The Branch Library, in which the District Literacy Services are housed, was dedicated on the current site in 1957 and was called the Arroyo Seco Branch Library. It was closed after Proposition 13 was passed in 1978 and reopened in 1991 at which time its name was changed to the Bob Lucas Memorial Branch Library and Literacy Center.

The collection consists of adult, teen and juvenile materials, featuring popular fiction and non-fiction, magazines, DVDs, audiobooks, encyclopedias and a reference collection. Adult and children's Spanish language fiction and non-fiction books are also available.

The Branch is pleased to offer free wireless Internet access to patrons with appropriately equipped wireless devices. The branch also offers five public access computer terminals equipped with free Internet, Microsoft Word, Excel, and Power Point. A valid Altadena library card is required for use of the public access computers.

Preschool storytime is held Mondays at 12:00 p.m. For special events and holiday programs, call 626-798-8338, or visit our events calendar.
