About the Almonte Library
In 2011 the Southern Oaks Library moved to the Almonte Shopping Center for a temporary location while their building on south Walker was getting renovated and as a result of the high usage by new library users in this neighborhood, the Metropolitan Library System saw a great need for a permanent library in this community.
In February of 2013, The Almonte Library will re-open in a leased store front at 2914 SW 59th, in the Almonte Shopping Center. This current location enjoys a 12,500 square foot store front space for the library and has a capacity of 35,000 library materials with a seating capacity for 60 people, designated spaces for children and teens, a magazine reading area and, includes a multi-purpose room for small meetings.
