This week, the Simi Valley Public Library joins libraries nationwide in celebrating the many ways libraries lead their communities through the transformative services, programs and expertise they offer. “Libraries Transform: Libraries Lead” is the theme for this year’s 60th anniversary celebration, reminding the public that libraries of all types serve as community compasses that lead users to endless opportunities for community engagement, enrichment and development.  

This annual celebration highlights the life-changing work of libraries, librarians and library workers. Libraries aren’t just places to borrow books or study—they’re also creative and engaging community centers where people can collaborate using new technologies and develop their skills and passions. All types of libraries - school, public, academic and special - participate.

So visit your Simi Valley Public Library in person or online to take advantage of the many free resources and services we offer! Books…are only the beginning.
