Bell Library

Welcome to Bell Library, a cherished community hub located at 4411 Gage Avenue, Bell, California. Established in 1913 as the 29th branch of the County of Los Angeles Public Library System, Bell Library has been a cornerstone of knowledge and community engagement for over a century. Our current location, established in 1960 and expanded in 1973, reflects our commitment to serving one of the most culturally diverse communities in Los Angeles County.

At Bell Library, we offer a wide range of services and programs designed to inspire, educate, and entertain patrons of all ages. Join us for the LA County Library’s 45th Annual Bookmark Contest, where young artists from grades K-12 can showcase their creativity. Participate in our monthly events, including the One Book, One County Author Talk and Celebration, or explore our collection with a Kindle Paperwhite, pre-loaded with expertly selected titles.

For students, our Homework Centers provide enhanced resources and support, while our Family Place Library offers early childhood information and parent education to support your child’s development. Additionally, our Consumer Health Information Program provides access to reliable medical resources, ensuring you're informed about your health.
