Art in the Library

As a community center, we believe art—like information—should be accessible to everyone. Our building is filled with original artworks for all to enjoy, so please take a moment to view our gallery and then stop by to see your favorite pieces in person.

Green InitiativesLEED Gold Symbol

We’re a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold certified building. To meet this certification, our building includes special features such as a green roof, which is long lasting, insulates the building more efficiently than a standard roof and helps prevent stormwater runoff. Other environmentally friendly features of the building include efficient water, lighting and heating and cooling systems.

We encourage eco-friendly transportation by providing premiere parking spaces to low emission or fuel efficient vehicle. We also offer a bicycle rack at the front entrance and bike lock rentals at our Information Desk if you’ve forgotten yours. Pace Bus stops are conveniently located In front of our building and just across the street.

To help our visitors stay green, we offer an in-house recycling program. Each floor of the library contains bins for recycling paper, plastic and cans. And we’ve almost completely eliminated the use of plastic bags by providing patrons reusable cloth bags that are available for checkout just like a book or other library materials. Cloth bags can be returned to a service desk or one of our free standing book drops.

Micro Pantry

Fountaindale is now home to a Micro Pantry, filled with non-perishable food items, toiletries and more to help our neighbors in need. The Micro Pantry is located to the right of our main entrance.

Micro Pantries run on a “Take what you need. Leave what you can,” policy and are designed to bring communities together to help those in need. Everyone in our community is invited to leave or take non-perishable food items, toiletries and diapers.

Please note, while we make every effort to make sure food is fresh, please be cautious and check for expiration dates and spoilage. The library is not liable for any harm caused as a result of expired items, food allergies or other concerns.

Our Micro Pantry was generously designed and funded by father and daughter, Scott Silmon and Ashley Silmon-Rodriguez. We welcomed our new pantry on Sunday, April 7, 2019.

Local History Room

Our Local History Room offers a non-circulating collection of genealogical and area-specific books, maps, microfilm and much more. The space has two database research computers, a digital microfilm machine, digital book scanner and a low vision reading machine. Genealogical help and research sessions are held in the room throughout the year.

Brooks Cafe

Please note: No food or drink are allowed inside the library. Our water fountains are turned off, and Brooks Cafe is not open at this time.

Brooks Cafe has a lot more than meets the eye. They offer everything from coffee and muffins to deli sandwiches, hot snacks, smoothies, lattes and coffee chillers. Stop by and check out the menu. If you’re having a meeting or event at the library, let Brooks know. They offer catering options.

Brooks Cafe Hours:

Monday–Thursday: 9 a.m.–8 p.m.
Friday–Saturday: 9 a.m.–5 p.m.
Sunday: Noon–5 p.m.

Brooks Cafe is not owned or operated by Fountaindale Public Library.
