La Mesa Library - June 2026 Update by Cassandra Koldewyn, Branch Manager

July 16, 2026

June 2026 saw significant growth from 2025: a 23% increase in visitors and a 57% increase in program attendance. We look forward to continuing to offer high-quality, community-focused programming with your support. Thank you!

2026 Summer Learning Challenge continues, seeing large crowds every Tuesday for the teen and family events, as well as for our special weekend adult programs. If you’ve participated online or with the paper application, don’t forget to stop by to claim your prizes: a coupon for free entry into the Natural History Museum, a book of your choosing, and a new canvas SDCL tote. You can log your reading at www.sdcl.org/summer.
