For instance you can rent out books, articles or scientific periodicals from other California state universities and I was told also order from international Universities. The benefit of being a grad school is that you can have books up to one year until return date is due and rent out their cam corders and camera for an extended period of time . I started off at this school in 2017 and I definitely have seen many renovations through the years including the café, study rooms, tall shelving and interactive group desks, where group members can meet an use a TV to connect to class projects or the Internet. Till this day the library still has a glass case where they display a wide assortment of clubs, issues and events on campus, with nice added touches of regalia/memorabilia! I highly appreciate the fact that this library recycles electronics this can be found at the exit of the library in the main entrance.

City of Eureka as a visitor [Eureka CA]…read more We saw and did a lot more in the City of Eureka this time around when we revisited during the extended Memorial Day weekend 2025. Each below have their own a separate review. New to us: * Sequoia Park & Garden - the garden featured a wishing well and a gazebo. Lots of flowers in bloom which is generally between May and September. * Sequoia Park Zoo and The Redwood Sky Walk - The Sky Walk is accessible only through the Sequoia Park Zoo. Enjoyed both attractions! The suspension bridge was my highlight but I also really liked seeing the flamingos! * Fort Humboldt State Historic Park - cool history where future U.S. President, Ulysses S. Grant, served as a Captain and commander of all Union forces during the Civil War. This place is said to be haunted. * T.J. Maxx - just passing time before movies. As we were about to leave town to head back home we stopped by downtown on Memorial Day. Many businesses were open including: * Old Town Square - historic charm and for the most part I didn't see too many homeless people on the streets as many have mentioned in their reviews. We came around 10:00a. * Dick Taylor Craft Chocolate - located right on the waterfront of Humboldt Bay. Sampled some artisanal chocolates and enjoyed a Browned Butter Rice Krispy Treat from their cafe bar. * Los Bagels - tried their Scrambagel for the first time. Very good in organic sesame seed bagel. This is a cafe with Mexican and Jewish influence. Revisited: * The Donut Mill - Ham & Cheese Croissant for breakfast * Broadway Cinema - "The Last Rodeo" [an Angel Studios production] * Brick and Fire Bistro - featured in DD&D twice... first one in and we got to sit inside the main dining room this time. Had the Kobe Fettina Steak again. We've pretty much explored all we wanted to see in the City of Eureka so won't be back in a long while. We'll probably revisit again in a few years.

I have issues in many places over the years,in eureka most people are fairly pleasant and…read morehelpful,oddly enough the police are actually pretty cool(weird to say that from me) many interesting things to do ,the marinas are cool,tons of affordable dispensaries,many interesting places to eat, everything is affordable,it's colorful,not to loud in most areas. Problematic situations aren't your problem if you don't apply yourself to them ,housing is reasonable for California It does not have some of the general issues as often is other spots in the area such as power outages or poor connectivity It's kind of small but there is always a lot going on if you're into roaming and budgeting, actually fairly quiet at night There are a few negatives, quite a bit of homelessness and addicts but that's everywhere now. I've been homeless so it doesn't bother me aside empathy Thank you eureka police for being respectful and empathetic to people and not robbing shooting and beating people on a regular basis people here complain about the police far too much. I blame that on addicts and hippies and some old anti police attitude mess. I used to sell drugs in other states. These people complaining must have been doing something wrong as the cops here have a lot to deal with Also amazing weather almost all the time ,I don't mind the winter rains it's better than snowy subartict And the design and structural ambience is nice Best place in Humboldt in my experience so far and a favored spot in Cali Thank you for not discriminating eureka Thank you code enforcement for doing your jobs Thank you city workers and PGE and especially all federal benefit offices such as EBT,Medicaid,social security, section 8,also AAA, Avoid pro pacific,they aren't pros they will take your money and not do full repair ,hold your vehicle for as long as they can illegally lie about not being able to find parts or fix certain things and only fix what they want ,very disrespectful,may leave your vehicle off property open to vandalism in the streets,like job security Absolutely most horrible scum mechanics I've come across in forty years, probably on drugs or something I don't know anything about the lodge there hopefully the brothers are more well behaved ,mature and dedicated to what the organization is really about as opposed to other places I've been Eureka is a prime northern coast area. Please don't mess it up or start being pricks like everywhere else I really appreciate you

