It's been a year since my last visit to the library, since I walked in I was received with a smile and when I asked for help she was very nice and showed me how to look for apps on the website which helped me very much select a few books, she explained to me the checkout policies and was just so nice and helpful I really enjoyed going and will become a regular as I am trying to get into the habit of reading the only thing which I know is out of the library control is the smell of a few visitors who are in the computer area. Other than that it was a great visit

I read books now! I used to frequently go to the library in Pittsburgh and really stopped reading over the last few years. After the Yelp event that I hosted at the downtown Library, I signed up for a library card. I checked out their website and was happy to see I could reserve books at the San Marco location. I was alerted when they were ready for pick up, and they give you ample time to pick them up too. I parked for free right in front of the library, and there was a security guard that greeted me at the door. I picked up my books off the "hold" shelf, and then it was a self check out! I didn't even speak to anyone! I just scanned my card, scanned the books, and left - honor system style. The self check out was so high tech and offered other suggestions based on the books I picked out. There were lots of kids at this location the 3 times I've visited. I didn't explore the library much, but am so happy about the services offered here. I've read 2.5 books so far for the first time in years! I'm a reader now! Thanks Jacksonville Public Library!

I am fortunate to visit this library 1- 2 times a week. The librarians are friendly and knowledgeable. They always take time to discuss Authors and Books. The guard is very cool too. I love this place.Mike Googe

Place was very informative. I received my library card quickly with no issues for free. I can check out up to 50 books at a time. They have a huge database of online books and Ebooks. They gave me a map of all the public libraries in town that I can go for free and check out books. I can go and print and copy papers for 10 cents a sheet. They even have computer classes and learning classes you can sign up for free.

This is small but great library. The staff always greets you when you come through the front door. They have a pretty good selection of books, movies and CDs. For the most part the library is very quiet, with an occasional loud noise. But overall its a pretty peaceful place to read and relax. A great location that is right next to a small park and playground where you can read outside. And it's also really close to San Marco square and various other restaurants you can walk to.

Women's bathrooms were really really dirty. Also the place smelled really bad. I tried moving around twice. I thought maybe it was someone I sat close to. I know it's public and free place to study so I'll give 4/5. I think the carpets need cleaned. On a positive note- it was quiet- staff was friendly and I got a lot of stuff done.

I returned a book swiftly and then asked the librarian at the desk for my library card number with an uncanny amount of attitude. The trasacrion was meet with disconcerting looks when she questioned me not remembering a 13 digit long number. This was not worth my time or the disrespect I received.

This location has a decent children's section with a decent amount of computers. Being so close to some schools they kids come in groves after school and sometimes it is hard to get a computer bc they take them all. The staff does a pretty good job of supervising the middle/high schoolers and keeping them in line and for the most part they don't ruin the experience. There have been a couple occations where the kids got a bit rowdy or inappropriate and the staff is quick to put them in their place. I do like that the neighborhood kids have somewhere safe to go but sometimes wish they werent ALWAYS there. The park right next door makes it an attractive after school spot. We haven't yet tried any of the programing but hope to soon. I'm not sire what the deal is sith the attached Community Center.
