurricane Ian in 2022. So sad. I hear rumors they may rebuild. Hope so. Anyhow, this library on Aaron St. is great and they have been busy trying to fill in for the the closed library. And I confess I love the FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY. I donate and buy many books from the used book stores by the libraries. I just read (from their used book store) the play A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE. I confess I never read it before and it was a fun fast read. Then I found the play on television and watched it. Loved them both.

The library is definitely worth a visit if you are vacationing on Sanibel. Not only is it a…read morestunning building with tons of space to sit and relax with interesting things to look at and beautiful views, but you can get tons of entertainment for your vacation! It costs $10 for a non-resident to check out items, which lasts for the year. You cannot only get books and movies, but you can get kits to cook different items with cookbooks and pans, tons of games to play with your family when the sun has gone down at night, and even passes to local attractions, like the Bailey Matthews Shell Museum, and the Edison Winter Estate! Definitely a value beyond the $10. You might think this is a small town so the library will not have a lot of titles, but I was really pleasantly surprised at how many copies they had in stock of recent best sellers, popular movies, etc. We also took our baby to the baby and toddler story time on Tuesday morning, which was a great event that we all really enjoyed! The staff putting it on were welcoming and everyone had a lot of fun.

Everything from the layout to the very friendly and informed staff is great. I love the work tables/workstations for setting up my computer and working on my graphic arts business. The ambiance, layout, lighting, and traffic makes for a great balance between being able to concentrate and yet have the feeling of being surrounded by a nice buzz of quiet activity. The hours are good, though I miss the good old days when libraries were open late on Friday evenings, and some even open on Sunday afternoons.

If you live in the area or visit, this could be a nice resource for books, movies, nice activities. Check their site for hours! Closed on Sundays!

There's lots of seating and even some separate rooms to read or do work in. There is a third floor with a coffee shop and book store that both weren't open when I visited. The library itself is beautiful! Murals, art, shells, and history of Fort Myers is all over the library. This is definitely the better library in SWFL, certainly worth taking a drive out for.

They have plenty of computers for everyone to use and I love that you can reserve a study room, I usually take calls from these room. The internet is great and I've never had issues. There's a great student section and overall it's just mapped out really well. The only reason why it's 4 star for me is the fact that it's connected to the middle school and so after school it gets packed with kids. These kids can get wild and while the staff does a great job of managing them, it can still get disrupted. Overall it's a must visit

The front has some amazing wooden doors - step inside to a landscaped court yard, and an open air covered reading room with free wireless. If you need to work away from home, this is the place to do so. Look carfeully, the building and courtyard are so well done, you might mistake this library for one of the near by homes. The library sits on a street that looks out to the ocean. Another cool thing to check out is the DuPont shell collection which is quite extensive and is on display in the court yard. We stopped by during the annual book sale and picked up some great books for less than a $1 each - some of the books looked like they had never been opened. 5 Stars for being a cool building, a free activity, a great place to read and having free wifi.
