This location also has the biggest Friends of the Library books for sale that I've ever seen. I only found a few books, but I am still thoroughly impressed with how many books they offer for sale here. They still have tons more in the back that they need to put out gradually. On the second floor, you'll find many kids studying or using the computer. Plenty of parking outside. The high ceiling structure is very nice here as well. There's also a little sitting area with vending machines you can sit and chill at. In the women's bathroom, there is a sign that says if you need feminine products, go talk to the front desk inside the library. Cool that the offer this for the girls and women.

Although it's a private library, it is available to the public. My friend told me about this library as her middle school son volunteered here during the summer. She said it was really nice during the summer when it was quiet and they had the library to themselves. I went during the weekday last week. In the midst of back to school college students everywhere! Lol. They have security by the main entrance and college students are asked to scan their university IDs. All other guests will be let in by the guard. You must have a Broward County Libraries card to check out books at this location. The nice thing is, you can return the books to any Broward County Library and they will ship the book directly to Alvin Sherman Library. So convenient. When you walk into the library, the circulation desk is on the left, there is a computer working lab area on the right, and if you go straight, you'll find the children's book location, there are new books located on the spinning racks next to the stairs, and there is also a hidden bestseller books room located next to the circulation desk and entrance/exit. I believe there are four floors in this library. Tons and tons of tables and rooms for study areas for the college students. My favorite part about this museum is the Chihuly display on the second floor, they fancy! Another fascinating thing about this library, are the moving bookshelves! You heard me right. They have digital buttons where you can move the actual bookshelves. It's such a smart way to save space. Brilliant. Unfortunately, they don't have any Friends of the Library books for sale at this location. But the librarian did mention they have two big annual book sales per year. You can sign up for newsletter on their website. There are also two book returns at the roundabout outside of the library in case you don't want to park and get out of your car. There is a parking garage but you have to pay for parking using the park by mobile app. I believe it was $1.61 per hour. Students park for free with their NSU parking stickers.

So glad I got to check out this library. It really is a hidden gem especially for kids. I signed my…read moredaughter up for a story time here on Tuesday morning. This was a former museum (young at art) for kids and it then became a public library. It's cozy and quaint. A pretty big selection/area for kids and the adult selection is smaller. They have outdoor seating for studying or working and 2 private rooms available to use for a 2 hr span. What really won me over were the librarians. They are so helpful and attentive. April & Amanda were the best! I really hope the county puts more attention and effort to expanding this library because the space has so much potential. This library will definitely be one I frequent often.

This location is also a vaccination place for the Department of Health.

Parking was spacious and staff were friendly. The library was large and organized. There are many events, just check out the website for details. There are study rooms, youth service program room, and meeting room. There are large collections of foreign print materials, CDs, and film. There plenty of reading materials; I love their paperless books via the Libby app. We specifically went there for the children's section which is on the smaller side. There was a small Lego set and some chairs. They offer many baby and toddler programs. Overall, a great library with many resources for people from all walks of life.

Security not only gives you a menacing look when you walk in, they also have to walk by the computers every now and then and look at your screen I mean come on! Not only is that an invasion of privacy, what could you possibly be looking for? I thought libraries could control what people could search for and block certain content?. Seriously, no other library I've been to has ever done that. I was very upset about this. Not enough chairs to sit in to study. WiFi connection is great though, I'll give them that. Personally, I'll stick to North Campus library instead. I'd suggest you make an extra trip to a better library with more books, more computers, and no security guards all up in ya business!

I stopped by the Tamarac branch library to pick up a dvd I had placed on hold. The dvd could have…read morebeen sent to a library branch closest to me, but I didn't mind the drive. It was a very large space with many organized shelves displaying a vast genre of books, dvds, cds, and audio books. There were plenty of computers, seats, and table seating throughout, which gave it a functional feel. If you want more privacy, you can request a quiet room. After picking up the dvd from the hold section, I walked around and chose a few more movies to watch. I wish I could borrow some cds, but my vehicle is not equipped with a cd player. Oh how I miss those good old days. Venturing to other Broward County libraries are interesting. Despite the world's shift toward digitalization, it is appreciated that the libraries are still offering their resources to the community.

I'm not crazy and my memory serves me right! Not only have I reviewed my neighborhood library, but…read moreI have posted wonderful photos too. This is the closest library to home and we have come here for nearly two decades. They have made great strides at keeping it clean inside and out. The books (including a Spanish language collection), reading materials and DVD selection is well organized. In addition to the 100-seat room for meetings, they have a computer room for adults with space for a couple dozen people. Years ago, I spent many hours there and it was quiet enough that you could flow in your thoughts to write. Moreover, they've added computers so more children can work on iReady and play educational games. There isn't a time I've walked in here that there aren't a number of tutors helping children and adults alike. The staff is helpful and there is a guard who assists them, which is an added bonus in the afternoons when the students from the nearby Middle/High School start coming in. In addition to the parking spaces in the front (facing Commercial Blvd.), there is parking in the side and rear of the lake that divides the library from the Tamarac Community Center. Following are their hours of operation: Monday: 10:00 AM - 8:00 PM Tuesday: 10:00 AM - 8:00 PM Wednesday: 10:00 AM - 8:00 PM Thursday: 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM Friday: 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM Saturday: 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM Sunday: CLOSED

Dedicated in 2000, it was the first library built with funds from the $139 million library bond issue approved by Broward County voters in 1999. This 78,000-square-foot, two-story library is a joint-use facility of the Broward County Library System and Pembroke Pines. It's open to the public while also serving as the school library for charter high school students. Broward College students have access to a computer lab on the first floor. The library's collection includes over 100,000 lending items for children and adults in multiple languages, including books and multimedia. Amenities include a teen activity room, children's storytime room, 300-seat auditorium, gift shop, classrooms, quiet study rooms, conference rooms, tutoring rooms, and a computer lab. Programs for all ages are offered regularly--details are available at the front desk or on the library's website. On my visit, there was a holiday model train exhibit. More recently they had a St. Patrick's Day photo op on the second floor and an Easter Peeps diorama contest. Broward County truly excels at libraries, and Southwest Regional is no exception. The space is large, clean, modern, and welcoming. The lobby floor features a terrazzo design that gives the illusion of the Everglades, while the ceiling shows the sky from an alligator's underwater perspective--a really fun touch. Whether you're studying, working remotely, or just browsing, there's plenty of room to spread out. Quiet areas are genuinely quiet, and community spaces feel relaxed and inviting. If you haven't visited a library in a while, Southwest Regional might surprise you with how much it can enrich your day.

The layout of each corner of the library really caters to each group, with the entire upstairs being nice and quiet for adults. All the staff are really friendly and helpful. We had a ball at the ArtLit festival today - West African drums & dancing, green screen photo shoot, flower painting, giant alligator characters, Everglades improv show, food trucks, small business tents. All the volunteers were so friendly, found out about so many community, and enjoyed all the activities and booths. Can't wait for next year when baby is older and can enjoy even more. The miniature railroad display put on a couple weeks ago, was so impressive. Highly recommend keeping a pulse on all their events.
