Arcadia's Second City Library Building -- Located on the southwest corner of First Avenue and Wheeler Street, this "modern" library building, modeled after the Hill Avenue Branch of the Pasadena Public Library "because of its efficient floor arrangement, suitable size, and architectural good taste," opened its doors in April, 1930. With the addition, in 1954, of a spacious "children's wing" -- designed and equipped especially for the needs of young people -- this building served as Arcadia's library until April 1961, when the present library on the southwest corner of Duarte Road and Santa Anita Avenue was first dedicated.

From 1914 to 1920 the local library had been a branch of the Los Angeles County Library, housed in the McCoy Block.) This building served as the City's library until a new building was constructed in 1930.
