Local Public Libraries 

Any LA County resident can apply for a library card if you don't have one already, either at a local library branch or even online. Also, LAUSD students are automatically assigned a Student Success Card. That means that they can use their cards to access ALL of LAPL's online resources AND they can also use the card to borrow up to 5 books, instantly get digital books, magazines, movies, and newspapers, find an online tutor and their are no fines and fees ever! Go here if you don't know your child's card number.

The closest branches to our school are the:

Playa Vista Branch  - a cozy little branch in Playa Vista, walking distance to a great playground and the Ballona Discovery Park.

Mar Vista Branch - Parking can be tight sometimes, but this branch has a dedicated children's librarian, Ms. Melanie, that is incredibly knowledgeable and kind :) It also has a large children's section as well. 

Westchester-Loyola Branch

Library cards are available for free to permanent and temporary residents of California. There is no minimum age requirement to apply for a library card. Children under 18 must have a parent or guardian sign their library card application. For more info about getting an LA County Library card go here.
