El Dorado County Library | Cameron Park Branch

Super knowledgeable and helpful staff. Great place to read, work or relax.

I’ve been to this library a few time. You can buy or rent a book for a dollar. They have good selections. Staff are very helpful.

Sufficient parking. Some spots to charge an electric vehicle. Wheelchair accessible parking and ramp. No automatic door opener, but friendly people will help you open the door if needed. After hours book drop right outside the main entrance, with another book drop inside by the librarian's desk. Restrooms to the side as you enter. Kids books and small play area on one side of the library; adult and teen section on the other. A room or two you can reserve for a meeting. A few computers you can use. There are also homeschool materials, book group kits, and dementia support kits that you may check out by filling out a form at the front desk. The librarians are great; I've appreciated their help on multiple occasions. I think one is a registered proctor for tests. They have some library activities for multiple age groups, which are best noted by looking up their calendar online or grabbing a printed calendar at the library. It's important to note that the times the library opens and closes varies by day (Mon/ Wed/ Fri days are different than Tues/Thurs). It is a smaller library and the El Dorado library system is not as extensive as a larger city, but for a library this size, it is fantastic and the librarians wonderful. It's a wonderful resource to this community, and I've had a lot of positive experiences here. Note to El Dorado: it would be helpful if you added an option to pay fines online. Also, the system for renewing books might need to be reviewed. I've had more than one experience where I've renewed library books, and the system says I successfully renewed the library books, only to receive an email a day or two later that they're overdue, and I'm not sure why.

Wonderful library. Wonderful staff. Wonderful selection of books.

If you visit make sure to wear a t-shirt. They keep the inside like a furnace.
