North Hollywood Amelia Earhart Regional Library

The Mediterranean Revival style library features red brick walls, Spanish tile roofing, and decorative wrought iron gates at 5211 Tujunga Avenue.

The library began as two bookcases in a Lankershim post office before moving to its current location in 1929, when North Hollywood was developing.

The facility was renamed in 1981 to honor aviator Amelia Earhart, who lived in the area and frequently visited this branch library.

The 15,150-square-foot facility provides reading materials, computer access, tutoring services, and educational programs for the North Hollywood community.

Seven multi-pane recessed windows in the clerestory illuminate the interior, while two large coats of arms decorate the building's exterior sides.
