Madera County Library Service
Starting in 1901 with a book on lumber, the library moved from place to place until 1917, when this historic building was built with county funds only. That eliminated strings from grants. An example of home rule. This was the first free library in the state under the Library Act of 1911.
100 years of most satisfactory service.
