📖 About West Kendall Regional Library
The West Kendall Regional Library serves the sprawling suburban communities of southwestern Miami-Dade County — a swath of planned residential neighborhoods collectively known as West Kendall, with an estimated population of 200,000 residents. As a Regional Library in the Miami-Dade Public Library System, it offers a larger footprint and broader services than neighborhood branches: a 150-seat auditorium, two meeting rooms (capacities 30 and 25), a coworking center for up to 15 people, and a YOUmake Miami creative fabrication studio with Cricut machines, 3D printing, block printing, hand embroidery, and photography workshops. Critically, West Kendall Regional is one of only three MDPLS branches designated as an official U.S. Passport Application Acceptance Facility by the U.S. Department of State — making it an essential stop for residents throughout southwestern Miami-Dade. Saturday homework tutoring (K–12) and the full Florida Electronic Library (FEL) digital collection round out its community role.
