Manga (Japanese 漫画, IPA: [maŋga] ⓘ[a]) are comics or graphic novels originating from Japan. Most manga conform to a style developed in Japan in the late 19th century, and the form has a long history in earlier Japanese art. The term manga is used in Japan to refer to comics and cartooning. Outside of Japan, the word is typically used to refer to comics originally published in Japan.

Carmichael Library

The Carmichael Library is a community-focused Sacramento Public Library branch offering tech access, printing/scanning, a reservable meeting room, and a Seed Library—plus multilingual collections that support a wide range of neighbors and families.

A Quick Bit of History

Carmichael’s library story began in 1922 as a small county library station, later growing into a true public library with a brick building at Marconi & Clark in 1939. The current shared building at 5605 Marconi Avenue opened in 1964, followed by expansions and renovations—most notably a major remodel in 2006 that added a teen area, a children’s tower, and new meeting rooms.
