Located between downtown and Lake Merritt, Oakland's Main Library is one of the largest public library facilities in the Bay Area. In addition to large collections of over 350,000 reference and circulating non-fiction and fiction books, the Main Library offers hundreds of current and historic magazines and newspapers, a major collection of sheet music and thousands of maps. There are federal, state and local government publications and a large collection of compact discs, videocassettes, DVDs and audiobooks. We also are home to the Oakland History Room, a significant resource on the history of our area, a large and active Children's Room, and the TeenZone.
