From April 19–25, the Miami-Dade Public Library System is celebrating the vital role that libraries – and library staff – play in strengthening our community and enriching lives. This year’s theme, Find Your Joy, encourages everyone to explore what brings them happiness at the Library.

Whether it’s finding a new favorite read, attending a library program or using digital resources on the go, the Library offers something for every interest and every stage of life. We invite you to visit your local branch or explore online to unlock a world of possibilities. Borrow books, eBooks, audiobooks, video games and DVDs, get hands-on experience with emerging digital media technologies, create films and podcasts, learn a new language (or two), access free tutoring, get moving with fitness classes and so much more.
