    I hate and absolutely can't stand uppity people that still believe the library is a sacred silent…read moresanctuary. Well you will find that at this library, the hustle and bustle of hundreds of people coming in and out all day long using the adult computers for the Internet service or that half a dozen or so youth computers for in the child section before computers there. As I agree with Rich the library can get a bit noisy especially if you knew the children's area. Yet this library offers a lot of extras that make it excellent for families. Yes they have free Wi-Fi, can normally pick up a good speed and connection from almost anywhere from the center of the library outward. Most importantly what I love about this library is that it understands its patrons. last month in October they held an amnesty program for anyone who owes late fees or fines for losing a book or video. The program allowed you to bring in food in exchange for forgiveness of the fees. I like a library that cares about giving everyone access to its resources instead of worrying about collecting fees.

    Is closed! I think this should be noted on their site! Hope it reopens soon!…read moreI like that it is in a central location and easy to find what I am looking for when it's open! Does anyone have any idea when it will be open for business?

    This place is kind of deceptively huge…read more I enjoyed the circus museum of the area! There's two buildings that contain the entire thing. I really liked the interactive areas of the upstairs portion. And seeing the train cars in person was really interesting! The art museum was partially being renovated during the visit but there was still a huge amount of very large art pieces available to see. I enjoyed the restaurant inside a lot too. Very good food but if you go during 12-1pm, it's best to have a reservation. It was a full house! The store was cute and I only wish they had a few more museum-specific souvenirs. Make sure to bring a hat and water if you'll be exploring the full area as it can be HOT outside exploring the garden areas.

    Came to check it out on free Monday. The admission does not include the circus museum…read more Walking along, the grounds is very peaceful. The art collection inside the museum was very great. This place reminded me of walking through Italy. Love the replica of David in the courtyard. Also, the pianos mixed in as a part of the collection was a great touch. Only downside was there will be a line since the museum is free on Mondays so come early.

    This is probably one of the nicest libraries ever. A must see - this is a great building located…read morejust near the heart of town. The front has some amazing wooden doors - step inside to a landscaped court yard, and an open air covered reading room with free wireless. If you need to work away from home, this is the place to do so. Look carfeully, the building and courtyard are so well done, you might mistake this library for one of the near by homes. The library sits on a street that looks out to the ocean. Another cool thing to check out is the DuPont shell collection which is quite extensive and is on display in the court yard. We stopped by during the annual book sale and picked up some great books for less than a $1 each - some of the books looked like they had never been opened. 5 Stars for being a cool building, a free activity, a great place to read and having free wifi.

    Any visit I make to Boca Grande includes a stop here. Librarians there are keen to display works by…read morelocal authors or material on famous visitors. I enjoyed the historical perspectives provided on The Bush Administration. (The former First family has vacationed in this beautiful retreat.). This visit, I paged through a book of rural Florida photos by Carlton Ward. The small library is more curated than libraries of larger size, but it's a real asset to this refined beach town.
