From the Branch Manager: Community Library Specialists Daniel Carr, Jennifer Livingston, and I welcome you to the Point Reyes Library, located in the Old Creamery Building in downtown Point Reyes Station. Because our library is located at the gateway to the National Seashore, we are regularly visited by patrons from all over the world. We’re also right in the heart of West Marin cheese country, so in addition to our regular collection of books, DVDs, and audios, we have a growing collection of materials about artisan cheese-making.
Point Reyes is a diverse community, rich with readers and writers. We host four monthly book clubs in English and in Spanish and regular programming for babies, children, teens, and adults. Please stop by and say hello when you’re in the neighborhood!
