The most beautiful libraries in the world have sprung up across the planet, and according to an education blog, Cerritos is home to one of them.

Bestvalueschools.com chose the Cerritos Library as its 28th selection out of 50, along with libraries located across the globe in countries as exotic as Brazil, Switzerland, France and Norway.

The 88,000-square-foot library, completed in 2002, is the first public building in the U.S. clad in titanium, said Annie Hylton, city spokeswoman.

It was once called the “Millennium Library,” but the name never stuck. Now, it sports a variety of unique features including a salt water aquarium, an art collection, and an arts and crafts area.

The library is located at 18025 Bloomfield Ave. in Cerritos. More information is online at menu.ci.cerritos.ca.us.
