Was visiting from out of town and brought our 11 month old to the library. They have a wonderful…read morechildren's section. The children's section of the library has its own family restrooms with changing table. Clean and very convenient for changing a baby. There is an entire section towards the back of the children's room that's purely a play area. The play area is filled with toys and great for little ones even under two years old. Our 11 month old spent an hour playing in the toy area and he had a blast. There's a busy board on the wall and all kinds of toys even appropriate for his age. I was blown away by the amount of toys. It's not the cleanest play area but definitely worth a visit if you have a little one. Of note, there seem to be a lot of homeless people in the area. There was a security guard at the library which was reassuring. Will definitely visit again if in the area.

I can't recommend anywhere more than this wonderful place.

The Jacksonville branch is small but quaint and is all you need to access the Jackson County-wide…read morecollection. Their selection is limited, including that of the whole county, but you can't beat the price! It's free as long as you return books on time, anyway. The only annoyance I've found is that you can't renew an item if someone is on the wait list for it, so you really have to be sure you finish with it within the original borrowing period. Failure to do so possibly results in being shuffled to the end of the queue, sometimes months. Libraries in cities I've always lived in allow you the maximum renewals before requiring a book be returned for the next borrower, but what can you expect for 'free?' The only other comment is you really have to mind the various branch hours - as has become customary nationwide with many library system cutbacks - the Jacksonville branch seems closed more often than it is open. Be sure to plan ahead, and utilize the online system to reserve items from other branch locations. It will make your library card more valuable.
