Camarillo Public Library - Public library in Camarillo - 4101 Las Posas Rd, USA

Parking: free and plenty of spots Probably the most beautiful public library in southern California. It's up there with Cerritos, Huntington Beach, and Los Angeles Central library. Has two floors. The young kid section is great. Has a room designed like a submarine, an area like a ship, an area with mosaic bench, and more. Very clean building. Camarillo did a great job with this. Anyone with a CA ID can get a library card here. Definitely worth seeing if you are in or passing through Camarillo. They have a used book store that closes at 4PM.

I love this place. So beautifully built, and such a great environment to be in, and the architecture is absolutely breathtaking! I spent and enjoyed many hours here🧡 Also, they have a lot of cool programs and the people who work here are all so friendly and welcoming!!! Highly recommend this gem of a library!

Huge library! This was my first time visiting this place and I was pleasantly surprised. They had private rooms to study or have a small meeting. Really lovely place.

Ever wanted your own place to curl up with a book and lose yourself for the day? This library is one of a kind. From the Persian carpet made of tile to the pirate playscape in the children’s section, this library is a dream. The Friends of the Library at the entry has an extensive selection of donated books that are sold to support the library. The teen section is for teens only( just like they like it!) and the huge children’s section has everything from picture books, series books and early readers, graphic novels, foreign language books and a fiction and non-fiction section. Upstairs you can find Spanish language books, a business section and newspapers. Study carrells can reserved for study sessions. Hopefully one day, a lovely cafe will return again to the former one’s spot. This library is independent and not a part of the Ventura County Library system.

Felt unwelcome. Don’t tend to let my mind go towards racism but it definitely seemed as if I wasn’t wanted there and had staff staring at me. I’m a nursing student so. I spend my most of my time in libraries. It’s heartbreaking that racism still exists.

Library is beautiful, plenty of seating to study/study rooms, and clean But that doesn’t make up for the fact they have such STRICT food and drink rules. I have come a few times and I ALWAYS get talked to about my water cup. It’s spill proof with a straw. REALLY!?!? And they have multiple study rooms, you think they would cater to students. The brain is a muscle! Maybe allow a protein bar? Nope, got spoken to about that as well. I mean I would understand if I was a messy toddler, but I am an adult studying on my computer with my water sitting next to me. But instead I am constantly losing my train of thought to get interrupted just to be told that my cup is not to Camarillo Library standards. So silly. Unfortunately I have to take my studying elsewhere, even though my tax dollars pay for that facility, but I digress. I am off my soap box now. Fair warning though, drink water at your own risk!!!

Such a beautiful library, I was astounded at the beautiful architecture of this building. Very nicely organized, clean and professional. The service was great, I was greeted and attended with kindness. They help you out with any question you have, and they’re very helpful with taking books out and using the computers. My new favorite place in all of Camarillo.

I just came in for the first time since moving back to Camarillo 6 months ago. What a beautiful facility and friendly, helpful staff! I remember Camarillo's first 2 libraries and this blows them away. What an asset to the community!
