    The newest version of our county library that opened January 20, 1991 and is still going strong. It…read moremay not be as modern as a library would be if it was built today, but it has done a good job of adapting to the technological advances that libraries have seen in the 27 years since it opened. It certainly has come a long way from the first public library that I remember, which opened in 1956 in the basement of The Columns when that building was located at Park and Adams (where the Doubletree Hotel is now located). Now The Columns sits on a corner of the property where this library was built and the library sits on the former site of an earlier version of Leon High School. They have a good selection of all the usual library offerings of books, periodicals, CDs, DVD's and even digital downloads of current books. I even saw a poster recently at our branch library that indicated you can now download graphic novels/comics. Our Tallahassee Genealogical Society maintains a genealogy research section at this library as well. I personally enjoy being able to search the library catalog online so I can place a hold on a book I want to check out and have it delivered to my branch library or being able to renew checkouts when I take more than the 3 weeks checkout period to finish a book.

    I am an older student working on a Master's degree at FSU. I took a tour of Strozier during…read moreorientation last year and remember being quite overwhelmed with the size of the library and the amount of services offered. I went in the other day to simply print one page from a document in an email. I didn't know where to start so I went to the info desk right as you walk in. There were three super eager, knowledgeable students there ready to help me. They told me I would need to put at least a dollar on a card to print. I told them I had no cash on me, but I had my debit card. They told me "no worries" and that it was .10 per page to print and handed me a card with .90 on it. Then the girl gave me verbal instructions about how to log in and print from their computers. She also told me to come back if I got stuck or had any other questions. I was able print my page without any difficulty because of their help! I also love that you can grab a Starbucks while you're in the library. So cool! I will explore other services offered here and write another review in the near future. Great experience!

    Whenever I'm swamped with work, sitting on the 2nd or 3rd floor of Strozier gets the job done! Ever…read moresince freshman year, I've been coming here in my most stressful times whether it's cramming before an 8am test or rushing to submit an assignment due at midnight. I love using the whiteboards to organize my work plan for the day, and getting a Monster from the vending machine never hurts. Every time I'm on campus for the day, I use the microwave on the 1st floor to heat up my lunch. Be sure to bring headphones if you plan on working on the 1st or 2nd floor because it can get noisy, and if you're planning on coming during exam cram time good luck finding a seat. Strozier is one of my favorite parts of FSU!

    This library has such potential because it's massive. I get it, it's a public place but it smells…read morelike straight up urine and is a meeting ground for the homeless in the lobby. The staff are super sweet but I wish the cleanliness of the place was well kept. I just felt gross in there the entire time. Book selection is okay. Everything kinda seemed all over the place but it is what it is.

    It is a fairly good library located in the heart of the downtown area. I've been coming to this…read morelibrary for many years and it has gone through some major renovations. Now it looks better than ever. Most of the time I come here whenever I have to accomplish a research paper or project for school, but I do visit to read and check out books on occasion.Upon scrolling through some of my photographs I know that I don't look like the bookworm type of person based on my hideous black ugly-looking face, but I do enjoy reading and learning about things. I especially enjoy reading mind-stimulating books, encyclopedias, and historical books about the past. You can never have too much knowledge. The library is quiet most of the time but sometimes women will bring their young children with them and it can really disturb my studying. I wish that some of the mothers would take better control of their kids. Damn bad ass kids keeping up all that noise and shit. If they were my kids I'd put a good old fashioned leather belt to their behinds. Anyway, as far as parking is concerned, the library does have a small but cramped parking lot. There is also free street parking for up to two hours. After two hours it is recommended that you get a pass from the circulation desk to avoid getting ticketed. However, the parking rule is rarely enforced so you may get away with it on most days.
