    What a gem! This historic and architecturally stunning library is a must-visit for anyone who…read moreappreciates beautiful details and community spaces. From the moment you walk in, you're surrounded by gorgeous stained glass windows and thoughtful touches everywhere you look. There are several inviting reading and learning rooms, plus a dedicated children's section that's perfect for little ones. Outside, there's a small but lovely garden with plenty of seating; ideal for enjoying a book on a nice day. I especially loved discovering the board where anyone can post a book review. It's a great way to engage with fellow readers and get new recommendations. My husband and I make it a point to support local businesses and community resources when we travel; signing up for a library card and following their event calendar is one way we connect with each new place. This library is truly a treasure, and we highly recommend stopping by whether you're a resident or just passing through!

My fiancé loved how busy the library and gardens were just at 10am opening time, seats filled, people typing away with their morning coffee planning their day out. I saw how the library assisted people from all words of ages and backgrounds, especially children and I look forward to bringing my family to this library. This would be my home library.

As of June they have reopened their doors. Note they have changed phone numbers too! The one on Yelp is correct, google is still being updated. (951) 654-4470 is the number you want to call. Being new in town, I went in looking for books for toddlers and a summer program and just like any library they had both. The girls at the desk were friendly and helpful. If you're applying for a new library card, bring ID and proof of address if you haven't updated address on ID. They will take an utility bill. Simple. Check done The selection of books here is fair, dvds not so much. Books vary on subjects and some in Spanish too. You do have to consider is fairly small library. Don't expect to find every single book in mind. But nonetheless don't feel limited to only space and books found here. Being a county library, you can order books from any library to be brought here and simply pick up once items arrive. If you're looking for a room full of computers, that's not the case here. They have about 4-5 computers with access to the internet. Printing black and white is .15 cents and color is .65 cents a page. They have space designated for kids which is nice and clean but in my humble opinion should be stocked a bit more. Overall this library is small and would love for the city to consider expanding it in a near future as the size of the library compared to all the households in San Jacinto is not proportional.
