There are two libraries in Whittier. The Central Library is Uptown Whittier. The Whittwood Branch is located on Santa Gertrudes in the Whittwood Neighborhood.
Of course, you don't have to read the book at the library; you can use your library card to check it out. Take it home and read it over a couple of weeks.
Those of you who have been following me know that I have a special place in my heart for the Whittwood area, because of my Memories of My Childhood Home in Whittwood. However, despite all of the construction that is taking place around the Central Library, I prefer going there at this time. Sometimes I will go to the library when I simply want a quiet place to read. The chairs around the newspapers and magazines are still fairly comfortable, and you can sit there for hours, just reading the latest magazines.
