LAKEWOOD RANCH LIBRARY IS NOW OPEN!

What an exciting opening for our new library/community center Friday, Jan. 12 and Saturday Jan. 13!  The Friends provided tours and so many wonderful community groups shared their talents. This is the start of a new chapter.  Please come in and see all the library has to offer.




There are seven Manatee Libraries funded in part by Manatee County. The library county budgets do not include funds for all programs, equipment, services and special collections.  Each library has a Friends organization that provides support for advocacy and fundraising. The Friends of the LWR Library fundraising efforts include the Book Nook, special events, donations, memberships and grants. These funds are critical to enhance what is already provided to meet the needs of  our community.

Library Events

Our dedicated librarians provide programs and classes for all ages. Check out what's available on the LWR library event calendar to find all the activities for you and your family.
