History: The city of South Gate was incorporated in 1923 with a population of about 2, 500 residents. The first South Gate Library was opened that same year in a back
room
of
City
Hall.
Starting
in
1931,
the
County
of
Los
Angeles
Free
Library
began
providing
library
service
to
local
residents.
In

the
County

Los
Angeles
built
a
library
in
the
South

Civic
Center,
north
of
California

Boulevard.
In
the
1960's,
plans
were
made
to
build
a
larger,
more
modern
public
library
for
the
prospering
community
that
was
home
to
several
major
manufacturers,
including
General
Motors.
In
1973,
the
Leland
R.
Weaver
Library,
named
in
honor
of
a
former
South
Gate
councilman,
was
officially
opened
to
the
public
at
its
present
location
on
Tweedy
Boulevard.
The
collection
is
comprised
of
136,
174
books
6,

audio
cassettes
5,
912
