Absolutely beautiful library. This is a massive private university library located on campus at…read moreNova Southwestern University in Davie. 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.

There was not enough parking spots.

Instead of paying for Netflix, standing in front of a Redbox…read moremachine, going to the nearest Barnes & Nobles, or trying to figure out who has the best prices for CD's; I just go to the Hollywood library and borrow everything from books, ebooks, audio books, music, and movies...for FREE! The only thing you would have to worry about is the $1.00 fine they charge each day for each item that is overdue. I like the fact with having a library account, I can go on the website and check out any new book, CD, and DVD release. If the Hollywood branch does not have the item I want, I can put the item on hold and if there's a copy of that item available at any other Broward library, it will be sent to the library of my choice for pickup. There is no limit on the amount of books or CD's to borrow (2-3 weeks), but if you want to borrow DVD's, the limit is 10 (1 week). Besides borrowing books, CD's, and DVD's, the library also provides bus passes, faxes, copying and printing (15 cents each). They have four sections of computers for adults, teens, and young children. You have to first reserve a computer, which gives you a 60 minute session. You can only reserve a computer twice, which sucks cause I normally spend more than two hours on the internet. If you're smart, you'll walk in with your laptop and use the library's free Wi-Fi. There are also four 15 minute computers that needs no reservation for people who want to go on the internet for minor, quick things like check their email, a quick tweet, print, or download, or just check their facebook page. The noise level in the facility is usually quiet until after 2pm. That's when the school children arrives and then it becomes noisy. The staff are very friendly and are willing to answer any questions you have. It's like my little sanctuary away from home.

Hi All, this place is very nice except for some people who gets too loud at times! However, I do…read morefeel some people don't get the concept of being pin drop silent at a library. I was on a look out for a quiet place where I could work with better internet connectivity. Unfortunately this is second such spot where it was difficult to find an internet connection expect for a hard two bar connection. Later, I realised that it had to do with my laptop which was quite old and had just 2.5 ghz of wifi connectivity. Whereas, nowadays it's all about 5 ghz. So, my bad! I would definitely recommend this place and do not go for the sign boards at the parking as anyone wishing to spend time at this library has the privilege to park your vehicle for free of cost. This library is well arranged as all the furniture's are aesthetically placed based on user requirements. They do have small kiosks for working or studying in groups too. The library management system in this country is thumbs up!

The staff, especially the lady at the front desk, is always extremely rude. When I asked about…read moremuseum passes, she was dismissive like I was inconveniencing her. When I had follow up questions, she responded condescendingly, as if I should already know. The other lady I interacted with also at the front desk I guess wasn't as rude but just seemed bothered with my son. He was next to me just looking around and sort of walking, not making any noise or even speaking she quickly told him to stay still because this wasn't a place to walk? I've also been for the children's programs they have two, one on Mondays for smaller children up until three years old and then they have one on Wednesdays for children three till five I believe. The one on Wednesday was terrible they put the children in a tiny room with barely any space and all they do is give them a piece of paper to color and that's pretty much it. The gentleman who was in charge was very kind though, complete opposite from the staff upfront. I'll never understand why people who hate customer service decide to work at front desks...

The Old Florida Bookshop is definitely high on the whimsical! It's such an unexpected little find,…read moretucked away in a very unassuming, older shopping center where you would never expect to find a place like this. Walking inside feels like discovering a hidden little world of books. I will say, I expected it to be much bigger based on photos I had seen. There's definitely more to see upwards than around, with books stacked and shelved high throughout the space. It's pretty tight inside, so I can imagine it getting a little crowded when there are a lot of people. And then there's the big fluffy resident cat, who pretty much seems to own the place and just adds another layer of charm to the whole experience. Honestly, what more could you want from a whimsical little bookshop? Definitely worth making a little trip to check out. It's quirky, charming, unexpected, and feels like a little hidden treasure.

The only caveat is that there is some dusty areas so take your allergy meds before coming. They have LOTS of books, some new, some used, some rare, some common. They also have vintage wall art. However, this book shop is NOT the shop to grab a book and read in the corner, nor the kind of shop to sit and do work. It is VERY cramped, especially on busy days. I've also noticed some books are pretty steep in price. Come here for the bookish vibes and the Instagram-worthy floor-to-ceiling shelves of books! Just don't expect it to be cozy or functional as a library or B&N.

This was my first time at the Dania Beach Paul DeMaio Library. I was actually referred here because…read moreI needed to scan a document and their scanner was in good working condition. When you come to this library, you have to park in the parking garage reserved for library patrons and city hall officials. Once I walked in I could see the whole layout of the library, so it's small and compact just like Carver Ranches Library, but this location was much more comfortable. I also saw a familiar face at the information/check-out desk that used to work at the Hallandale Beach Branch Library. There are adequate seating throughout the library where you can relax and charge your electronic device. There's a large selection of books of various genres, audio books, CDs, magazines, newspapers, DVDs, and reserved computers. The children's area is in the back of the library with a few reserved computers. I didn't stay long, but I assume the staff are helpful and nice. I did notice that they have some interesting book selections so I will definitely come back on my off day and check them out.

The librarians here are very nice and helpful. I snagged two books from the small book sale area in the corner upon entry. Cost is $2 for hardcovers and $1 for paperbacks. Please keep in mind they only accept cash.

I live in Kendall and was looking for a book that the system indicated was available only at this location. To confirm--and avoid making the trip for nothing--we called ahead and were assisted by Paul. With great patience and kindness, he informed us that the book was currently on hold, but offered to check if he could locate another copy. The call got disconnected, but Paul called us right back to let us know that the book was on a waiting list. Paul was very helpful and suggested that I download the online version instead.

The people that work here are always friendly and very knowledgeable when it comes to the new books, old books and where to find virtually any of the books on the racks! This library is always so clean and they always have a nice amount of copies of new releases so I don't need to be put on a waitlist to check the book out. I love that the library is two floors and the second floor is always so nice and quiet. The bathrooms here on both floors are always very clean as well and the tables are nicely spaced out in the library so I don't feel like I am ever hovering over other patrons while I am here! They have a friends of the library where you can buy second hand books and the deals they have on them are wonderful. I usually end up walking out with a stack of books way too high, for less than ten dollars. The best part is the money goes directly towards the library and helping run events that are open to the general public!
