Our story is just beginning — and we want you to help us write the next chapter. Tell us what you’d love to see in Irvine Public Library collections, programs, services, and spaces. Whether it’s a new kind of event, a favorite book genre, or ideas for library buildings, your feedback will help guide where we go from here.
Community feedback we receive this fall will be combined with research and analysis to set priorities for Irvine Public Library’s 2026–29 Strategic Plan. The final plan will be available in spring 2026.

 Stories that Inspire –– Celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month
September 15–October 15 is National Hispanic Heritage Month. Discover the richness of Hispanic and Latino culture through the pages of a library book! Reading is a wonderful way to celebrate and learn about the contributions, stories, and influence of Hispanic and Latino communities on our nation’s history, culture, and achievements. Irvine Public Library staff recommend these titles for readers of all ages—children, teens, and adults:
My Papi has a Motorcycle, Isabel Quintero and Zeke Peña
In this beautifully illustrated picture book, a young girl zooms around her neighborhood with her papi on his motorcycle and observes the people and places she loves. A poignant homage to the enduring spirit of family and community, with an inland California setting that will feel familiar.
