Boyle Heights is a book desert.
There and elsewhere, Libros Schmibros puts good books into all hands, native and immigrant, Eastside and West, upholding literature as the brainstem and backbone of a democratic republic.
We are a Boyle Heights-based nonprofit lending library dedicated to the proposition that the world distills its best ideas from imaginations nourished on the humanities.
Through everything from book-lending at street level to advocacy at the highest levels, Libros Schmibros champions the pleasure of reading and its power to connect.
Libros Schmibros opened in July 2010, at a time when the public library serving Boyle Heights was closed.
What we've achieved so far, with the help of our donors and partners:
-
13+ years in operation
-
150+ community events
-
5,000+ members
-
50,000+ books circulated
Libros Schmibros champions the pleasures of literature and its power to change lives.
Your support makes it possible for us to continue offering books and community programming in Boyle Heights. This year, our programming includes Children's Story Hour, a Summer Fellowship for local high school students, the Reading Group on Mexican Philosophy and Culture, and Film Screenings presented by EASTSIDE CINECLUB.
