Libraries
The Florence Riford La Jolla Branch Library
was opened in 1989 and has grown since that time
to
seventh in circulation within the City's 32 branch
library system. The library, located on Draper
Avenue, north of Pearl Street, has a floor area of
approximately 10,000 square feet and contains a
meeting room and an informational resource
facility. Land has been acquired adjoining this
branch for library use. As patron use of the

additional library space is planned for this
adjacent site in order to accommodate this demand.
The
library structure located next to the Atheneum
still remains and contributes to the overall
historic quality of the village area.
