The Palos Verdes Library District saw increases in circulation, program attendance, and door count despite a declining economy. The district achieved technology upgrades including a new integrated library system and social media presence. Collection formats were expanded and weeding projects undertaken. Adult and children's programming grew. Summer reading saw record participation. Partnerships increased and volunteers answered over 1,000 questions per month. Challenges included flat traditional library use and potential state borrowing of property tax revenues. Plans were outlined to restore the Malaga Cove Library and expand the Miraleste Library to better support community needs.