Monument for those buried at sea [Trinidad CA]…read more I wasn't sure if this Yelp page was for the concrete memorial lighthouse (or is it a replica) or of the one off of Edwards Street. Either way both are remembering those who perished at sea. The memorial on Edward's Street is a pyramid shaped marble slab engraved with sea gulls and the words "Lost At Sea," with names listed on the plaques. As more names were added through the years additional plaques were placed along the adjacent cement retaining wall. There were so many names it was sad to see and reminded me of the movie "the Perfect Storm" [2000] with George Clooney and Mark Wahlberg. The movie was based on a true story where the boat of the crew of six was caught in a storm and disappeared with no survivors. In 2012, we saw the memorial in Gloucester, Massachusetts inscribed with the names of those men. So sad. The memorials in Trinidad are free to visit. It looks like the lighthouse has moved a couple of times but it was at the harbor area where we saw the lighthouse and fog bell which served as a permanent location for the monument. Both memorial locations were adorned with wreaths during the Memorial Day weekend. The Axel Lindgren Memorial Trail on Edwards Street was currently not available due to erosion. Review #3777

Additional plaques were placed along the adjacent wall as names soon outgrew the smaller monument. There used to be a replica of the 1871 Trinidad Head Lighthouse here. It housed the original Fresnel lens and the bronze fog bell from 1898. But it was moved to Trinidad Rancheria Harbor a few years ago due to erosion. I was moved by the memorial when I passed it on a walk one early morning. Each year on the last Sunday in May, this community gathers to remember the names of the people recorded on the plaques.

There's no place like it on earth, and having traveled the globe over the years, every time I return remember why it's always been home. Where else can you surf 12footers in the morning then when you're done, drive maybe 30 minutes and go snowboarding on pristine powder, and after that just move down the mountain a few hundred feet below the snow line and fish on some of the finest waters anywhere - or hike through old growth forests with trees close to 30 stories tall right in your backyard. An outdoor paradise. A place where organic, local, sustainable, open-minded and community are a way of life - not just buzz words. Land of non-conformist, free thinkers, survivalists, independent wanderers and all things green minded. Remote from big cities, oftentimes very hard to access, where the redwoods meet the ocean and the sun sets on the path less traveled, and there is no easy way to it. There's so much more that makes Humboldt that one-of-a-kind place that it is. 5 Stars - Yep, Frumboldt cause there's no place quite like Humboldt... 00459

This is a beautiful modern pier nestled in the relatively calm waters of Trinidad. The "new pier"…read morereplaced the "old pier" several years ago, but the primary purpose remains the same: supporting commercial fishing and crabbing operations seasonally. The last hundred feet or so of the pier is designated only for commercial fishing operators, but the rest of this private pier is open to the public. The environment surrounding this pier is breathtaking, with huge headlands towering above either side of the pier, and a gorgeous view of the rocky coastline down towards Humboldt Bay. I visited this pier twice during Thanksgiving week, fishing and crabbing in the evening with my boys. We caught a few small rockfish and white croaker, and several small crabs that were well below the size limit. Can't wait to come back here.

It's California's northernmost oceanfront pier (if that kind of trivia excites you) - and indeed it's eighty miles south of the Oregon border. Just for your reference, the crabbing baskets were decoratively stacked at the end of the pier (photo: http://bit.ly/355OWY8), and the surrounding scenery was near-storybook. I didn't try the Seascape Restaurant at the front of the pier, but the next time I need chowder, I'll be so there. Pretty spot it is indeed. RELATED - Lost on the Lost Coast?

Have for years, always with the same group of people helping you through the process, always professional, friendly and kind. For an experience most folks dread almost as much as having a tooth pulled, our county clerks make it about as painless as can be. 8:30 am check in is the toughest part by far, once inside the juror selection room things move fairly quickly all considering that literally every person in the room just wants to get out of there. Fill out their paperwork, after about enough time for them to review it all - here comes the call, one by one those released and you obligation as a citizen has been met once more. Once again never selected, so until next year when we repeat this civic duty all over again. 4 Stars - for a rural county in northern California it moves pretty quick. 00671
