The storytime was so-so, but you can't complain since it was FREE and the kids seemed to enjoy it. The library looks brand new with several meeting rooms and a tall ceiling with lots of glass windows to let in plenty of natural light. They have a large collection of books and a dedicated children's area with books easily accessible in bins, blocks, table activities and board games.

It's 100% volunteer, so make sure you call ahead or head there early, just in case they're not fully staffed. The deals are worth it, though, and the money goes right into the library system, so it all stays local. You never know what you'll find, and its well organized, clean, and tidy. Highly recommend putting aside a half an hour and coming in

I checked out a DVD of a series recommended to me by a Yelp friend. They were only one of four libraries that had it. It was easy to find, and quickly checked out by a very friendly librarian. The library has a craft basket at the checkout desk. So help yourself to a craft while they last! They also have museum passes for Pinellas and Hillsborough counties. Unfortunately, the James Museum is no longer offered. That was one of my favorite museums to visit for free. Now I will pay for the privilege. This library has plenty of parking in their parking lot, on the street, and across the way. It's all for free. It also has accessible bathrooms, a Friends of the Library book area by the front doors, community rooms, and a children's section. Do yourself a favor, and stop by to see all that is offered here.

I tried to get a library card today. Well that was absolutely ridiculous. I was asking questions…read moresince it's been 10 years since I've had a card at this location. When I asked the woman behind the counter next thing I know there was three people telling me I had to pay $25 to get a library card. As I was asking the so-called manager lady questions, she was very discriminating towards me because I had a walker and instead answered my friend who she didn't even know I was friends with that was standing next to me as if I was invisible. Way to go for discrimination. Unbelievable. It was already late in the afternoon and they wasted about 20 minutes of my very valuable time. The place needs a revamp inside. The outside is beautiful as usual. The only one that was helpful and very sweet was a young man named Ray. Thank you Ray for being a decent good human. It's a shame that your co-workers and manager are not decent at all. If you have a walker or any type of assistance with a device DON'T GO THERE. The bathroom has the heaviest door and is not accessible. They do have a stall that is larger, but you have to struggle with the door to get in at all. I can't believe this used to be a great Library. Maybe the manager should take out a book herself about discriminating against people fighting for their life

It was also a pitch for estate planning and wills, but I'm happy with our attorney and our will. I took the useful brochure with me. Afterwards, I wandered down the wide hallway to the double glass doors to peruse the books for sale in the front of the library. Prices were reasonable. I also looked around at the plethora of books and other materials that patrons could check out. But I had to call this visit short. I had to hurry to Palm Harbor to lead a class (Tai Chi for Balance). I hope to return for a more in depth look at what this majestic library offers.

Let me preface this by stating that I grew up with libraries being a part of my life and they will always have a special place in my heart. This library, while not being very large, is well laid out and has an impressive amount of varied media on hand. From current video games (Xbox 1/PS4) to DVDs and graphic novels and a well appointed computer lab, this place has something for everyone. The upstairs has currated collections in separate spaces. A children's room, young adult and international section to hilight a few. The staff was very friendly and getting setup with a library card was effortless. The library hosts special events as well.

Once I showed up to my 8:30 am class for my professor to play a YouTube video of another professor teaching the subject. The dining hall food was often bland, overcooked or undercooked and gave us food poisoning on more than one occasion. Something I find unacceptable for how expensive the meal plans are. The dorms smelled damp and often had issues with mold. My first week of school I got a respiratory infection from being in the dorm. We also had issues with the heating turning on the n the winter time and despite maintenance telling us it was fixed it wasn't. I did however like the events that went on. Our spring and fall festivals were nice. Getting to go to Universal studios for $20 was the highlight of my year. We could watch movies on the lawn, get airbrushed shirts, have food trucks visit and more. It was also a pretty famous to look at. But it doesn't make up for the other stuff. I wish I had gone to a more cost effective school. I started before COVID and in recent years the school has gotten itself into financial hardships. We even had a change of Deans because of egregious spending. The tuition hikes haven't made campus life any better it just hurts my pockets.
