Overview
The Margaret K. Troke Library was dedicated on October 13, 1979. The library's namesake is the late Margaret Klausner Troke, who was the Director of the Stockton-San Joaquin County Public Library from 1946 to 1974. She was a tireless advocate who fought often and successfully to improve and expand library services in the county and state. Among other things, she is credited with expanding the number of branch libraries and starting mobile library services.
The Troke Branch Library is located in north Stockton and serves the largest patron base of all the Stockton branches. The branch offers a circulating collection of library materials in English, Spanish, Vietnamese, Chinese, Cambodian, Lao, Hmong, and Khmer and maintains permanent and non-circulating reference collections. Newspapers and magazines are available for browsing.
The Library offers computer workstations for general use, including printing, scanning, and free Wi-Fi throughout the building. Computers designated for children are available in the children's area. A public meeting space is available upon request. The library offers a variety of regularly scheduled programs for all ages and features dedicated children's and teen spaces.

Looks great since the update. The books are well kept and toys are in nice order. We love going to the events.
Pretty good library and they have security. Weird person was recording me and lying to security about me saying I was disruptive to her son (I did absolutely nothing) and goes out side and starts recording all the kids including me and my little sister that's in 6th grade and complains to security about everyone when they did nothing so yeah nice library, nice workers, but crazy visitors 😂
Such a special place. The staff is always welcoming and helpful!
Attended Preschool kids storytelling time and it is so inclusive and nice to beginners. I will definitely be using this place more for the extra programs and renewing my library card.
Love all of the resources you can utilize at this branch! The staff is friendly and to sign up for a library card is free! They have a wall that you can find multiple resources for your needs! Would highly recommend!
