The Grace Mellman Community Library ("Temecula County Center Library"),[1] located in Temecula, California, is a member of the Riverside County library system. As a full-service library, it has over 80,000 items, and offers materials, programs, and services for all ages. The library is closed on Sundays and Federal holidays.

To reach the chldren's room, students pass through a "magic tunnel", an experience shared by all First Grade students in the city.[2]

After the city experienced tremendous growth, a second library, the Temecula Public Library opened in December 2006.

Volunteer services, such as staffing a used bookstore, are provided by the Friends of the Temecula Libraries.[3]
