Seven Sarasota County libraries will be closed this Friday while employees participate in staff development training and welcome colleagues from throughout Florida who are traveling to Sarasota to engage in a variety of learning opportunities. Two libraries will remain open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. that day: including the Jacaranda Public Library on Woodmere Park Boulevard in Venice. Outdoor book return service will be available at all nine county libraries, and the county’s library website, scgov.net/library, is always available 24 hours a day.
