Lovely, full-service library. Books, videos, e-book availability for e-readers, computers, training classes and lots of activities for all ages, adults, teens, children. Classes are given regularly for computers, e-readers, and tablets. You must sign up ahead of time for these. While you are there, check the newsletters for the most current activities and events. You can also go to the their website and check the events calendar for events here and at all the other Lake County libraries.
If you are an adult (minimum age = 18 years) and need one on one help learning to read better, need help learning English as a second language, or need help with Pre-GED lessons the library system maintains a trained group of volunteer tutors that can help you. You must sign up at the library first, once a tutor is available someone will call you. In most cases you will meet with them privately at the library with your assigned tutor for your lessons. Some training such as Citizenship or English Practice may be in groups with a volunteer tutor conducting the group lessons.

Had a fun time looking around! Nice section on local history. Most of the employees were understanding. I'm looking forward to going again.

Leesburg Public Library opened in May 2007 and has a lot to offer the community. As you walk in, look up and you will see bells that play a lovely chime on the hour. Just inside the door on the left is the Beacon College Coffee shop. It's the perfect place for students from the college across the street to pop in and get a bite to eat or just some caffeine to wake them up before class begins. Most library's have a used bookstore and this library has a great one. The books are easy to browse and there is even a box of free books by the door. You can also buy a bus pass there, which is a terrific value to those who use public transportation. Inside the library, on the ground floor are the fiction books and DVD's. The children's section, Imagination Cove, is in the back next to the computers. There is a staircase up to the second floor where the nonfiction and reference section is found. There is also an elevator. At the base of the stairs is a touching memorial to a Leesburg High School graduate, Staff Sergeant Michael Andrew Bock, USMC, who fell to a sniper's bullet in Afghanistan on August 13, 2010. A bronze bust and framed memorial dedicated to his service are worth a look.
