PVLD is governed by an elected Board of Library Trustees that consists of five members who voluntarily serve without monetary compensation.[2] PVLD's three libraries - Peninsula Center Library, Malaga Cove Library, and Miraleste Library - serve the cities of Palos Verdes Estates, Rancho Palos Verdes, Rolling Hills Estates, and Rolling Hills, California.[3] In 2010, the three branches of the PVLD recorded a door-count of 653,481 people, and circulated 837,386 items out of their collection of 336,000+ items.[4] The district employs 81 employees as of March 2007 (37 full-time and 44 part-time). Services offeredPVLD's website[5] offers access to a wealth of information including historic photos of the Palos Verdes Peninsula, information about early Japanese farmers on the Peninsula,[6] databases and full-text magazine and newspaper articles,[7] downloadable audio and e-books,[8] and information about upcoming events and programs.[9] It offers interlibrary loans[10] and a passport acceptance agency.[11] The Peninsula Center Library has notary public staff.[12] PVLD partners with the Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified School District to improve the quality of education for Palos Verdes students, as well as the Palos Verdes Peninsula Chamber of Commerce to support local businesses, and other local organizations to enhance the quality of life on the Palos Verdes Peninsula. VolunteersThe Peninsula Friends of the Library is an all-volunteer membership organization founded in 1961, in order to enhance the services and programs of the Peninsula libraries.[13] Its membership fees, along with funds raised through book sales and the Library Shop at Peninsula Center Library, and other events are used to provide ongoing support for many services and programs including:
Children servicesThe Palos Verdes Library District offers thirteen story times a week throughout the district. The story times, aimed at a wide range of ages, are conducted by professional librarians who read stories and incorporate songs, movement, and puppets. There are also arts and crafts programs and other programs designed especially for school-aged children, including the Miraleste Teen Book Club. Adult servicesThe district also offers an online catalog,[15] online databases, book clubs,[16] a knitting club, a chess club, a history discussion group at the Malaga Cove Library, and many other programs on their events calendar.[17] RenovationsThe Malaga Cove Library (originally the Palos Verdes Public Library) is on the National Register of Historic Places [18][19] and is undergoing restoration. The Miraleste Library was remodeled in 2011 as an alternative to a full expansion.[20] References1. ^{{cite web|url=https://harvester.census.gov/imls/search/Library_Detail.asp?ID=CA0092&ThisType=LS&LibraryName=palos%20verdes%20library%20district&LibraryID=&Address=&City=&State=CA&Zip=90274&Distance=&County=&PhoneAreaCode=&Phone=&ResultSetNumber=1&LibTypes=LS%2CCE%2CBR%2CBS%2CBM&StateSelectedIndex=5&procqstr=1|title=Public Libraries in the United States Survey|accessdate= July 25, 2012}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.pvld.org/about/trustees|title=Palos Verdes Library District Board of Trustees|accessdate= July 25, 2012}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.pvld.org/locations|title=Palos Verdes Library District Locations|accessdate= July 25, 2012}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=https://harvester.census.gov/imls/search/Library_Detail.asp?ID=CA0092&ThisType=LS&LibraryName=palos%20verdes%20library%20district&LibraryID=&Address=&City=&State=CA&Zip=90274&Distance=&County=&PhoneAreaCode=&Phone=&ResultSetNumber=1&LibTypes=LS%2CCE%2CBR%2CBS%2CBM&StateSelectedIndex=5&procqstr=1|title=Public Libraries in the United States Survey|accessdate= July 25, 2012}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.pvld.org|title=Palos Verdes Library District Website|work= pvld.org|accessdate= July 25, 2012}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.40families.org|title=40 Families Project|work=www.40families.org|accessdate=February 26, 2010}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.pvld.org/resources|title=Palos Verdes Library District Online Resources|accessdate= July 25, 2012}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=http://ebooks.pvld.org|title=Palos Verdes Library District eBook Collection|work= ebooks.pvld.org|accessdate= July 25, 2012}} 9. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.pvld.org/calendar|title=Palos Verdes Library District Events Calendar|work= pvld.org|accessdate= July 25, 2012}} 10. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.pvld.org/services/borrow|title=Palos Verdes Library District ILL Services|work= pvld.org|accessdate= July 25, 2012}} 11. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.pvld.org/services/passport|title=Palos Verdes Library District Passport Services|work= pvld.org|accessdate= July 25, 2012}} 12. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.pvld.org/services/notary|title=Palos Verdes Library District Notary Public Services|work= pvld.org|accessdate= July 25, 2012}} 13. ^{{cite web|title=About the Peninsula Friends of the Library|url=http://www.pvldfriends.org/about-us/|accessdate=30 July 2012}} 14. ^{{cite web|title=Hours of the Palos Verdes Library District|url=http://www.pvld.org/hours|accessdate=30 July 2012}} 15. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.pvld.org/catalog|title=Palos Verdes Library District Catalog|work= pvld.org|accessdate= July 25, 2012}} 16. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.pvld.org/services/bookclubs|title=Palos Verdes Library District Book Clubs|accessdate= July 25, 2012}} 17. ^{{cite web|url=http://host5.evanced.info/pvld/evanced/eventcalendar.asp?ag=&et=&dt=&df=calendar&cn=0&private=0&ln=0,%201,%202,%203,%204,%205|title=Palos Verdes Library District Events Calendar|accessdate= July 26, 2012}} 18. ^{{cite web|title=Approval of Malaga Cove Library fka.
