I haven't been able to get an exact date on when the University Community branch opened, but I would definitely date around the 1960s or 70s, which is when many of the homes in University City were built. As with many branches, the library also serves as a community center for the area. It's a medium sized branch, and has a separate meeting room and children's area from its main center stacks and computers.

University Community
The University Community branch library is located in University City, a large area named for it's proximity to the University of California, San Diego. The University City community is essentially composed of two main areas and each has its own branch library. University Town Center (UTC), the region directly to the east of UC San Diego, is home to the North University Community branch, and the area has a large concentration of apartments, condominiums, shopping centers, and office parks. Divided from UTC by Rose Canyon, the southern part of University City is primarily a residential area with single family homes, and is home to the University Community branch.
