A great spot to go to meet other English families. They have a beautiful building with a courtyard where you can sit and read your books if you choose to and a wealth of information on Merida and the Yucatan. Family memberships are only $340 pesos for a year and you can take items out for two weeks at a time. Not only do they have books, but they also have movies and books on disk. Should you choose, you can ‘buy’ a book on the mural in the courtyard and have your favourite book or any advertising on the wall.
