History
Founded in 1913 as the second County of Los Angeles Public Library, the San Dimas Library was orginally located in the back of Fairbank's Drug Store. Subsequently, it moved to a storefront location on Bonita Avenue. The present building, located in the San Dimas Civic Center, was dedicated in 1971.

Collection
The collection consists of books, magazine and newspaper subscriptions, CDs, DVD's and video cassettes. The library also has the local San Dimas newspaper on microfilm from 1913 through 1969.

Services
Adult and juvenile materials in English and Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Vietnamese. The library also has a large selection of large print books. There are also Preschool Storytimes on Fridays at 10:30 a.m., special programs and the annual Summer Reading Program for children, teens and adults.

Facilities
The building is approximately 13,590 square feet, including the meeting room. Special equipment includes microfilm/fiche reader and seven public access Internet workstations.
