Enjoy a summer-themed book with Littlerock Library's Adult Book Club as we discuss 'Paper Palace' by Miranda Cowley Heller. Pick up a copy at Littlerock Library or use Libby for a digital version. This program is for adults.

On a perfect July morning Elle, a fifty-year-old happily married mother of three, awakens at "The Paper Palace"--the
family summer place which she has visited every summer of her life. This morning is different: last night Elle and
her oldest friend Jonas crept out the back door into the darkness and had sex with each other for the first time, all
while their spouses chatted away inside. Over the next 24 hours Elle will have to decide between the life she has
made with her genuinely beloved husband, Peter, and the life she always imagined she would have had with her
childhood love, Jonas, if a tragic event hadn't forever changed the course of their lives.

About the branch

Littlerock residents petitioned the County of Los Angeles for library service in August 1914. The original collection totaled 222 books supplied by the County of Los Angeles Public Library and was housed in a private residence. The library moved to a home of its own - Grandma's Fruit Stand - in 1926.

Early in 1938, Littlerock Library moved to the remodeled front room of a house near Keppel Union School. An eight-year hiatus began in 1949 when the library was among several small branches that were closed in favor of instituting bookmobile service in the Antelope Valley. However, in September 1957, a stationary facility in Littlerock was, again, established.

In June 1962, due to increasing public demand, the collection was moved to a 1,000 square foot leased building at 8135 Pearblossom Highway. Improvements and modernization to the building were made in 1974, and in 1976, an additional 600 square feet was acquired for expansion.

On December 18, 1998, the Littlerock Library moved to its current location. The new location is 3,680 square feet with ample parking, an expanded children's area, reading and periodical area, public Internet workstations, and a parenting collection dedicated to Mrs. Cecile Bosworth.
