January 30 Irvine Public Library - Informational Meeting
The City of Irvine is transitioning Library services from the County of Orange to a new Irvine Public Library system, allowing for a more personalized, local approach to library services. Join us at a series of informational meetings to provide input on the future of your library system and help ensure library services meet the needs and desires of our community.
First Meeting:
Thursday, January 30
6 to 6:45 p.m.

Currently, the Orange County Public Library operates three locations in Irvine: Heritage Park Library, University Park Library, and Katie Wheeler Library. At its July 23, 2024, meeting, the Irvine City Council approved transitioning library branches from the County system to the City.
With this transition, the City is committed to creating dynamic library spaces that foster civic engagement and community growth along with equitable access to education resources. Learn more about the transition of library services at cityofirvine.org/libraries.
