Located in Room 329 on the 3rd floor of the Manatee
County Courthouse, the Law Library is a book-oriented, research
library containing both Florida and Federal Laws. The Law Library,
set up as a Special District by the Florida Legislature, has Florida
laws dating back to the 1800's and is open to the general public
who wish to do their own legal research. For pro se litigants
(people filing their own cases without the aid of an attorney),
there are some forms available in the Law Library for duplication.
A coin-operated copy machine is provided for public use and charges
$0.20 per page for copies. While the Law Library is staffed with
a librarian, the law librarian cannot answer any legal questions
or provide any legal assistance in any matter.
