Be sure to check out Governor Newsom's Proclamation in both English and Braille declaring October 2025 as “Disability Employment Awareness Month.” This is the first time in the history of the state that a proclamation has been issued in Braille. gov.ca.gov/2025/10/07/gov…
Governor Gavin Newsom@CAgovernor

California joins the nation in recognizing Disability Employment Awareness Month — a celebration of the 7M+ adults with disabilities who call California home and enrich our state. Together, we can keep growing an inclusive workforce for the fourth-largest economy in the world.

We are very hungry for some spring weather! Happy first day of Spring! Our library card found its way all the way to DC this past month and couldn't pass up a photo op with this library celebrity. 🌸🦋🐛

Spring us almost upon us! Perhaps these recipes from all seasons will inspire your dining for the coming warmer weather! Will it be the soufflé, the lemon mousse or the Blushing Jessica? #libraries #recipes

I spy with my little eye something...green🍀! For #StPatricksDay we found some green things around the library: a set of bound U.S. Bureau of Mines reports and investigations; a tiny frog ornament; the movable shelving and Spanish irises (the leaves are green!)

One of our most popular pages on the State Library website is the one for our State Symbols (including the Golden Chanterelle)! library.ca.gov/california-his…

Just three years ago, @Ash_Kalra wrote the legislation that designated the California Golden Chanterelle (Cantharellus californicus) as the State Mushroom. Without spoiling too much... @CalTreasurer picked some epic conference room names. Thank you @IrishLaborer and @fionama!

March 8 is #internationalwomensday, a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender equality. The first IWD gathering was in 1911. Find out more at un.org/en/observances…

Spring is in the air in our Fragrance Garden at 900 N. Street. If you're in downtown Sacramento, take some time to come by and smell the flowers, enjoy the fountain, and maybe settle on a bench nearby to read a good book.

Have you been to our 900 N location? The lobby has a beautiful floor with random letters designed by Joseph D’Ambrosio and, if you stand in the center, the sound will change because of the ceiling.
