All LA County Library locations will be closed on Monday, March 25 in honor of César Chávez Day. Our digital library is open 24/7.
Due to technical updates, our catalog may be temporarily unavailable. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Join us as we read Side by Side and learn about César Chávez's legacy as a civil rights advocate and farm labor leader. Afterwards, create a paper flower bouquet to give to someone who has given their time to help others and their community.
This is a monthly book club for children who are beginning to read, want to practice reading aloud, and improve their reading comprehension skills. We'll take turns reading aloud, talk about the book, and make a fun art activity.
Copies of the book will be available at the program.
For readers ages 5 - 8.
Attendance is limited and advance registration is requested. To register, ask library staff or register online at Visit.LACountyLibrary.org/Events and filter by location or event date.
This event is held in-person. LA County Public Health strongly encourages masks and physical distancing indoors regardless of vaccination status. Masks will continue to be available for customers upon request. Please see the Guidelines for Attendees during the registration process for more information.

Hawaiian Gardens Library was founded in 1974 with a bookmobile serving the community. The next site for the library was at 12134 Tilbury Street (the former city hall); it served the community from 1979 until December 1987.
On January 19, 1988, the library was relocated to a 2,000 square foot building in the Hawaiian Gardens Town Center. The official dedication was held on March 9, 1988.
In 1989, the facility was expanded to 4,000 square feet. An open house, with City and County dignitaries attending, was held on October 18, 1989.
The Hawaiian Gardens Library moved to a new 5,585 square foot building that is shared with the City of Hawaiian Gardens Public Safety Center at 11940 Carson Street in December 2008.
