Initially, the Wiseburn Coordinating Council, formed in 1952, was instrumental in securing the services of the Los Angeles county Mobile Library for 2 years. They later petitioned Los Angeles County Supervisor
Kenneth
Hahn
and
County
Librarian
John
Henderson
for
the
establishment
of
a
permanent
Wiseburn
Library
in
the
Del
Aire
area.
A
small
County
Library
facility
(20'
x
60')
staffed
with
one
librarian
was
opened
on
January
4,
1956
in
a
store
front
building,
next
door
to
a
bar,
at
11936
Aviation
Blvd.
Despite
its
popularity,
it
was
closed
after
several
years
and
not
replaced
due
to
lack
of
suitable
housing.
Continued
community
efforts
and
the
support
of
Supervisor
Hahn,
eventually
resulted
in
an
unprecedented
tri-governmental
agreement
and
the
dedication
of
the
present
structure
on
February
12,
1966.
The
Wiseburn
School
District
currently
owns
the
building,
and
leases
it
to
the
County
of
Los
Angeles
Public
Library
for
use
as
a
public
library.
