Santa Cruz Public Libraries (SCPL) is thrilled to welcome the community to the Live Oak Library Annex at the Simpkins Family Swim Center (the Annex) located at 979 17th Avenue. On Saturday, November 23, the Live Oak Library Annex at Simpkins Family Swim Center and SCPL will host an Open House from 11:00AM- 1:00PM inviting the community to visit the space and learn more about the services it provides. This celebration will include face-painting, a dance performance by Grupo Folklórico Los Mejicas and highlights of SCPL resources offered at our 10 branches.
The Annex is an extension of the resources that the Live Oak Branch Library provides. In collaboration with the Santa Cruz County Parks, the Annex primarily serves as a program space and quiet study area. It also provides access to study rooms and limited library services including a small collection of about 500 books for children and teens. Patrons will soon be able to place holds on books for pickup at the Annex. The SCPL Outreach Team will visit the Annex twice a week and the Annex will have a permanent book return drop box.
Given its strategic location in the vicinity of three school sites and the Boys and Girls Club, it provides a convenient third place for the Live Oak student population through the use of the space for programs led by SCPL Librarians.
