Tarpon Springs Public Library, 138 E Lemon Street, Tarpon Springs, Florida, USA / Built: 1996 / Floors: 1 / Exterior Wall: Concrete Block/Stucco / Interior Finish: Dry Wall / Foundation: Continuous Footing / Roof Frame: Gable Or Hip

The Tarpon Springs Public Library’s current building on Lemon Street was constructed in 1996 and opened to the public in January 1997. Since that time, the population of Tarpon Springs has grown from about 20,000 to just over 25,000. In addition, the way in which patrons utilize the library has changed over the years with increased demand for digital content, new technology, interactive spaces, and special collections.

As we approach the Library’s 25th anniversary on Lemon Street in 2022, an enhanced and remodeled facility is needed to better serve our community. The Library Board and Friends of the Library are in support of the Library pursuing this grant opportunity.

The Florida Department of State, Division of Library and Information Services provides state funding, which is determined annually by the Florida Legislature, for public library construction including remodeling and/or expansion of existing facilities. Funds are awarded on a dollar-for-dollar match of the grant amount up to a total maximum grant award of $500,000. The Finance Department has confirmed that matching funds are available in the Library Impact and Library Memorial (donations) accounts.
