Lutz Branch Library (HCPLC)

The Lutz Branch Library is a neighborhood branch of the Hillsborough County Public Library Cooperative at the corner of U.S. 41 and Lutz-Lake Fern Road. Library service in Lutz started with a bookmobile in 1961, and the branch has been at this site since 1970, with an expansion in the early 2000s bringing it to about 12,000 square feet. It has a community room and two small meeting rooms for programs, a Friends of the Library book shop called The Book Depot, and a hand-carved brick mural on the outside of the building.
