Absolutely amazing all around. The ability to come here and rent out books is such a blessing. They have a beautuful facility that brings many young as well as older people to get together and embrace in the art of reading.
The facility is always clean and the customer service always exceptional. I love this library.

The library has a wonderful selection, and the additional programming is great! I know the library does not run it, but we attended a seminar about estate planning. It was very informative and very, very helpful! I hope they offer this class again so I can bring my family to attend.

Sarasota has a wonderful library system and this location is no exception. Most interests are accounted for as are the different types of media. There are lots of comfortable places to sit and read. My daughter often attends free classes and workshops.

I physically cannot give this library below a 5 star, here's why:
-I was a teen library council member, loved the collaboration
-the aesthetic with the winding staircase and places to read is amazing
-very serene and secure feeling in the library with homey colors
-wide assortment of books, if not found it can be found online in a flash
-love their programs
Hands down one of the best libraries I've ever been to :)

Beautiful newer building on a nice piece of land. Plenty of parking with two lots one on each side. Lots of movies and books with a very helpful staff. No funky smell like at Fruitville Library. 5 star experience every time. Thank you!

I liked this library, it has a nice selection of books. The big problem I have with this library is that they took out all the tables downstairs. Where am I going to study? There is only 3 tables upstairs that are always occupied. And it’s hard to reserve a room cause it’s always taken. I would greatly appreciate if you guys would put the tables back so we have somewhere to study. Now I have to travel to the Fruitville library, which is way further from my house.

The staff here is amazing,tentative, and very helpful. They helped us out with getting so fit volunteering, computer use, and reffing the kids where to find books for their age groups. Thank you.

The best community library. Spacious and bright, with friendly staff, it is more generous and spacious than the libraries in Los Angeles and Orlando windermere. Complete facilities, complete equipment, novel and unique

A great place to relax and read at your leisure (or study for school). Staff is always helpful in finding books if you ask. New book section is interesting.

Beautiful building inside and out. Plenty of parking and friendly staff. There is a small bookstore as soon as you enter on your left.
