In 1995 the Coconut Grove Branch Library celebrated 100 years of service. The Library, which overlooks Biscayne Bay, includes a wing built as a replica of the original 1901 structure. Appropriate for this seaside community, the Branch is home to a unique Sea Life collection honoring the memory of Midshipman, Julian Bishop, U.S. Naval Academy 1912. A warm welcome and friendly service are traditional at the Coconut Grove Branch Library.
