The Yuba County Library is the main library, located in Marysville, California, for the people of Yuba County, California, United States. This library is operated by the Yuba County Library Service, part of the county government of Yuba County. Founded in 1855, as the Marysville Library, the current building opened in 1977 as the replacement for the Packard Library.
In 1972, citizens of Yuba County petitioned the Board of Supervisors for county-wide library service. With the support of both the City of Marysville and the Board of Supervisors, the City Library became the Yuba County Library on July 1, 1972. Plans were also put in motion to either remodel the existing Library building or to construct a new building at that time. The main reasons behind the project were the fact that the building was behind in the building codes and had no access for those with physical disabilities. After deliberation, it was decided to build a new Library. The redevelopment area at Second and C Streets was chosen. The construction was funded by the Library Services Act, Yuba County, the City of Marysville, and the United States Office of Education. The new Library was opened to the public in June 1977. [3]
In 2019 a needs assessment report on the library was completed, which identified several modernization projects to be addressed over the coming years. [4] While the county had been budgeting for a renovation project, the Yuba County Library was fortunate to receive a state grant in 2022 to make more significant improvements on the building. [5]
While the library is undergoing its renovation, the main building on 303 Second Street will be closed to the public. The library has opened a temporary location to house the materials available for checkout, to load bus passes, and offer computer use at the Yuba County Government Building: 915 8th Street, Suite 113 Marysville, CA 95901.

The Sacramento Northern Railway was a 183-mile (295 km) electric interurban railway that connected Chico in northern California with Oakland via the state capital, Sacramento. In its operation it ran directly on the streets of Oakland, Sacramento, Yuba City, Chico, and Woodland. This involved multiple car trains making sharp turns at street corners and obeying traffic signals. Once in open country, SN's passenger trains ran at fairly fast speeds. With its shorter route and lower fares, the SN provided strong competition to the Southern Pacific and Western Pacific Railroad for passenger business and freight business between those two cities. North of Sacramento, both passenger and freight business was less due to the small town agricultural nature of the region and due to competition from the paralleling Southern Pacific Railroad.
