I remember my mom taking me and my sister there during the summer to check out books. We used to check out the same books over and over again because we loved them so much. The library is no longer located in Cedar Center. They have a beautiful new building which is larger than the library I used to go to. A new building for another generation of Arnold kids to develop a life-long love of reading. :)

A great place to spend an afternoon in San Andreas! It's located not a quarter mile off Hwy 49 in the newer section of quaint San Andreas with all of the amenities of a major modern library... ample parking, internet access, newspapers and periodicals, a wonderful children's reading and play area, and a fantastic Friends of the Library sale room. The staff is courteous, knowledgeable, and friendly assisting with everything from searches, book orders, and even extra time on the computers if time allows. Speaking of computers, internet reception in this mountainous region of the Sierra Foothills isn't great, spotty at best and this library provides numerous computers with reliable dedicated connections for the use of members and registered visitors. The selection of books is good with a larger focus on young readers, fiction, and crafts but books may be ordered from other libraries in the county for free or from other counties for a nominal fee. My favorite area, the Book Sale room is constantly being restocked with tomes of all genres: hardback, soft cover, and collectible periodicals in good to new condition and at great prices. Often bags and bags of unsorted books will be stacked against the walls for the die-hard treasure seeker. A good selection of VCRs, cassette tapes, and the occasional DVD are also available. In the hallway before the Sale room are tables stacked with freebies. Comfortable seating arrangements are available throughout the main room offering quiet socializing or private reading. Large conference rooms are also available for meetings, gatherings, and lectures. For convenience, the bathrooms are large and pristine, located both in the library proper and in the hallway within the building preceding the library itself. The lobby carries pamphlets, brochures, and information on current events and services offered in the county and local area. Besides all these great services, there are boxes and bags near the building's entrance of magazines for all readers, most of which are current. Take as many as you want! If you live or visit the San Andreas area and in need of a good read, computer access, a place to bring the kids, or just to while away the time, the main Calaveras County Library is an ideal place to spend the day. I highly recommend it!

Ahhhhhh~Yes, I do hear the Angels' Choir . . . However, I never applied for an EDC LIBRARY ID Card so, I decided I'll apply for an ID Card on my birthday which just so happens to be TODAY~YAY: I was given a short library card, application form which I copiously completed, submitting my CDL, signed the application, and gave my application and CDL to the awesomely cool Librarian. Afterwards, the Librarian escorted me to the computer station giving me succinct instructions using the computers. IMPORTANT FYI: When you're ready printing your documentation-whatever you do, DO NOT PRESS CTRL + P; unfortunately, using this shortcut will truncate your document printing only the first page~DOH! Instead, scroll down to the bottom of the page searching for three dots in a column in the right side clicking the mouse on the three dots selecting PRINT. Voila~Finished!

We are hoping to also join the 1000 books before kindergarten next time we go. Overall, it was clean, spacious areas for all ages.
