Review:
The Sacramento Public Library is California's fourth-largest public library system, circulating over two million items throughout 28 regional branches. The system was originally founded in 1857 and became a public library system in 1879, opening its current Italian Renaissance Revival-style central library branch in 1918. Visitors can explore the National Register of Historic Places-listed central library building Tuesdays through Sundays, with free resources available such as internet workstations and a makerspace with 3D printing and graphic design services. More than 288,000 items are held by the library, including collections of materials in Russian, Spanish, and Chinese. Free public special events held throughout the library system include children's storytimes, lectures, and arts and maker workshops.
