The computers are lined up on a long table in the center of the room, side by side. The computer screens are very close together with no privacy screens between them. I really liked the old library better because it had a lot more charactor to it. I can't help but think that they are just trying to spend the extra tax money they are getting from the Pine Ridge and Pine Hills Villagers who pay taxes to Fruitland Park.
I will have to check it out. I liked the old Fruitland Park Library.
