St. Johns County Public Library

Friends of Libraries groups have their very own national week of celebration! SJCPLS will be celebrating our seven Friends of the Library groups as part of the 17th annual National Friends of Libraries Week, Oct. 16-22, 2022. Through hard work and advocacy of the Friends of the Library, they help promote our libraries as a cornerstone of community education, providing opportunities for everyone to engage in the joy of life-long learning and connect with thoughts and ideas worldwide.


The Friends, the foundation of community support for the St. Johns County Public Library System, understand the critical importance of well-funded libraries and advocate to ensure that our libraries get the resources needed to provide a wide variety of services to all ages.

SJCPLS for Dyslexia Awareness Month

Each year, October is recognized worldwide as Dyslexia Awareness Month, a time to come together to raise awareness, share resources, and tell stories about dyslexia successes. SJCPLS is proud to share helpful library resources for people with dyslexia, such as the dyslexic font option in OverDrive and Libby.


Standard typefaces are often difficult to read for people with dyslexia as the letters are hard to differentiate and words tend to jumble together. Dyslexic fonts provide greater contrast in letters which solves this problem. Our digital library collections in OverDrive and Libby feature a dyslexic font option that makes determining letters much easier so readers can focus on finding and enjoying their next great read. Learn how to enable this feature by visiting this website.
