Your new web site should be very nice however,I learned while trying to logon this evening that I now need a password. Perhaps you could send one to me or advise on how I can enter a password. I wish I had known about this before I was locked out of the site.
Also, I initially tried to enter this message into the suggestion box, but it would not accept any of the generated verification codes. Each time that I entered the displayed code (tried about 6 or 7 times) it came back as an error that said “No verification code generated”. Don’t you just hate having to work out all of the new bugs?
Thanks again.
Could you please give me the name and e-mail address of your Adult Programming Director.
Judy,
Apologies for the excessive delay in responding to your comment and questions–it is entirely my fault. But please see this post for Quick Start instructions for logging into our new library catalog: http://www.keyslibraries.org/2010/new-library-catalog-debuts/
I’ll take a look at our Suggestion Box right now to see what the problem is.
Again, my apologies. Hope you haven’t given up on us!
Anne
Donato,
We would really love to have an Adult Programming Director, but that position doesn’t exist in our library. Each of the library managers listed above would be able to help with your programming needs.
Thanks for writing,
Anne
Do the Librarys on Big Pine Key and Marathon have facilities for the public to access the WEB and print. For example check in on line for a flight and print boarding card.
Kind Regards Chris.
Hi Chris,
Thanks for posting! Yes, both Big Pine Key and Marathon libraries offer public web access and printing. Just before coming over, please call the library at one of the numbers above to make sure the network is running and that the printer is cooperating. We have infrequent interruptions in service, but wouldn’t want to disappoint you.
We look forward to your visit!
Anne

Thank you, Fred! I’ve updated the link to the county’s new site here: http://www.monroecounty-fl.gov/index.aspx?nid=307
Thanks again for pointing this out.
Anne
I understand you are in need of a librarian, but I did not find a place to fill out an application. Could you direct me to the correct place to apply for the position.
Thank You
Don Huskey
Thank you for your interest! We don’t have any openings at the moment, but expect some new positions in the Fall. Here’s the link to our county’s job website page: http://www.monroecounty-fl.gov/jobs.aspx
Thanks again!
This might sound like a crazy request, but I grew up in the keys and every weekend my dad would take us to the Islamorada library. Mine and my sisters favorite book was a book of Russian fairy tales. We read it so much I even remember where on the shelf it was back when I was a kid. Anyways, I’m trying to find that book. Back in the 80’s it was falling apart so I’m not sure if you still have it. If I remember correctly, it had a picture of a bird on the front (watercolor peacock I think) and it was so tall it had to be placed sideways on the shelf. Is there any way you could maybe send me a picture of “The Firebird and other Russian fairy tales” by Boris Zvorykin. Do you know, if that’s not the book I’m looking for, if the card catalog from back then would still exist or if there was any other way to find the book? Did you keep a record of who checked out which books?
Hi–what a fun question! Thank you for sharing this great memory.
Do any of these covers look like your favorite book?: http://www.librarything.com/work/278924/covers
We have a copy of this 1978 book at the Key Largo library. The summary reads: “Retells four Russian folk tales: The Firebird, Vassilissa the Fair, Maria Morevna, and The Snow Maiden.”
No, we haven’t kept card catalog or check-out records from the 1980s. But, I’ll ask the Islamorada librarians if they’re familiar with the book.
Anne
You know, i think that might be it! That would be fabulous if the know the book i’m talking about! Thanks!
Hello,
When is the next meeting of the Library Advisory Board? The most recent agenda on your website is for the 10/25/11 meeting in Islamorada and someone named Anne Layton Rice signed this agenda saying the next meeting will be 10/25/11 in Islamorda. Also the LAB webpage under meetings shows only the 10/25/11 meeting will be at 10:30 AM, but when is the next meeting?
Thanks,
Fred
Hi Fred,
Thank you for your question. The next meeting is scheduled for December 20th in Key Largo starting at 10:30a.m. The 2012 schedule should be approved and posted on the page soon.
Thanks again,
Anne
