First time I'm finally after so many years at this library…read more I went because it was on my way and I needed to work about an hour on my computer. Is not as modern as other libraries but it has everything you need like Internet, all the same library system or you order books online or you can just sit there and read your book. They also have the computer station where you can work on their computer and even print. You can print up to 25 pages per day for free if you need to print more you just pay extra. The restroom and everything was clean and the people working here were all nice! I

It's right on the international mall which makes it a free parking, awesome service, and convenient. As soon as you enter the smile of the employees gives you so much peace and feel comfortable. I use the computer and then I print it like I normally do and they were super nice to help me get these things done. Remember to get your free library card online and with this the free library card you get to take home some books or read them online, access Internet, print up to 25 pages per day, and so much more.

The employees are very nice and helpful and have even sat with me to help word essays. They offer free language classes at the site as well as free music apps, audiobook apps, language apps, and discounts on much more I really love this place and has saved me so much money on buying a computer and printer and audiobook subscriptions.

As a library they are small but they have many other great options such as a park, kid playground…read morearea, and a pool along with an inside gym. But even though they are a small branch staff are always friendly. Parking is a bit difficult since the park has a lot of patrons and never seems to be enough parking available. And be warned DO NOT park in the residence area as your car will be towed. Saying from experience. But overall a nice little branch that's great especially if you have small kids.

Back in the mid-90s, I was an obese Shenandoah Middle School kid with more baby fat than…read moreself-esteem, stranded after school when I missed the bus or my grandfather couldn't scoop me up. And where did I end up? Not at home with a snack, not on the streets getting into trouble--nope. My babysitter was the Shenandoah Library. This place saved me. It was air-conditioned (a gift in Miami), quiet (unless I was breathing heavy down the book aisles), and mercifully free. I'd wander the stacks pretending to look studious but really hoping to stumble across a forbidden "naked lady book." Spoiler alert: no luck. When that mission failed, I'd lock myself in the bathroom for way too long, only to get the inevitable librarian knock: "Kid, are you still in there?" Yeah, I was. Don't judge me--at least I wasn't out buying Hot Cheetos. And yet, between the failed nudie hunts and the bathroom marathons, I actually discovered books. Real ones. Stories that made me laugh, wonder, and eventually fall in love with reading. Shenandoah Library didn't just keep me off the streets--it accidentally gave me a lifelong obsession with words. Not because it was perfect--libraries in the 90s smelled like dust and faint mildew--but because it tolerated me. It gave me refuge when I was awkward, overweight, and searching for something (besides naked ladies). It was patient, forgiving, and quietly life-changing. Shenandoah Library: where a chubby kid found air-conditioning, refuge, and a love of books--even if the librarians had to drag him out of the bathroom to do it.

This library is not the newest one of the bunch. It replaces the old library located on Eighth…read moreStreet and 67 Avenue, the old building now housing Allegro Music. The branch moved down a few blocks, not too far from the old one, to a new shopping plaza which caters to the technological needs of modern libraries. This new building may be slightly larger than the previous one, although it feels the same as the old one. The spacing and the lighting inside are far superior here than at the previous site. Even though the collection is small, you can easily navigate through the book shelves without lack of lighting. This building has glass panels to the north, giving the interior plenty of light and almost no heat. Available here you will find many computer stations and a printer. It is not a very big library, but it has all the basic amenities. There are also tables for groups, chairs for individual reading, and a kids corner, and also a clean restroom and a water fountain. The most precious find at this location is the DVD collection. If you are looking for movies, novelas or TV shows in Spanish, here you will find lots of it. It is a very large collection. Next to the DVDs are the books in Spanish, though they are bestsellers and celebrity books. This library has Wi-fi like all the other libraries. Because of the very limited parking space, it is best to use this library to pick up books only, or for a quick web surfing. The patrons are many and after all, availability is limited.

This is a great library. It's not as large as the others, but has everything you need. I section…read morewith tables to study, computers, printing station and WiFi. I usually request my books online and pick them up here. We've come for story time on Wednesday at 6:30 and my little one has a lot of fun. The librarian Pablo is usually the one who runs story time. He gives out coloring pages, crayons, markers and has even let my little one choose a book she'd like for him to read! The area for kids has a carpet and 2 bean bag chairs for the kids to relax and enjoy their books.

Quiet library hidden in the heart of Miami Springs. If you aren't familiar with Miami Springs you…read morewill certainly pass it. I'm familiar with Miami Springs and I passed it a few times when I initially started coming. The branch is super small. Smaller than some of the other branches. I usually only come here when a book I am looking for is shelved here; which is very rare. The location near my job usually does the trick for me. Today I had to come for other reasons and actually got the opportunity to just sit and look around. Each time I have come here, it is always clean. The staff is the staff; quiet and will assist you as needed. For the most part they just sit at the counter which is located right in front of the doors. To be a small library they do however have a great selection of books. The last time I came, I was very surprised at the selection of books they have. They also have a great selection of children's books and movies as well. My son and I usually come and check out DVDs for him; that I won't buy. He loves their Thomas the Train movies. I'd advise that you check the hours before coming. They aren't on the same schedule as some of the others. For instance, I know that they are closed on Friday's which is weird; to me. Other than that, I don't think you'd be disappointed depending on what you're looking for. You can always search the system ahead of time and see if they have what you are looking for.

One of the few libraries I love in Miami Dade. They have tables with outlets. It's not very big, it's small with a column section of tables around it which gives it more space, and a small couch you can go and read.
