OCEANSIDE–The Oceanside Public Library is now offering military veterans a new one-stop shop to help them find information about services and resources available to them.

The Library has received a grant from the California State Library, in partnership with the California Department of Veterans Affairs (CalVet), to set-up a Veterans’ Resource Center on the second floor of the Civic Center Library.  The Center offers books and pamphlets on topics of specific interest to veterans and their families, such as state and federal benefits for veterans, health care, education and employment.

Trained volunteers will be available for walk-in appointments to answer questions and help fill out the My CalVet registration on Wednesdays from 12 to 4 p.m., or veterans can make an appointment by calling (760) 435-5571.
