There is a nook for kids in the temporary library.
Los Angeles City has placed two portable buildings in the Palisades Library Parking lot, 861 Alma Real. And. . .they’ve added books and staff. Now a mini-ceremony will be held for the opening of the temporary Palisades Branch Library at 1 p.m. on Friday, February 27.
Friends of the Palisade Library President Cameron Pfizenmaier wrote CTN that they had asked the City not to have it on Friday at that time, because it might be difficult for many to attend, because of school and work . .but plans were set.
“The following day, Saturday, February 28, the Friends will have cookies and balloons at the library to take advantage of all the foot traffic happening in town and at the Palisades Recreation Center (last day of the winter basketball season),” Pfizenmaier said. “Hope to see you there.”
The portable library and the adjacent room, which is available for community meetings is open Tuesday through Saturday from 1 to 5 p.m. The books the city has brought to the library are the most requested in the system and Pacific Palisades residents can be first in line to check them out. The Palisades Library burned during the 2025 Palisades Fire.
