Safety Harbor Public Library - Safety Harbor, Florida

i thought this was a good library. until they charged me for a book that was water damaged. i did not damage it and i know that because i don’t keep my books near water or any liquid. this was during the hurricane season and we had returned the book after the hurricane. i think they had water in the drop off bins from outside that caused the damage but they don’t want to admit that. when i asked them about it the lady was very rude about it and said it was my fault and there was no way it could’ve have been them. she told me it was $34.99 and i was going to pay with my card but they only accept cash. so i ended up bringing $40 in cash. BUT they ALSO have a processing FEE. that’s $6. that i wasn’t told about. for what for sitting on the computer and taking your time? you already get paid. this is what you get paid for!! i stood there for about 10 minutes while she took her time. it could’ve been done in 2. and all of their attitudes were horrendous. i am so pissed. never coming back again.

The most beautiful library I've ever seen in all my travels. Vibrant and colorful. Extremely friendly staff; especially Kelly, who went out of her way to help me and is incredibly genuine and sweet. Lots of accomodations. Right next to the park and marina. I'd rather come here to do my studies as opposed to anywhere else. 📚

Great small town feel to the library. Plenty of children's books and dvds to choose from. Staff was friendly and building was clean. Lots of different activities for kids throughout the year.

Wonderful children’s area. That’s about it. I made the mistake of parking somewhere I couldn’t because I saw other parents park there. When my husband came to meet us and we were leaving, employees were taking pictures of our tags. My car was in front of the signs in the grass. The last picture is cars they did not take pictures of that were parked how I was. I informed them I only parked there because there were others parking there and I didn’t see any “No Parking” signs. Rude employees at the front except a young blonde woman. Require pre registration for events or have someone out there to direct parking instead of trying to get a family towed for a simple mistake. This facility’s parking lot is not equipped to handle large events. Totally appalling the interracial family was targeted and none of the other families that were parked in front of me/where I was. Some of the older women who work there need to be sent to conflict resolution classes. Was rudely told “Why don’t you volunteer then?” when I advised they have someone out there when expecting large crowds. This was in front of my 20 month old.

Awesome library. The kids section includes a sensory room which is really cool because most places don't have that. It's library also has six shelves of deaf literacy. And is home to the deaf service center.

Great selection of Usborne books.
