The kids area inside is wonderfully decorated and our son will love the reading room once those activities are resumed. The librarian was helpful and kind and the library is spacious. Be sure to check the hours on the St. Pete Libraries website as they can be affected by SPC's calendar.

I'm Surprised no one has reviewed this place yet. Over the years I've come here a lot to study or…read moredo work when I'm in town. It's preferable to a crowded coffee shop except there is no coffee here :( but there is a Starbucks with a drive thru nearby. It's a nice little hybrid of a community lib downstairs and a college student space upstairs. Very nice chill study space with comfy chairs with plugs and a reference lib on duty upstairs. I really like the giant hanging baby exploring the abc's and what not as you walk up the atrium stairs.

It's a nice place to do work. As a self-employed person, I have always looked for cafes and…read morelibraries where I could bring my laptop and get some of my paperwork done. The space has lots of light, has an airy feel to it compared to most libraries. I find that gives me energy. And I'm a book nut, I read several every week, so I live the vibe in a public library. They also have resources to help people get the information they want. Public libraries ROCK!

I got my new library card in a couple of minutes after filling out the required form. I'm feeling more and more like a part of the Pinellas Point community. I really like it here! So nice to be able to access not just books but videos and computers and such. I can walk to this local library, which is great!

Although its book collection on site is somewhat limited, it is a branch of the much larger St. Petersburg City Library. One may borrow books and other materials from a dozen or more libraries in the Pinellas County system so there is a wide selection.

Disclaimer: my criticism is directed entirely towards the dining hall…read more It is incredibly rare that i have a decent experience while dining here. I have fallen victim to food poisoning multiple times, options are slim, and it is very dirty. i once witnessed a worker wiping counter tops off with a dirty rag and then proceeding to wipe the top of a "clean" plate off with the same rag. if you must eat here, don't think too much about where your food comes from. additionally, the menu is brief and repetitive. it is difficult to find a healthy option and if you do, it takes a bit of innovation with the low quality ingredients you are given. the food that is served is insanely greasy and flavors are minimal. with the new dining hall just having opened, i certainly got my hopes up. i was very much let down. if anything, it is worse. the setup is entirely unplanned and inconvenient and while it looks there are more options, do not let that fool you. they omitted the waffle bar (a fan favorite) and they tend to falsely advertise the cereal. they always run out of necessities and fail to replace them. food is either undercooked or incredibly dry. they scam you by forcing you to be a part of the meal plan if you live on campus housing (at least your first year). this must be stopped. food is inedible and you will be spending your money on food elsewhere. we must take a stand against this. who's with me?

My daughter is only a freshman and has already experienced so many issues. Here is a breakdown of…read morethe bigger ones: A roommate that was harassing her and threatening suicide (and even checked herself into a mental ward), and my daughter received no help from the faculty in handling the situation. Eventually the roommate moved out yet continued to harass her to the point of needing a no contact order. No faculty whatsoever has checked on her to make sure she is ok (or the roommate to my knowledge, who is still on campus and has gone through this again with another girl). The stress from this incident alone affected her grades and health. She was sick for a few weeks; she did a deep clean of her room and there was mold in the vents! Staff is not good about returning calls. Tuition is extremely high, yet for "family weekend" you still need to pay $75 per person to participate. You get some "freebies" (towel, sticker, pen), 1 hors d'oeuvre, 1 meal, boat ride if you're there early enough and weather cooperates and after doing their swim test, you can watch an already free athletic event or two, meet the faculty, a couple other minor things I'm forgetting. Keep in mind most families are already paying money to also travel to get there and a place to stay for the weekend. Most recently my daughter has been dealing with a lost package. The mailroom contacted her to let her know she had a package. She went to retrieve it, and they couldn't find it but said their system shows it's there. They said to give it a week because they had just gotten back from break and it was busy. She went back, same story, they show they have it but can't find it. She then receives an email stating they had it and it was in their locker that they give you a code to open. She went, opened it, it was empty. Again, they said it's there and they'll find it. I finally contacted student affairs, and they said they would look into it and get back to me. I didn't hear back so 2 weeks later I'm calling again and the mailroom person that they were supposedly contacting had no knowledge of the situation. I explained it, he gave excuses that they probably didn't receive the package because they don't show her receiving anything during that time. So... I read him the emails from them saying they had it and forwarded him the emails, he said it was a new system, and it was glitching. So... I send him the UPS tracking showing it was delivered to the school. We shall see what I hear back now. Lastly, lots of parties on campus, apparently nudity and drinking is ok. Topless on the beach as well. All good, if you are aware that's what you're getting into. My daughter was 17 until just a month ago, making her a minor. They do have security at the parties, I suppose for safety. (Check Eckerd's Almost Friday Instagram.) My daughter so wants to be at that school and keeps muddling through the crap because she likes the campus, the location, and she has made some really great friends. This is where she wanted to be. But it's getting harder to reconcile this decision to stay because for the money, the size of school, and all of the claims they tout when recruiting, you expect better. You deserve better.

Parking is very limited/street parking. Wish I would have known all of this sooner, as it would have saved me a lot of time. It's very confusing where to park to go to the beach in SPB so I posted the handy little St Pete Beach Public Beach parking map & info. Your welcome :) And if you already got a ticket, you don't have to go to City Hall to pay it, you can pay your parking tickets online. You can also pay your pinellas county utilities & taxes online! Yay! :)) Sir Hubbers & I just bought real estate here, our 3rd Home/winter residence. When we got our utilities all set up they made a clerical mistake somehow, wrote down the wrong email address then, cut the power off! They quickly fixed the issue, came to our home & turned the power back on. The garbage service is a serious mess. A complete nightmare. It's been months since the Hurricane & garbage is still everywhere. So much rubbish, the entire contents of peoples homes still on the streets. The damage was catastrophic. The city just can not handle the waste disposal. Have to build on stilts now. The new ordnance's for re-building in the flood zones are all listed online. You can read all this info online at stpetebeach.org The waste management is a total fail. Somehow, the waste management has to improve. It has to be upgraded ASAP. Will return to update.
