St. Johns County Public Library Ponte Vedra Beach Branch

I absolutely love this library, they have everything. The staff really makes this library special. They all know us by name and can always be seen with a smile on their faces. I don't know how they do it but they seem to have every motion picture film available on DVD and often Blu-Ray as well. In this regard this library is better than any other I have seen. The children's books and programs are also top notch. Our son grew up on the book readings and it was always one of the things he looked forward to all week. There are plenty of internet stations. The restrooms are clean. All in all we love this place and highly recommend it.

This one star is for just the baby story time class on Thursday. I used to bring my baby few months ago and it was fun with different instructor. It was more interacting and playful. The instructor would read with soft voice and excitement, bring balls and let the babies kick, play songs and sing while babies would grab their shaker eggs, also she would bring out big drum for babies to tap them. Last week when I went to the library after not going few months ago, there was a new instructor. Another elderly lady was there and she read 1 book only that last 1 minute ( because as you know baby books are short and more graphics ). The elderly lady left and the other instructor stayed sitting down on her mat, she read 1 book then she sing one song and then she just left the shakers eggs in the middle for everyone to grab one. Then I saw the time and there was 15 minutes left and she just let everyone to talk. She didn’t bring out wood stick and sing, she didn’t bring out short color vail to play with it, Nothing that babies would play with it instead just sitting there. Sorry but I left. I missed the previous lady with red hair. Forgot her name. But she was there before this summer starts. Other than the library customer service and the section books for kids and computers for learning it’s great and wonderful.

Love the toddler classes. And the kids area is set up so nice. The kids have such a good time here. Its a good place to play quietly and enjoy a different kind of activity rather then just the park. Lots of books to choose from. Love it. Update 6/6/17 Cant ever get enough of the library..can have lunch outside, walk around the beautiful boardwalk and see all the turtles in the lake, have a blast at the toddler movement class..my teenager has his own spot too, just to chill... just the neatest place to bond with your children

I love this branch because it is so spread out and comfortable. Cubicles with outlets are a very nice touch. Everything is so easy to find and the employees are ready to help if you have any trouble. Very friendly place. Take a jacket!!! They keep it on the chilly side so you don't doze off.
