Fullerton’s Library Board of Trustees will hold a special tour and meeting on Saturday, May 5, 10:00 a.m. to allow members of the public to inspect the closed Hunt Branch Library and discuss possible uses for the facility with the trustees. The  Hunt Branch Library is located at  201 S Basque Ave, Fullerton, CA 92833.

This tour represents a rare opportunity to inspect the inside of the library, which is currently leased to a neighboring church for only $ 1,300.00 per month. The building, designed by world famous modernist architect William Pereira, served as a branch of the Fullerton Public Library for half a century before being steadily defunded and eventually closed.
