Miami-Dade Public Library System – International Mall Branch

Can you imagine a city, or maybe even a small town without a public library? How about this… Have you ever strolled the aisles of a public library and glanced at all the books it has to offer? Maybe it would cause a momentary lapse of depression as it may in fact bring you to terms that in fact you could have received a worthy education from these late charges on your library card instead of thousands of dollars from a college/​university.
Sure there are older books with somewhat antiquated opinions, but how advanced do you think many of these topics have gone from then and now? Pick up a library card. Pick out 3 (three) books that will lead you to a better understanding of the world around you. And if not, I guess they also offer DVD rentals of the Friends TV series.
Seriously though, so what if you’re out of school. Are you done learning?

Employees are nice and the library is clean and organized but it is «LOUD». Too many latin people who does not know how to behave in a library. It sounds like a playground more than a Library. Children running and yelling all over the place. Loud tutors that think they are in their school where they need to explain to the whole room.

Check the hours before going — the library system is being underfunded and many libraries are being slated to be closed. Hours for regionals may be reduced down to three days a week. Check
to see if they can survived this…

Finally a real library in this area because you cannot call that closet off of 58^th street a ‘library’.
This library has super helpful staff, its pretty complete, and of course as with any library you can find and order on the computer system. The library is always clean, it reminds me of the libraries up North.
So far parking has been great at any time, I hope it stays that way.

Shop and then get free books and movies!
My favorite library is always the last one I’ve visited. This International Mall branch of the Miami Dade public library system is so convenient to shopping (located right outside the mall) and everything is brand-​spanking new – it’s like going into a bookstore and taking home free books and movies! An exhilirating notion!
Since International Mall no longer has a bookstore of any kind, this can be an attractive alternative.
The skylights in this library provide excellent reading light; the selection of reading material and films is quite good.
They have self-​service check-​out machines so there’s no standing in line even at busy times.
The Miami-​Dade public library system just received the 2008 National Medal for Museum and Library Service, an honor given to only five institutions a year. They just opened two new branches in Virrick Park and Pinecrest.
So take advantage of one of the perks of living in a large urban area and check out your public library!
