The Grass Valley CA library is a historic Carnegie library that is on the National Register of a…read morehistoric places. How awesome is that!? Very! It's a functioning library (part of the Nevada County library system) and historic building. The library is tiny. The first floor has computers and laptops, magazines, newspaper, fiction and non, music CDs, and movie DVDs. They have a self checkout. Downstairs in the basement is the children's section. The library hosts children's programs. There is no dedicated parking lot, it's all street parking. If you are in the area and appreciate historic buildings, drop on in. The librarians are use to folks stepping in to check out the architecture and to use the restrooms. But do keep in mind it's a library.... ssshhhh. HISTORY lesson: It was built in 1915 with a Andrew Carnegie grant. He funded the construction of about 1700 American libraries during 1883-1929. Grass Valley was awarded $15,000 which is equivalent to about $380,000 today. The town constructed the library near the childhood home of its distinguished citizen, Josiah Royce (1855-1916). The library branch was named in his behalf as well. He was born in Grass Valley. He was a smarty pants, a world renown philosopher. He was a Leading proponent of his time in Absolute idealism dealing with the meta physical view. Huh!? That is too academic for me to understand. He graduated form UC Berkeley and went on to teach at Harvard.

I'm a big fan of science fiction/fantasy and was sadly disappointed that there was only one shelf for me to choose from. That aside, I probably could have easily found something I'd enjoy from their very large array of simply "fiction" books.

Definitely has its own cute little vibe, I'm sure I'll be back.
