The Scripps Ranch Friends of the Library (SRFOL) exists to support the operation of the Scripps Miramar Ranch Library Center. The SRFOL, through volunteer services, assists library patrons, hosts special events, operates a used book store (Grace's Book Nook), and provides financial support for acquisitions and community activities.

The SRFOL is an officially chartered, §501(c)(3) non-profit, educational organization. As such, donations made to the SRFOL are fully tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law under Internal Revenue Service tax regulations.

The library's parking lot is currently undergoing a much anticipated and long needed expansion. The first phase of the project is now complete, which is good news! The upper lot has reopened with a new configuration and a few more parking spaces than the original upper lot. However, the lower lot is now completely closed, so that the number of available parking spaces is even fewer than when the situation was reversed.

Furthermore, we have been advised by the City's Engineering Dept. that it will not be possible to allow access to the library from the overflow parking area on Meanley Drive during this phase of construction. Thus parking at the library will be even more adversely impacted than had been previously expected—and, most likely this will continue through the summer of 2025.

We are looking forward to completion of the expansion, which will add 47 more parking spaces to the original 70 plus a second exit to the parking lot with a traffic light.

Note: It is now possible to drive into the upper lot and quickly return books to the outside book drop to the left of the main entrance. The least busy times at the library include:

• Monday and Tuesday: 11:30 AM to 2:30 or 3:00 PM; 6:00 to 8:00 PM
• Wednesday - Friday: 9:30 AM to 2:30 or 3:00 PM; 5:00 - 6:00 PM
• Saturday: 3:00 or 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM
