Certainly not just a building with books, the Key Biscayne Branch Library is nestled within an acre of lush tropical gardens, including a pond that is home to ducks, turtles, and various fish. 

The Key Biscayne Branch Library opened to the public in January, 1985, and the building offers 6,000 square feet of books, tapes, videos, and computers, including a small auditorium for regular library events.

Feeding ducks that live in the library gardens pond
Children love to visit the library gardens to feed the ducks who live here and to catch a glimpse of the turtles and fish who nibble at the bread the children sprinkle on the pond.
It might take you quite some time to make it along the path from the library parking lot to the actual library building itself, especially if you have the children with you...

Key Biscayne Library tropical gardens The gardens surrounding the Key Biscayne Branch Library are filled with hundreds of native plants and offer a refuge from the rush of day-to-day life.

There is even a "cook's square" that is filled with spices and herbs for the taking by library visitors.  The library gardens are maintained by residents of Key Biscayne who volunteer their time and energies to keep the gardens a place of beauty and enjoyment for everyone.

Once inside, visitors are welcomed with air-conditioning, and the smiling faces of the Key Biscayne library staff.  Visit often enough, and they will even greet you by name. 

Besides the expected library materials, six computers throughout the library feature Internet access, word processing programs, and over 50 educational games for children.
