About Us

Welcome to Bell Gardens Library, a cornerstone of the Bell Gardens community since 1938. Located at 7110 Garfield Avenue, our library has been serving residents with a rich history of growth and expansion, reflecting the dynamic nature of our city. Originally opened on Live Oak Street, the library has moved over the years to accommodate the growing needs of our patrons, finally settling into our current location in 1970. A major refurbishment in 2007 has ensured that our facilities remain modern and welcoming to all visitors.
Bell Gardens Library is a proud member of the LA County Library system, offering a wide range of services and programs designed to inspire creativity and learning. We invite young artists to participate in LA County Library’s 45th Annual Bookmark Contest and encourage everyone to join us for various events throughout the year, including the One Book, One County celebration.
Our library is equipped with modern amenities, including the ability to check out Kindle Paperwhites pre-loaded with a curated selection of titles, ensuring you have access to great reads without needing internet access. We also offer laptops for use within the library, providing essential technology access to our community members.
Explore a world of digital content with your LA County Library card, granting you free access to eBooks, eAudiobooks, magazines, music, and movies. Our library supports educational success with 48 Homework Centers and online homework help, as well as being a Family Place Library, offering resources and support for early childhood development.
For those interested in health information, our Consumer Health Information Program provides access to reliable medical resources. Additionally, our Citizenship-in-a-Bag toolkit is available for those on the path to citizenship.
Join us at Bell Gardens Library to read, learn, and connect with your community. We look forward to welcoming you!

"I just had a great experience with nancy,she was patient and very kind with me since I'm not tech savy,I recommend this library thank you Nancy"
"Staff is wonderful and go out of their way to help you. Weather it is a book, computer issues or referencing information, they do their best to make sure you are satisfied with their help."
"The staff here is always so nice and helpful! I miss the in-person programs they had for the kids but they do give out packets with stuff inside for them if you go in person. There's also online programs that are pretty cool."
"Grew up in BG. The library is humble but always clean and has the sweetest staff. I've gone through a lot in my life and this place has always felt like a safe place for me since age 4."
"Really enjoy taking my little ones to this library , my daughter eliana loves going to the story times on Tuesdays, fun songs, stories, and arts and crafts. The staff is great!"
