She is very beautiful. It is not big but they have books from different areas. It has a computer space for information search and the most surprising thing is the Juan O'Gorman mural that covers 4 walls of the library. It is called Azcapotzalco Landscape and it shows part of the history of this place.

It is a small enclosure annexed to the construction of the House of Culture of Azcapotzalco. It has tables and chairs equal to those of other surviving public libraries in Mexico City; same model (fabric color, geometry, comfort, size) that I remember from another more than 30 years ago. It has, because it is located inside an old building, thick columns and a very high ceiling with six skylights. The walls covered with wood at half height - approximately 2 m - in dark tones of very good condition, give a peaceful and pleasant view, crowned on three of its walls by a mural entitled "Landscape of Azcapotzalco", whose plaque is located On a dividing wall, he records the author, Architect Juan O'Gorman, in 1926. The access is a wooden gate with two leaves and the large windows are also made of wood, all varnished to give the same tone and shine to the material, achieving a good combination with the construction and the tables. Although the collection is small compared to other libraries, it offers the service of using computers for a period of two hours.

Small library in the center of azcapotzalco. It has computers and a small but well-organized collection of books.
