Shops in Boyle Heights

A storefront lending library across from Mariachi Plaza, started by David Kipen in 2010, where membership is a few dollars and you can also just buy the book. The shelves lean heavily on Los Angeles writing and on Spanish-language fiction. After the city cut branch hours, this place extended its own, which is the kind of detail that tells you what it is for.

Tue to Sun, noon to 6pm. Closed Mon
