The year is 1963. JFK is President, Beatlemania is about to begin,<br />
<strong>and</strong> the Burbank Central <strong>Library</strong> first opened its doors.<br />
This library has had an extraordinary run, but it’s time for a new one.<br />
The Burbank City Council is considering construction of a new Central <strong>Library</strong> as<br />
part of the Burbank Civic Center Project. If you’d like to see this happen, let the<br />
City Council know what a modern Central <strong>Library</strong> would mean to you <strong>and</strong> your<br />
community by emailing citycouncil@burbankca.gov.<br />
