Ways to Help
There is no greater treasure of knowledge and culture in our community than our public libraries. And, no other institution benefits more from the support and commitment of our local community members, both in time and money.
There are many ways you can help.
Did You Know?
Walnut Creek’s first library was born in 1912 when members of the Women’s Improvement Club of Walnut Creek donated books from private collections to form the town’s first reading room.
