Had the worst experience with an old woman employee (this is not derogatory but descriptive).She was condescendingly to the most black patrons and seemed very annoyed in carrying out her duties.I don’t know her name but she was the oldest and wore a black mask.The young employees were patient and kind.

It was really nice, nicer and bigger than my local library. The gentleman at the front desk was very helpful.

My boys were able to sign up for a library card, while I printed off some much needed paperwork.
From Lakeland Public Library - Larry R. Jackson Branch
The Larry R. Jackson Branch Library opened in 1995, replacing a small reading room in the City owned Coleman-Bush building. This provided much needed library services for the residents of North Lakeland.
Originally known as the Lakeland Branch Library, it was renamed the Larry R. Jackson Branch library in 1998 in honor of a local lawyer and civil rights activist who had worked tirelessly for years to bring a branch library to North Lakeland.
