Description

East Lake is a Census area that consists of the separate sub-communities of East Lake Woodlands, Lansbrook, Ridgemoor, Woodfield, Boot Ranch, and Tarpon Woods. Its boundaries include Pasco County to the north, Hillsborough County to the east, the city of Oldsmar to the south, and Palm Harbor and the city of Tarpon Springs to the west. It is represented in the U.S. House of representatives by Gus Bilirakis.

The area is popular with families due to the quality of East Lake High School which has managed to rate equivalently with Palm Harbor's University High School (both A+ rated), despite not having the attraction of an International Baccalaureate program like Palm Harbor University High. Also of benefit are the top-flight youth recreational programs offered by East Lake/City of Oldsmar.

Public Library

The East Lake Community Library is the public library that services the East Lake and greater Pinellas County area. It is a member of the Pinellas Public Library Cooperative. The library itself is a result of community initiative which resulted in the ELCL opening a physical building November 1, 1999. [4]

In 2013 the ELCL "became an independent library with its own taxing district, thereby providing a new revenue stream for operational expenses and enhancements to the building. This also resulted in an increase in hours, staffing, programs, services, and collections."[5]

The library’s outdoor space is designated as a Florida Butterfly Garden.[6] As of January 2015, the library has established a special collection area for local, self-published authors to submit their works for circulation and display.[7]

In 2016 Governor Rick Scott passed the Florida State Budget granting the ELCL a $1,000,000 in funding for expansion of the library. [8] On November 20th, 2017, the library broke ground on the phase 1 of the expansion which aimed to expand the library by 2,600 square feet. [9]
