No Internet At Miami-Dade Libraries This Weekend

MIAMI-DADE COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRARY SYSTEM

HistoryMiami and Miami-Dade’s Main Library will close over the weekend  (June 18-19)  due to an electrical project taking place in downtown Miami.

Library spokeswoman Leila Khalil  said the electrical work requires  the electricity at the main branch  at 101 W. Flagler St  to be shut off.  The main library shares a complex with HistoryMiami,  which will also be affected.

During the main library's closure, the others branches in the library system will not have access to the internet.

“We will not be able to control the temperature in the library computer room and our data center,  and because of that we’ll need to shut down our online services,” said Khalil.

Library branches across the system will lose internet access starting at 4 p.m. Friday.

Martinez said internet services will be restored Monday morning and the main branch will also reopen Monday at 10 a.m.
